It’s half way though NaNoWriMo and I’ve over half way through my novel. I hit 28k last night which is over half way to the goal of 50k but I’m concentrating on actually finishing my story this year. In years past I’ve hit the 50k without issue, but my story didn’t end until over 60k (and let me tell you trying to finish a NaNo without all the community support is hard).<\/p>\n
This year’s novel is a different genre for me. While it’s not coming as easily as I hoped, it’s not nearly as hard as I feared. <\/p>\n
I’m treading into the waters of dark fantasy. My main character is a young man who is hitting ‘second puberty’ where strange abilities are manifesting. He had no idea that he wasn’t a plain human, or that there was any such classification. Let’s just say he’s had an interesting couple of weeks thus far in the story. <\/p>\n
The social side of NaNo is rocking this year, there are so many more events and even more people involved than ever before. I am truly thankful to have these folks in my life. <\/p>\n
Good luck to everyone doing NaNo and to those just writiing, or to those who need a little luck today. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
