NaNo Tips #1

askmoonyloonylupin:

  • Word sprints and Word Wars with your regional buddies or buddies in general will save you. 
  • Get as many words under your belt as you can in the first week. You’ll be thankful when things get cranky later on. 
  • Never edit or delete. I MEAN IT. Editing will be for December - January - February. 
  • Write something bad. Write something terrible. Keep it. Put brackets to remind yourself that it’s unfinished business if you want. DO. NOT. DELETE. IT. 
  • You want to rewrite a scene? Good. Do it under the first one. 
  • DO. NOT. DELETE. 
  • Accept the fact that you won’t have a Novel by the end of NaNo but 50 000 words on a page that you’ll need to go over and work on. 
  • On the days you don’t want to write: write anyway. Write 100 words. Or write 50. It doesn’t matter: write them.

Here’s my take on NaNo day 1, the rest will come later on, I have a word war to attend!
