• Video: NaNoWriMo Tips to Meet Halfway Mark

  
  Write From Karen — Authority: 133
  Hello fellow WriMos! We’re nearly at the halfway mark, which means you should be close to 25,000 words. But don’t worry if you’re not, you still have the entire weekend. Just shoo your family away, fire up that laptop/computer/pad & pencil and WRITE. Don’t think about it too much, just dig in. As you ...

  Awalkabout's Weblog — Authority: 108
  Yesterday was a wild day. I had no clients, no court scheduled, and planned to spend the time working on my crazy November goals. 2,000 words at least. Maybe 3,000. Move the girl right through the funeral home scene where she discovers the truth behind– Then I got the call about 9 a.m. that the Captain was ...

• The Road to Virginia (Another Personal and #NaNoWriMo Post)

  
  Orient Lodge — Authority: 132
  I spent about eight hours on the road driving down to Virginia yesterday. It was a grey day, with brief periods of rains along the way. For the first couple hours, I listened to the news. Then, I switched over to a book on tape. Kim had picked up More Tales of the City by Armistead Maupin and On the Road by ...

• One of the Best Books of 2009?

  
  Tropic Temper — Authority: 126
  NaNoWriMo news first. Tomorrow is the halfway mark. So theoretically, everyone should have 25,000 words completed. Im already over that, but then I am aiming for a full count of at least 60,000 rather than 50,000, so by tomorrow night I want to be on 30,000. Hmm. Well see. Today I had a write-in with some of the ...

  Reading, Writing, & Stuff That Makes Me Crazy — Authority: 128
  Dreaming is an act of pure imagination, attesting in all men a creative power, which if it were available in waking, would make every man a Dante or Shakespeare. ~H.F.

  Four Minutes Older — Authority: 116
  Elizabeth’s jaw dropped. “I know it’s a lot to ask,” Todd said quickly. “But you’re the only person at school who knows what’s really going on between me and Ken. And you’re a really special friend. It would mean so much to us if you would do it.” “Todd, I’m really flattered, but I can’t,” ...

• What’s In a Name?

  
  From Smiler, with Love. — Authority: 123
  I can’t believe I named one of my main characters Marcus. Makes me cringe every time I write out his name (sorry to all the Marcus’s out there...). It’s just a placeholder, but still. Theres also a Palmer. Palmer? Where the heck did I get that one from? Oh right, this scandinavian mystery I’m reading right ...

• EndWeek NaNoPost

  
  Paperback Writer — Authority: 527
  Since the midweek NaNoPost Ive been dealing with things that dont belong in my writing space that I let get into my writing space. Why? Well, I had the best of intentions. It was important. I thought I could sort it out quickly and get back to work. And I didnt, not for two days, and it wrecked me and derailed ...

• Autumn Camera Games & Another Nano Update

  
  Bookfoolery and Babble — Authority: 127
  Nano update, first. The best-laid plans of mice and men have done a little ganging aft agley in the blog-hopping territory because I am still having a grand old time with National Novel Writing Month. Technically, Im writing slowly and Im still behind on my word count at a mere 13,288 words; but, I like my characters, ...

• Day 13: 22,422 words

  
  Lake Neuron — Authority: 130
  I didn’t really do any writing last night — I had a sinus headache and just didn’t feel very good, and I knew I was ahead of pace and could afford to take the night off. It was back to the grindstone tonight, though. I didn’t quite make my 1,667 words, but I wrote enough to keep me ahead of my overall pace. ...

  Chaos Theory — Authority: 148
  Just as I get sent this picture in e-mail comes todays NaNo pep talk: "Australia is comparable in size to the continental United States,but almost everyone lives on the coast.

• Oops.

  
  The Knotted Thicket — Authority: 124
  Time to call in the evil clowns and cowboys and attacking robots! Ive run out of plot. How do you run out of plot in a book that is so far only 23,000 words long and probably will be wrapped up by 35,000 words? I dont know, but I just managed it. Of course Im not entirely out of plot. The plotlines arent resolved yet ...
