I've signed up for the November Nano twice before and it was too overwhelming to catch up if I missed writing even a couple of days. <br />Good luck to you!<br />D.E.

The fact that I can choose my own word count makes all the difference to me. Best wishes on your revisions!<br /><br />Christina -- It's going to be a bit of a whirlwind, and I was a little concerned about "missing summer." But it's interesting to see several people say they might prefer July.

But in the future, July would probably be a much better novel writing month than November. I've done NaNo twice and completed two novels.

But I'm trying to stretch my speed a little. The past few years, I've done so, and now I'd like to see if I can do it a little more. :)Marciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10006966091789130047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9054081895459294120.post-56201274304630922242013-06-20T15:22:01.532-05:002013-06-20T15:22:01.532-05:00Good luck.

As for my guilty pleasure, it's ice cream. <br /><br />Vijaya -- Yup, if not now, when? If there's a good honest answer for "when," then fine, but if not, chances are now's the time.

You are so wise to set reasonable goals.<br /><br />I have never tried Nano, and in the summer, my goals are extremely modest with children at home from school. I'm tackling a revision, writing some shorts, and journaling poolside :)Vijayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876606729146077830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9054081895459294120.post-21686856584567568792013-06-20T08:38:30.401-05:002013-06-20T08:38:30.401-05:00Good luck!
