It's coming up on that time of year again. (although I'm sure it's that time of year everyday for a lot of writers) I like Nanowrimo because it's really the one time of year I seem to be able to give myself permission to turn off my inner editor and write with abandon. Sometimes the final product turns out good (like I Am Evan which was my 2013 Nanowrimo project) and sometimes it doesn't (those shall remain nameless and buried away somewhere in the long-abandoned basement of my computer.)
This year I'm going to do something I've never done before - I'm going to write an outline before I start. The last time I checked, it was allowed as long as you don't actually start writing the story. I'm doing this in hopes that it will turn out to be more than just a month-long writing exercise.
If you want to friend me on Nanowrimo, my name is marlabowie. (Also, I'm still deactivated on Facebook, so if you get a friend request from me, it's bogus. I do check in to make sure my account is staying secure.)
