The Time Has Come!

It's October, which means...sign up for NaNoWriMo has begun! Click HERE to get to their site! Signing up is incredibly easy, and I also suggest looking at the FAQs and the About NaNoWriMo if you're a first time participant.

And I've decided that I am doing NaNoWriMo. I may have to get up at 5:30 AM, but I will do it, and I will finish. I hope.

So, as you can imagine, this is going to effect my posts. Here are some of the things you'll see through October:

1. How to outline your novel idea
2. How to cure writer's block
3. Incentives for writing
4. How to find your writing style (and stick with it)
5. How to inspire yourself
6. When (and when not) you should stress
7. My NaNoWriMo plans for this year

And those are just seven of them!

One more thing: Guinevere, you asked if you could use an idea for your blog. Go right ahead! =)

Also, if you want to read some more reasons for pseudonyms, then just look under the comments in my posts of pseudonyms. Illunse had some great things to say!

See you all pretty soon!

I wish I could write well enough to try something like this. :) Oh well we all have our gifts! I'll definetly be looking back on that advice though... who knows it might awaken something in me! lol :P Goodluck! I know lots of people who are entering.

Love,
Bleah

Oh no, Izori! Don't remind me! *Hides from NaNo month*

I did it last year and had a wonderful time, but this year I'm way, way, WAY too busy. Good luck to you all who are going to be scribbling away! I promise I'll comment on those blogs-of-NaNoers as much as possible to make up for my non-participation ;)

Yay! I love your advice! It spurs me on, and as I am working on a 200 page novel that needs to be 100 percent done by the end of December(For a BIG writing contest!...I could get my novel published if I win!) This will really help me.
I would do nanowrimo this year except that I am doing school and my novel writing...I've got a big school load, like you(Working on Apologias chemistry and some pretty time consuming history programs is the hardest), and I am pursuing violin with a vengeance, So Nano just had to go. I just about cheered when you said You would do it if you have to get up at 5:30. Boy, what determination! You go, girl! I will be visiting your blog a lot!

Have fun with Nano!
