Sweet, sweet November. Hello, everyone. This is my first IWSG post on my new blog domain! If you haven't visited me before, I decided a couple of weeks ago to change my focus entirely on my blog after a summer hiatus where I had only decided to reorganize. It wasn't sitting well with me, so I'm going to do what I can to get my mind focused on writing again by getting my blog focused on it as well. Let's hope this works.

Anyone doing NaNoWriMo? How are you doing? On Oct. 25th (the day I actually composed this post), the jury was still out on whether or not I wanted to try this year or not. I have some stories that need to be written, so who's to say? Those of you who are in it to win it this year, good luck, and happy writing!

Anyone NOT doing NaNoWriMo? What are your plans this month? Are you currently working on something? Do your best, and don't worry if you're not working on something. If you're a writer, something will hit you eventually, guaranteed!

Have a great month, everyone!

I'm not doing NaNo. I tried it once and quit after 15000 words. Wish I would try again.

I'm in for the third year in a row! I love that it gives me a good start on a new novel every single year. It's good to force myself to make my fiction a priority.

I'm working on my second draft this month (and all others until completion), so I'm doing NaNo2ndDrafto ;)

I loved how you brought us over from your old blog - that was cool! And, I love that you decided to reorganize. I've been thinking of such things . . . but I think I won't put any of it into motion until next year.

And, I'm nose-deep in the turbulent waters of revision and proofreading Destiny - I had planned for that part to be over by now, but . . . I'm still in it. So, I'm not Nanoing, but I wish well those that are!
Happy Writing!

I'm not doing NaNo. Every year I think I'm going to do it and never do. It scares me. Maybe I will finally pull up my big girl pants for 2016 and take the plunge! I'm glad I found you through IWSG!

I'll sign up for NaNo this weekend. Too nusy at the moment. If I write 25,000 words I'll be happy. Good luck to everyone else!

Not doing NaNo, since I write comics instead of novels now, LOL. I attempted it years ago, though, and failed miserably. I'm always amazed by all the people who can churn out countless words for this challenge!

I love the portal image you have on your old blog to get us over here. Good luck getting back into your writing groove, and with the new blog.

Is that an ironic wish I would, or a serious one? lol I almost always say it ironically.

Debra Renée Byrd said...

Awesome!

Debra Renée Byrd said...

Teehee. I like that.

Debra Renée Byrd said...

Good luck! I can't wait to see what you do. :)

Revising is almost never-ending it seems. There's a light somewhere at the end. lol

Debra Renée Byrd said...

Very nice to meet you! It never hurts to try one good time, even if you fail miserably like I did. haha

Debra Renée Byrd said...

Good luck!

Debra Renée Byrd said...

LOL I can imagine that would be hard! They should do a NaComWriMo. :D

Thank you! :D
