The pages are still blank, but there is a mirac­u­lous feel­ing of the words being there, writ­ten in invis­i­ble ink and clam­or­ing to become vis­i­ble. ~Vladimir Nabakov

Sun­day is Novem­ber 1^st and it marks the begin­ning of National Novel Writ­ing Month or NaNoW­riMo for short. Basi­cally I will be attempt­ing to write fifty thou­sand words dur­ing the month of Novem­ber. I’ve wanted to par­tic­i­pate the last two years but never did-so this year I’m finally going to jump in and attempt this.

Need­less to say posts next month will prob­a­bly be spo­radic and not nearly as pro­lific. I have a feel­ing I’ll be vlog­ging a lot. On the sev­enth I’m host­ing a Twi­light Saga New Moon Party, and of course at the end of the month is New Moon’s release, Thanks­giv­ing and my dear friend “Mimi” will be com­ing up for a visit all that week. My goal is to have most of my writ­ing accom­plished by the 20^th so that I won’t have to worry about writ­ing too much while she’s visiting.

I hope to develop some new habits next month, mainly a writ­ing sched­ule, that makes my writ­ing more con­sis­tent and reg­u­lar. I’ve been work­ing on a novel for the last year-I think with some good new habits I just may be able to fin­ish it this year!

Wish me luck and lots of cre­ativ­ity with NO procrastination!

NaNoW­riMo 2009
