Your plan sounds good too, because even if you aren't "officially" Nanoing, you can still soak up some of the motivational spirit in the blogosphere this month. That's the best thing about Nano for me, because writing can be a pretty lonely business...

My track record isn't great as I have never reached the magic total (and this is my fourth year). Last year's was my favourite effort so far, but unfortunately the file is unreadable so that is 10,000 words lost. Just goes to show how important backing up is, and in more than one place... It is this novel that I am completely re-writing and working on :-) All the best with novel 2 and your own version of NaNo Anita.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17854475822366615748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7837881372529525579.post-77049143661556512852012-11-02T10:09:09.521+00:002012-11-02T10:09:09.521+00:00Hi Jules, lovely to hear from you!

I've already got 12,000 words down, so kind of hoping that if I achieve the 50K, I've virtually got a whole draft by December. Then the plan is to edit and polish over next few months to submit to NWS next May - that is the plan or the plot but as a renowned pantser, I'll probably fall off the wagon by Monday. I'd probably be best following your model and just aiming for hte 1,000 words a day, which is more realistic! Glad to hear you're busy on no 2. Hope to see you at Winter party.
