First time I've done it and I only became aware of it last November but basically you get down 50,000 words during the month of November and hey presto you're a novelist!
Whenever I've tried to write a book before it's always ended up too biographical even if it's intended to be fiction, and I abandon through fear!
So I approached NaNoWriMo from a different angle and made sure it wasn't the story of me!
I had become stumped with my main character who is a man of mystery, but this morning I had a breakthrough - actually thanks to something that came up in homegroup last night, so now I know exactly how the next bit is going to go!
It's been quite exciting actually and it's all for a bit of fun, not to become the next JK Rowling, but just to get a good chunk of work down that who knows one day might be interesting for someone else to read!
Any other bloggers out there taking part?
