Nanowrimo Tip of the Day - Your title counts as words toward your novel!

If you don't write anything else today, play with a title to get a few words!

Hrmm.. Weird. I would put the Title at the end since, to me, it'd be a play on the content and not something specific. But good to know.

900 words down and I just stopped for more coffee and a 'what's going on in the world' check. Now back to it as I have so much more to get done today after my writing.

Hope everyone is getting lots of words down.

laruss · 11-01-2012, 11:31 AM

1931 words completed and it is only 10:30 am. YAY for day 1.
I hope to get back to it later today, but I met my quota and have other work to get done.

2250. Still toying a little tonight.

Jumping in for my first NaNoWriMo. Procrastinated on this for the last 3 years. Ready to get down to writing.

Thinking that I have to think less about what I am focused on and simply write.

Medusa · 11-01-2012, 09:06 PM

I havent written yet today but am going to slap on some headphones and get down to business in a bit!

You can not edit, doubt yourself, or otherwise stunt or sabotage your success.

Lots of details here:
http://www.nanowrimo.org/en

You can buddy up with pals on the website and share snippits of your work, share your current word count, cheer each other on, etc.

It's fun!

Who is in?

Wow, I really wish I had the brain cells left at the end of the day to participate...With the cold weather kicking in, utility billing calls are coming in like crazy...I have nothing left to offer at the end of the day!

Have fun ya'll!

It's a fantastic concept, and especially inspiring to see people making time for writing, come rain or shine or flashing disco lights. I wish all the participants the best of luck and most of all lots of awesome fun! Get those numbers crunching!

Just write what you can, when you can. It is still more words then if you don't write at all.

Nice work. No word count for me yet, I am behind. Or in denial. Or both.

Sun · 11-02-2012, 09:09 AM

1317 word count. Denial over.

easygoingfemme · 11-02-2012, 09:02 PM

A saving mishap lost me about 1000 words last night. Had to play catch up today.
Now at 3009.
