However, they are also doing summer camp NaNo, in June and August. I did a summer NaNo last year, and "won" that time, too. The nice thing about NaNo is that its more of a focus: it helps you concentrate on your work and not to let yourself get distracted by shiny things.
Also, you don't have to write a complete, fully edited, 50,000-word manuscript that's a piece of art and ready to submit now. You can use it for whatever you need it for. The last three times I've used it to fully draft novels that I was procrastinating on, and just needed to get written. This time, I have a novel I've completed, but the revisions are killing me. I'm trying to avoid them, and that's always a bad thing. So, I'm using NaNo to completely revise my manuscript.
How about you? Are you going to participate? If so, welcome to Camp NaNoWriMo!
And you can still enter for a chance to win HORSE CHARMER, a novel by author Angelia Almos, whose new book UNICORN KEEP was released April 30, 2012. You've got mere hours left, so hurry down!
God bless
Cat
Can't wait for Camp!
ReplyDeleteMe neither, Katie!
Delete(Curiosity question: how do you pronounce "neither"? Do you say, or think, NEEther, or NYEther? I say NYEther.)
Congrats on the other wins. Good luck on this one.
ReplyDeleteI did the PiBoIdMo, that's more my speed.
PiBoIdMo is awesome, too. I'd like to try that once, too.
DeleteSounds good. I do need to get my MG novel draft down by June!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll see you there, then. ;-)
DeleteI'm never at the point of writing a new WIP when these things come around. I just finished a WIP and now I'm revising two--one of which you critiqued for me. :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck, Cat!
I'm not really writing, either. Just revising. So... you can come too, if you want! :)
