I plan to do Nano again this year. I always have good intentions & rarely finish 50K but I get a lot of stuff on the page!

November is not always the best for me either. I know last year, Becca did her own Nano in January, when it fit her timeline a bit better, so maybe tuck that idea in your back pocket! 🙂

I never seem to time it right - somehow I'm always in revisions when November rolls over me. Maybe next year. 🙂

Hi Lee,

I am glad it helps--good luck with NANO--I think starting early is a great idea to take some of the pressure off and get into the groove.

I haven't seen the internal character arc broken down in that formula before, very useful. Thanks.

Doesn't it feel amazing to know you completed a novel of that length? It sort of opens up a world when a person completes a novel...you've done something you didn't know you could do, and that means you can do it again. So many stories to tell. 🙂

Taking a month to learn better craft and applying it to revision is a great idea. Becca and I took a year where we read about a dozen craft books, and then compared notes and discussed. Boy did this ever help us elevate our craft. Do check out Helping Writers become Authors blog, as it is a treasure trove of advice. Good luck!
