NaNoWriMo


Because I am crazy...

They convinced me. I've decided to go far, far beyond the challenge of writing this blog or even 100 words a day (which I did for 5 months in 2001 and 2002) and commit myself to writing 50,000 words between November 1 and midnight of November 30. Fortunately, the only thing that counts is quantity, so the "novel" I end up with is expected to be bad. I'll report now and then on my progress, if I make any. At the moment I am agonizing about plot.

Oh Boy. Lets see; 50,000 words is 175 pages and November has 30 days. So, thats a little less than 6 pages a day, every day. That's only about 3 times what you did on the 100 words effort. I guess the tough thing will be that you have to string it all together. Best of luck. Love, Dad
