Ok so, every year without fail I try and do nanowrimo (which is in November) and I always fail miserably and blame it on birthdays and trying to get organised for christmas. So this year I thought I would take part in camp nanowrimo which is the same thing but in July.
So far, IM AHEAD OF MY WORDCOUNT.
This is good, so far, although my storyline is terrible, but nano is about quantity not quality so Im trying to ignore the inner editor in me and just go for it.
Even if I get to the end and realise I wrote 50K words of tripe, its a good exercise to get into the habit of writing often and consistently.
But yeah, Im feeling good about this year :)

Nanowrimo
(Its a bit early I know)
If you aren't in the know about Nanowrimo, it is National Novel Writing Month in which lunatics and literary addicts attempt (and fail in my case) to write 50,000 words in November.
I have been a part of Nanowrimo for 5 years now and havent completed it yet. Theres always something else that needs doing, or I get writers block, or Im pregnant, or I have a small human to look after.
This year will no doubt be no different as to whether I actually suceed or not. But this year will be slightly different as some of my friends are doing it as well and we have formed a facebook group so we can egg each other on.
Im not sure how things are going to be in November so I dont want to over-think too much about what to write. But I was thinking about some sort of parenting non-fiction manual. In a sort of blog style. I dunno, we`ll see what I come up with!
Here is my profile if you decide to join up and be my friend!
