Particpating NaNoWriMo 2016

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Well I have news to share, I am attempting NaNoWriMo next month. Well I am attempting NaNoWriMo in a few days, November 1 is next week Tuesday.  I am going to write the Sixth Culling.

I am nervous and excited about attempting this, and honestly very unprepared and intimidated.

The last few days I have been watching YouTube videos about NaNoWriMo preparation, novel outlining, character development and writing tips.

Here are few suggestions and advice resources that I have found helpful:

The NaNoWriMo blog (obviously): 

The Write Practice NaNoWriMo Workshop 

YouTube:

Search NaNoWriMo and NaNoWriMo 2016 and a lot videos will pop one. This one was one of the first ones I watched.

So I am excited, I am still preparing, I am not quite there yet but I have six days to go to get there. By there, I am fully prepared and ready to tackle writing a full length novel.

Is anyone else participating? Any first timers? What about the NaNoWriMo veterans, any tips or advice to share?
