NaNoWrimo, 13 days to go…
NaNoWrimo is t-minus 13 days to go!
The NaNoWrimo Boards are now working perfectly, most if not all the kinks have been worked out so if you’ve been staying away from them due to the snail’s pace, feel free to sign up now.
If anyone wants to friend me, username is rkbentley.
Judging from the traffic on the Rhode Island Board looks to be a good amount of returning people and new peeps.
Unlike last year I didn’t have a ton of paid time off to take so I managed to get the week of Thanksgiving off (except Black Friday, blech!) so that will offset the black hole known as Thanksgiving.
A few recommondations to people who are doing this either for the first time or repeat offenders:
1. Swing by a few of the meet ups. Meet your fellow writers. It helps to see other people write and get the creative juices flowing.
2. Grab a writing buddy for Word War. This will guarantee you’ll get a swift kick to the head when your behind.
3. Download the NaNoWrimo Report Card so you can keep track of when you’ll end. If you manage to get done before Thanksgiving consider yourself lucky.
4. Auto-Save is your friend. Time to open up whatever App you’re using and find the Auto Save Option and turn it on now.
4b. Go out and buy a nice flash drive, nothing too big or nothing too cheap. The idea is back up yer shit. God forbid you open up your laptop and it sputers into the grave.
That’s about it for now…
