My total word count for November so far is 4,428. 2,600 of that is my “new” novel. I still can’t believe I just threw the other idea off to the side. I dunno this new one has come pretty easily.
But I’m still unsure of what exactly is going on in this new novel. I guess that’s what makes this fun. I never imagined myself a pantser but now I wish I had decided to be one from the beginning. It’s thrilling!
My MC is a female, freshman in college named Skyla (Sky for short). All I know is she gets herself into some trouble (re: LOTS of trouble) and has to figure her way out of it.
I added a very rough excerpt to my NaNo profile. I’m hoping a title comes to me soon. I’m terrible at titles, but I want to have one!
I hope everyone else had a decent day one! Can’t wait to see where this novel goes tomorrow!
Wow! Over 4,000 that’s pretty good for day one, and this new idea of yours sounds interesting. You should put some sort of excerpt or something from your story on your ever day. That would be so cool!
Maybe I’ll flip back through and find a snippet to share from what I wrote today 🙂
That would be really interesting to see how other writer write and to see what’s kind of going on in their story.
By the way, how do you get the Countdown on your blog? It’s really cool
It’s a widget. In customize -> widgets. It’s called ‘Milestone’
Ok, thank so much.
Keep going, girl! Ride that new idea! This is NaNoWriMo. No time for doubt. Just keep writing.
That’s impressive for a first day! I’m a pantser myself. Normally, I plan all the time but for NaNoWriMo the idea of just writing without planning sounds brilliant and makes me feel less stressed. When I plan certain things, I realize I get a writer’s block when the pressure of time is weighing upon my shoulders 🙂
Pantsed my first two wrimos, totally planned this one. We’ll see how that goes. Here’s a title for you…Sky’s the Limit. 🙂
way to go! I added you as a buddy to my own Nanoprofile. More blogger buddies the merrier.
