I’m going to be pushing myself and trying to do NaNoWriMo. It’s a writing challenge to write a novel of 50 000 words in November. I don’t expect to actually finish with a publishable novel but just writing with improve my style and skills.
I created a set of polls, in order to get started I want your help deciding what to write. Not any details just Genre and tone for now. I’ll make more polls on Wednesday for some extra clarifications and some more on Friday for Character names and attitudes. Then on Saturday I’ll start writing. I’ll post the results here either daily or weekly with a word count.
Wish me luck and please comment and vote.
Thank you

Stretch yourself further! If you’re used to fanatasy & humour, try post-apocalypse w/ drama and bleekness.

That’s the thing I’ve written a little of everything. No matter what I write I’ll be out of my element.

Jsut write what comes to you on november 1st and continue along that vein. Really, if it ends up being a humorous look at post-apocalyptic high magitek in a crapsack world, it’s still gonna be interesting. I have no idea what I’ll be doing for NaNoWriMo, but I’m sure it’ll be something.

I say you write some pop opera dramatic post-apocalyptic literary/horror mish-mash with a chick lit twist.

Hey Eric, I think it’s wonderful that you want and are going to write a novel. However, my imput on the Genre and tone for your novel could/would not be of very big insight, as my creativity is non-existant. I admire your love for English-I wish I felt the same…I want to shoot myself in the foot everytime I have to go to English class…enough of that now…GoodLuck on writting your Novel, I’m sure you will end up with a magnificent work of art!
with love,
your long lost cousin xo

Cool, another WriMo! I’ve added you to my blogroll so I can track your progress. This will be my first year as a WriMo too.

Eric, write what you know best. Then you’ll never be short of ideas. And, since you’re cute and silly and enjoy fantasy so much… go with it!

Thank you all for your opinions. I haven’t put anything on the list that I don’t want to write and I will most likely have a little of everything in it. I’m just using this to get a feel for what I want and what to do.

Eric, this is such a cool idea! I would be interested in playing with this as well! Any ideas/help you could bring would be appreciated!
I can’t wait to read what you write! Don’t forget to add some smut in too! You know us Twilight Chicks love that stuff!

Write about what you know; or about what you would like to know more about and then research it so you are back to writing about what you know.
