Kicking Off NaNoWriMo (Day 1)

It starts!

Leaderboard: 

I’m going to post with my word count and a little writing tip every day during NaNoWriMo. Come join the contest any time. If you post your daily total in the comments for the daily post, I will put up a leaderboard for up to the top ten people.

Word Count: 


I have already written 30,000 words exactly on the sequel to The Last Archangel. I’m going to write the last 50,000 words during NaNoWriMo. I’m doing a separate counter for the 50,000 words.

Writing tip of the Day: Pace Yourself. It makes no sense to write when you are burnt out.When writing for long stretches, take short breaks and go do something that uses a different part of your mind than writing. Take 10 minutes to do some dishes or take a quick walk around the block. Your mind and your story with thank you.

Saturday November 4th: Mark this date on your calendar. I’ll be announcing the winner of the Spooktacular Blog Hop and I’ll be participating in a NaNoWriMo 4-hour writing contest, with a $50 Amazon gift card on the line. You can participate too.  Details are here: http://writingonthewallblog.blogspot.com/2011/10/its-baaaack-write-thon-contest.html
