October 1st! You know what that means? That there’s only 1 more month before National Novel Writing Month begins!
Are you planning to participate this year? I will be. This will be NaNo number 8 for me. I have completed the 50,000 words to win every year since 2010, and I expect this year to be no different.
Maybe you would like to win NaNo, too!
My online course just launched, How to Win NaNoWriMo. These are my strategies that I use to make sure I fit my 50,000 words into 30 days. I do things differently now than I did when I was a NaNo fledgling back in 2010.
Maybe these tips will help you, too!
I wanted to be an author for years and years. I wrote drafts and partial drafts and outlines and overviews but never turned anything into a completed draft of a book.
And then I found National Novel Writing Month.
It turned out that structure is my friend! The NaNo structure helped me get it done. The first drafts of both of my novels came from National Novel Writing Month.
All the details are here: How to Win NaNoWriMo.
Whether you want to take the course or not, I would still love to know if you are a NaNoWriMo-er. Comment below if you are! What year(s) did you win?

I’m nanoing this year! I did it for my first time last year only planning on trying to get 20k done but ended up winning. I’m setting my goal low again at 25/30k but am secretly hoping I’ll win again!
EXCELLENT!!! I am secretly hoping you win again, too! I am kmcwrites@gmail.com on NaNoWriMo.org. Maybe we can find each other there when it gets underway! 🙂
I’ve added you as a buddy 🙂 I’m princess blue but I haven’t set up my new novel yet
Okay, great. I see you on my buddy list, Princess Blue. 🙂
