Just keep writing...and don't look back (at least not until December).<br /><br />Pat<br />Critter AlleyPat Wahlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01138619912065680084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795370529696691543.post-65793231109359029212012-11-15T08:45:25.534-06:002012-11-15T08:45:25.534-06:00Writers who participate in NaNo have my admiration...Writers who participate in NaNo have my admiration.<br />Alas, I'm not among them. <br /><br />Guess you could say I'm a NaNoNoShow.<br /><br />Love your list!<br />Donna Volkenannthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04540727800410234483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795370529696691543.post-52929904202783426172012-11-06T08:08:48.975-06:002012-11-06T08:08:48.975-06:00Having puked out 50,000 words plus in 30 days, two...Having puked out 50,000 words plus in 30 days, two years in a row, I actually loved the discipline of it. This year rather than word count, I'm going for hours or minutes I'm actually writing or revising. I've found it interesting. Guess I should go blog about it. Loved your NaNo terms!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05296300032567383021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795370529696691543.post-3880298400733706812012-11-05T05:56:48.585-06:002012-11-05T05:56:48.585-06:00Nana has had no NaNo time what with with funerals ...Nana has had no NaNo time what with with funerals and hospital visits and babysitting.

Sit at the keyboard and puke it all out (okay, well, she didn't say it that way). It will be smelly and require much revision and editing, but don't worry about that. Just write. If you try to edit as you go you'll never get done.Lisa Ricard Clarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05048410207952052295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795370529696691543.post-81011788350055324102012-11-04T18:38:01.069-06:002012-11-04T18:38:01.069-06:00I am trying to bulk up on my word count while I ca...I am trying to bulk up on my word count while I can, because later, I know I will need that buffer. <br /><br />I think one of the best bits of advice I've gotten is--"Just write it down. Don't worry if it's perfect at this stage. You can worry about that later, when you're revising."<br /><br />I think if you have a story idea you like, as long as you keep working on it after NaNo is over, THAT is more important than writing 50,000 words in one month (said she who is probably not going to make it).Sioux Roslawskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924021828536277618noreply@blogger.com
