National Novel Writing Month 2021

This year I am writing a sequel. It’s fun to already know the characters and the world they inhabit.

National Novel Writing Month 2020 III

My NaNoWriMo novel is 91,700 words, quite a bit more than my 75,000-word goal. But there are still places that need filling out and the novel is terribly disjointed. Still, I think I have some solid content to work with.

Six of my novels have a male protagonist, and they are quite similar, all nice guys. I wanted to stretch and write a curmudgeon.

There was one speaker whose presentation was so good that I took notes, Steven Wolfson, a screenwriter and teacher, who talked about Cinematic Storytelling.

I am feeling both excitement at writing something new (my first new novel since NaNoWriMo last year), and trepidation over whether I can make the story work.
