NaNoWriMo
Posted by tdhurst on October 30, 2008
It’s a novel. Written in a month.
I have no idea how to write a I novel. I have both written words and read many novels, so I suppose it can’t be too hard.
My story? Mostly True Tales from my Somewhat Fictional Life. It’s me and what I’ve done, only…better. I won’t lie, but I might embellish a bit (her tits were huge!, for example) for effect.
Goddamn I’m excited. I’ve never even written with a writing partner before. Cool stuff.

Want a hint from someone who has both “won” and lost at NaNo? Keep it simple. Begin with some idea of how you want the thing to end, and you’ll be less likely to wind up in some corner with no way out. If it doesn’t have an end, it’s just one heck of a lot of words.
