Editing Round 1

 Yesterday I began editing my NANOWRIMO project. It's been around two months since I've last read it and I needed the time away from it. I was convinced that it was the worst thing ever written, but now as I reread it, I think its alright. Still terrified to have people read it though. Hopefully soon I will be able to have beta reader and start getting some feedback on it.

Tubertown

  Tubertown is a settlement located in Epren county, Farnsworth, Drevia. The population is around 2,000 all made up of gnomes.  Home to 2,000 residents, Tubertown is known for its prolific growth of tubers, primarily russet, and lavender potatoes. They are also known for their taverns, and festavals, which many gnomes travel to to experience their autumnal festival. The leader of the settlement, Ronver Thistlestamp, his highly exclusive in who he allows into the settlement, as he is still bitter that his daughter, Welli Thistlestamp, eloped with a Goliath last summer. Ever since then, he's been known to hunt and entrap anyone taller than a gnome that he happens across in his land.

Camp Nano Goals

November 2022 I joined NANOWRIMO and thousands of writers with a common goal of writing 50,000 words for a new novel. I'm proud to say that I finished with 51,000 words.  If writing 50,000 words seems daunting, but having a community of writers all working towards a common goal sounds amazing, then Camp NANOWRIMO is for you.  Camp Nano differs from NANOWRIMO in the rules and word count. For NANO, you have to write a minimum of 50k to win and recieve an sort of prizes and it has to be for a new story. For camp, you can choose your word count and it can be for one project or as many as you want.  NANO also only happens during the month of November and Camp happens twice a year in April and July.  This is my first year going to Camp, but I just know it will be great.  Now down to my goals. Overall I plan to write 20k words, which is about 667 words a day. But to get this done as quickly as I can, I want to write a scene one day, then the next day I'll go back, rere...

TAA Update: Outline Finished

To pants or to plot, that is the question. Now that I've taken on a massive writing project that is spanning well over seven months, I'm a firm believer in plotting.  As of today (fingers crossed), my outline for my (fingers crossed) debut novel. Its looking like it will be around 75,000 words and will be a young adult novel. I didn't plan to write a YA novel, but it turns out that's what my level of writing is and there's no shame in that. Improvement is always possible.  Over the next week, I'll be meticulously re-reading the outline for any inconsistencies or things that might need adjusting. Then when Camp Nano comes around on  April 1st, I'll start writing.
