It's hard to believe, but October has come and gone already (and with it, Halloween and a whole month's worth of horror movies). 2011 is quickly coming to a close. The whole year has been an interesting mix of ups and downs. There has been little progress in terms of writing, sadly, but I am finding the motivation to work on my projects.
In fact, I plan on taking a little exercise in motivation quite soon. I discovered that next month is National Novel Writing Month, so I decided to accept the challenge of writing a new novel from scratch and reach 50000 words by November 31st. I've already got a cool new idea in mind, with a notebook's worth of designs and ideas. It'll be a spacey sci-fi novel, and it's current working title is Exodus. When November 1st hits, I plan on starting it off!
To facilitate this, I will be spending the next week on holiday. Nothing like a relaxing laid-back excursion to the highlands to do some writing.
When the NaNoWriMo thing starts, I'll be sure to start posting excepts and a word count. Stay tuned for more!
