Can you feel it?  Somewhere deep inside, you have a novel yet to be written? A plot line refusing to vanish even though you're hip-deep in edits on another story? Or maybe there's a character begging to come to life?

Well then, pull up a chair and flex those typing fingers. Because it's NaNo time.


For the unitiated (that's a word. Look it up in Sue's dictionary), NaNoWrimo stands for "National Novel Writing Month." For thirty days, a writer does what they do best and writes, madly banging out 50,000 words. Maybe they've pre-plotted, created character wheels and scene breakdowns. Maybe they haven't.

Just thinking about it makes me excited!

There's nothing like the flash of inspiration. The joyful free-for-all that lasts for a short thirty days. The willful lack of editing that goes on during a Wrimo session.

Call it madness. I call it sheer inspiration.

So while my fantasy Fairless is in the capable hands of an editor, I think I'll take a break from editing and free up some creative brain cells. I have the next story plotted. It's time to NaNo-up and write that bad boy.

Interested in being a buddy? You can find me under "Letters to Rosa." Hope to see you there!
