NaNoWriMo 2010 – The Starting Gun

Ah, November…crisp air, apple cider, pumpkin pie, Thanksgiving Holiday, madly cramming words into a wordprocessor…

It’s NaNoWriMo time once again, and once again I’ll be trying my hand.  Last year I made a pretty meager start, and then ended up traveling on business for 3 out of four weeks in November…essentially killing my chance at doing NaNoWriMo.  This year I am expecting to be at home, at my desk, and at the grindstone for the entire time.  I have a week of vacation planned for the Thanksgiving Holidy, and grand plans to actually “win” this year.

My NaNoWriMo ID is SerialStoryteller and I’ll be tracking my stats here as well as including the occasional excerpt from the day’s work and writing about the hows and whys of writing.

It might be interesting, it might not; but I’m doing this…I’m not letting the universe hold me back.

As a friend tweeted a few weeks ago:

“A year from now, you’ll wish you had started today.”
