Greetings Earthlings (she said as if anyone read this and it wasn't just a place to organize thoughts),
I decided to start this blog because I have made the probably foolish commitment to do NaNoWriMo this year. If you are not familiar, NaNoWriMo is short for National Novel Writing Month and the goal is to write a 50k word novel during the month of November. Intrigued? Check it out here: nanowrimo.org
I have a story. Sort of. I have... a setting. I have a concept. It all came from a dream. I won't go into details here, because heaven forbid I post spoilers before I've even started, but basically I have a concept and a very vague, nebulous idea of what I want to do with it. We'll see where it goes from there.
My intention is to post my novel progress each evening before I go to bed. I may even post some thoughts, like this, about the writing process. But come on, who's got time for that when you're doing a Nano?
I welcome your thoughts and comments (if anyone ever decides to read this) but be well forewarned that I won't read or respond to any of them until December. Why? Because I need to dive into my story headfirst and if I read your comments (which I'm sure will be insightful and very helpful) I will have the desire to go back and edit. Editing is not part of Nano. Editing is for December.
We'll see you then,
Jessie May
