I'm doing Nano, but I have no delusions about getting to 50K - my goal is to try and finish the first pass of my current WIP, or get as close to it as possible. It also gives me the excuse to try and bump up my writing time for a month or so. That's my goal really with Nano this year.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00205025424737829934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1114922669156042352.post-2918546146325231382010-10-25T10:47:03.018-03:002010-10-25T10:47:03.018-03:00Good luck on getting your GH entry ready.

I spent Saturday cleaning and Sunday being a bum on the couch watching football and bull riding. No writing or reading. I needed a break.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05663703767093923242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1114922669156042352.post-51070221208503062442010-10-24T08:15:09.641-03:002010-10-24T08:15:09.641-03:00I'm definitely doing NaNo. In fact, I'm ju...I'm definitely doing NaNo. In fact, I'm just finishing the final version of my vampire story which is the result of two different NaNo's. And I know several writers who sold their NaNo stories!<br /><br />Personally, I find the process pulls a different kind of writing from me that would never happen if I wasn't trying to fill word count. It gets very stream-of-consciousness and gives me insight into my characters that I never would obtain otherwise. So I can't wait for this year!<br /><br />So exciting to hear you're thisclose to The End, Anne!Julia Phillips Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15392455413201190775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1114922669156042352.post-54335761865412264752010-10-22T18:04:29.776-03:002010-10-22T18:04:29.776-03:00Congrats on being so near the end, Anne.

I don't think there's any way I can find time this year. I think I do better work when I take my time.Jennie Marslandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01899825119251198365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1114922669156042352.post-7752586322528189982010-10-22T17:38:13.182-03:002010-10-22T17:38:13.182-03:00Thanks Rachael.
