What a Novel Idea!

Do we know what we're doing? Heck no! But the Tumblrs on this site have had a crazy notion to write a novel at some point, and this is our chance. NaNoWriMo is a self-motivated race to complete a 50,000 word novel between November 1st and 30th. Let the crazy begin!


Silly notions of when it’s best to write

For some reason, I keep telling myself that I only want to write in the evening. I’ve always been a night owl. When it’s time to go to bed, I start feeling creative, efficient, organised.

But I was just thinking about it now. I’m an MA student. I’ve had my three classes for the week already. I’m going into town to get a few things today, but that’s pretty much all I’m planning to do before dinner. So why am I not writing? I don’t have any official commitments until it’s Monday again. What a fool I’ve been for not writing in the day! It works even better, I’d say, as in the evenings I like to hang out with my husband, or we have friends around or go to their houses. I end up staying up too late, and writing a little bit before I need to sleep.

So I’m going to write another 1000 words before I go into town, just to get there. Just hit play on my NaNoWriMo 2009 playlist, and go.
