Go GO NaNoWriMo ....ohhh
15 years ago
When the lion speaks, he roars cause that is what they do...
(First thank you to all those that listened last time. I am surprised and humbled that you took the time to read me. Thanks. )
It is that time of year again. It is getting cooler. Computers are warming up as word processors are slowly being updated. And everywhere the sound of knuckles cracking is heard. It is that time when the thoughts of storytellers pro and not turn to the single most important event of the year.
NaNoWriMo is coming.
November is National Novel Writing Month. It is celebrated by thousands of authors by writing novels. Now you don't have to be in the US, any nation will do. If you have ever heard that everyone has a novel in them, you are right. And in a lot of ways that is what this exercise is about.
All you have to do to have a Qualified novel is write 50,000 words in 30 or less days. Some of you have figured out that this is not a novel but more a novella. Still it qualifies as a novel. it does not have to be good. it does not have to be great. It really does not have to be grammatically correct. It just has to be yours.
You can write about just about anything. Fiction or none fiction. it can be erotic or it can be a children's book with a years worth of bed time stories in it for parents to read their kids. Any top it is fine.
What are the rewards? You will have written a book. Often you will become a better writer and RPer for the experience. Sometimes you can have it published for fun but mostly it is to have a book that you wrote.
If you want to try it ...then try it. Just trying to do it sometimes will teach you things about your skills and yourself.
You don't need me to tell you more but I will give you some advice (As if anyone would ever ask me.)
Go to the Website for the NaNoWriMo - http://www.nanowrimo.org and sign up. (There are writing parties and writing buddies and lost of resources here. )
Get yWriter 5 (http://www.spacejock.com/yWriter5.html)- You can use any Word processor but this one really works well for NaNoWriMo and included functions to help you write, keep your novel secure and keep things organized. Not to mention it is FREE!!!!!
Come up with some topic to write about. And think about as many ways you can think to talk about it. You don't have to correct anything as you write. You can just write the story you want to write. You don;t even have to spell check! Think that Star Wars Episode one sucked and you have 10,000 complaints about Jar jar..then do it. Want to write a novel that is about what happens when a Wolf bitch and a vixen decide to take on the males that keep trying to hump them.. go for it. Want to write about the conversations that you have had with your spirit guide over your time together. Power to you. The possibilities are endless.
Lastly if you are doing it, let others that like what you do.. know you are doing it. If you are a Furry Writer put it in your Journal or post that here. Writing is lonely sometimes but easier when you know others are doing the same thing.
So there is no cost to any of this. You can have fun and at the end of the year you can complete a novel.. for free.
Brother and sister furs sing with me..(Sing to the tune of Go GO Godzilla)
