NaNoWriMo, Day One

High Tide Episodes 22: A Little Tenderness and 23:  Meanwhile, Back on the Yacht, and 24: Kiss That Frog are all live on Kindle Vella. Go forth, read, enjoy.

Today: 1,711 words
Total: 1,711 words

So today is the start of November, which is also the month where thousands of writers around the world throw their sanity, cleaning routines, and diets to the wind and attempt to crank out 50,000 words in a month, which breaks down to 1,667 words a Day. Hence the name National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo for short.

I’ve been participating in NaNoWriMo since 2011, and while that first novel never got finished all of the others I’ve done have. This year I’m using High Tide as my project because I need about 50,000 words to finish it and hey, perfect opportunity, right? To be honest I want to get it finished before the end of the month because I have family coming on December 1st and I need to do a buttload of cleaning before then, but I am Olde™ and we will see how well that works.

Anyway, today I’ve written 1,711 words which puts me above the daily required amount, so that’s a nice way to kick off NaNoWriMo. Onwards!

About Nicola Cameron

Nicola Cameron has had some interesting adventures in her life -- ask her sometime about dressing up as Tietania, Queen of the Bondage Fairies. When not writing, she wrangles cats, makes dolls of dubious and questionable identity, and thanks almighty Cthulhu that she doesn’t have to work for a major telecommunications company any more (because there’s BDSM, and then there’s just plain torture...).
