Creeva’s World 2.0

In just 2 days starts NANWRIMO 2007 -(National Novel Writ­ing Month) the goal is to write a 50000 word novel in the time span of one month. I attempted last year and blogged about it, yet did not make it past the first chapter.

This year instead of tak­ing a straight plot off the top of my head I’m going to draw from my own expe­ri­ences and attempt to craft a tale that is a fic­tion­al­ized account of my high schools years. Of course names will be changed to pro­tect the inno­cent, some inci­dents will be left out, oth­ers will be added to fuel the imag­i­na­tion and make it a bet­ter over all story.

These things I hope will help me write a novel — a goal that I’ve been work­ing on for 1.5 decades now, but it’s always been one of those things where I would get to it even­tu­ally. I’m hop­ing this go around works out in a way that is viable. I’m still up in the air if I will be pub­lish­ing the story on the blog, that is all depen­dent on the final qual­ity. I do know when Decem­ber starts I will be work­ing on some heavy edit­ing (if I make it that far) so it wouldn’t be a Dec. 1st release.

I do think I have the will power and drive to accom­plish this — I know this upcom­ing Fri­day night I will be up late try­ing to pound through a decent per­cent­age of size. I am also aware that my recent join­ing of two com­mu­nity bands may hin­der some time I would have spent writ­ing — but I think it’s a wor­thy trade off.

All I can say is wish me luck and I’ll be doing my best to post my word count sta­tus every day in November.
