NaNoWriMo 2014

[squirmelia]

I have written many novels (that no-one will ever get to read, sorry) in Novembers past for NaNoWriMo, and this year I am wondering again whether to write the usual 50,000 words of mostly nonsense or do something else.

I could write less (I already know I can reach 50,000 words in a month) or write about my life (Microserfs style maybe.. Or just do Clovember). I could decide upon some other form of using words perhaps, although the year I attempted Interactive Fiction (using Inform 7), I didn't get very far.

I enjoy NaNoWriMo, so am keen to do something still.

Clovember worked well for me last May just as a prompt to write about what I was doing, as describing the clothes gave me a place to start.

30 short stories sounds good, but I think 30 individual 1667 word stories would be harder than writing a 50,000 word novel, and really, I want a slightly easier challenge. Maybe I could write 30 stories, but ignore word count. That might work for me.

Or 10 stories, 10 LJ posts, 10 something else. Hmm.
