We’ve reached the halfway point of November and NaNoWriMo. How is your writing going?
Maybe you’ve fallen off the pace or missed several days of writing or just never got it together. That’s okay. You could decide to start right now. And when people ask what you did in 2018, you could answer, “I started my novel/short story/memoir/poetry collection/non-fiction book.” It’s really that easy.
If the thought of writing 50K gives you the willies, set a goal that works for you: 50 words, 50 pages, 50 minutes, 50 hours. You can even sign up at NaNoWriMo with your custom goal. Because every writer deserves support and encouragement — and heaven knows we all need it.
To that end, check out this blog post by Geoff Le Pard with some lovely pictures and ideas that may inspire or comfort or just plain make you smile. Enjoy!

And then get to work. NaNoWriMo is not about winning; it’s about seizing the opportunity to write.

thanks for the shout out Jennifer; and how goes your nano?
It’s going well, Geoff. Not noveling this year (maybe someday?) but writing consistently, which was the goal. How goes yours?
Oh actually v good. Finished last night at 42000 so rather delighted. Not working full time really helps that
