Ah, autumn. Crisp mornings. Brisk winds. Back to school weather, new pencil cases, pumpkin-flavoured everything, and writers all over the world preparing to take part in NaNoWriMo<\/a>. But what exactly is NaNoWriMo? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

National Novel Writing Month is an annual challenge in which writers all around the world attempt to write an entire novel (or more specifically, 50,000 words of a first draft) in the 30 days of November. Sounds a bit bonkers \u2013 right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I beg to disagree. It\u2019s a perfectly reasonable thing to do, and if you\u2019re reading this then I am hoping that it\u2019s something that you\u2019re considering, and if you are, then let me share five good reasons why you should go for it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

5 Good Reasons To Join NaNoWriMo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. November Is A Great Month To Write<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The weather\u2019s dire, so why not put every moment of spare time to use and write? And if not now \u2013 when? Even better, get a head start this year by starting in October instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. You Have Nothing To Lose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s only thirty days, and at the end of it you will potentially have 50,000 words that you didn\u2019t have before. The key to it is letting go of the expectation of writing something GOOD. Nobody can write a perfect novel in a month. Whatever you end up with will need serious editing, if you feel like it. You\u2019re not writing a masterpiece in a month, you\u2019re just going to WRITE. And that is tremendously liberating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. It’s Great Fun!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Writing is by nature a solitary business, but this is an annual opportunity to be cheered along whilst you do it, to engage in competitive sprinting (writing for a given amount of time without stopping) if that\u2019s your thing, or at least to be encouraged by a host of pep talks and discussions with fellow writers locally and around the world. And a side note: if you\u2019re having fun while you\u2019re writing, it will probably be better than anything you\u2019ve written that\u2019s felt like a chore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. It’s A Magic Cure For Writer’s Block<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

No, really \u2013 it is. There is nothing like the pressure of a deadline to get you writing. If you get stuck, you can skip to the next scene, or change your story completely, or even throw in the Travelling Shovel of Death (a traditional NaNoWriMo technique). There are many suggestions on the NaNoWriMo forums to help you if you get stuck, and because there is no pressure for your writing to be good, then there is nothing stopping you bouncing off that metaphorical wall and back into the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. You Never Know Where This Might Lead<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are many published novels that started life in November – have a look here<\/a> if you don\u2019t believe me. Seven out of my eight published novels were NaNoWriMo novels. Admittedly each one took a year or more to edit, but we\u2019re not talking about editing now, we\u2019re talking about writing. What I\u2019m saying is: I\u2019m a normal person, whatever that is, and if I can do it, you can do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Do I Plan For NaNoWriMo?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s plenty you can be doing now to prepare to write your novel. If you\u2019ve already got a story idea, there are some brilliant, encouraging and comprehensive guides to planning your novel right here on the Jericho Writers website \u2013 see How To Plan A Novel<\/a> and this guide<\/a> on how to flesh out your ideas quickly with The Snowflake Method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Planning is just part of it, however. You\u2019re writing a novel, you\u2019ll need to take yourself seriously. If you tell all your friends and family<\/strong> that you\u2019re going to do NaNoWrimo, then you are making yourself accountable, because you can bet they\u2019ll all be asking you how the novel\u2019s going during November and beyond \u2013 and as a bonus, it\u2019s a great excuse to get you out of things you don\u2019t want to do. Social events can wait till December \u2013 you\u2019re writing a novel. The laundry can wait for a bit \u2013 you\u2019ve got writing to do. Shopping? Let someone else take their turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(On a practical level, if you celebrate Christmas, it\u2019s a good idea to do some festive shopping and Christmas card writing now \u2013 December is going to come around mighty quickly if you\u2019ve spent the whole of November writing.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s also worth pointing out (in case you\u2019re reading this on Halloween) that you don\u2019t need to plan at all<\/strong>. You can dive straight in on day one, or even several days in, if you missed the start. You can write an entire novel without planning \u2013 it\u2019s called Pantsing, or writing by the seat of your pants. It will mean that you\u2019ll probably have more editing to do later, but it\u2019s no less valid a technique. In fact \u2013 hands up \u2013 I am a Pantser and proud. I never plan. I get bored if I know what\u2019s going to happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Many Words Am I Going To Have To Write?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To reach your goal by the end of the month, you\u2019ll need to write 1,667 words a day. That sounds like a lot \u2013 and it IS a challenge, let\u2019s be honest: if it was easy, everyone would be doing it, wouldn\u2019t they?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But if you manage to turn off your inner editor, put aside the urge to fix problems as you go along, and just WRITE \u2013 you\u2019ll be surprised how quickly your total goes up. Remember, NaNoWriMo is all about quantity, not quality \u2013 and while that might sound counter-productive, actually in the process of writing freely you\u2019ll find that some of what you\u2019ve written is really pretty good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a 15-year veteran of NaNoWriMo, here are my top tips for getting it done:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Try And Get Ahead Of The Game<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Inevitably, there will be some days in the month when real life will intervene, and you won\u2019t be able to write. If you\u2019re ahead in terms of word count, it won\u2019t feel quite such a slog to get back to the story. Aim for 2,000 words or more a day in the first week, if you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Track Your Progress And Celebrate Milestones<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The NaNoWriMo website has a helpful graph to show your progress and it\u2019s very motivating to stay on or ahead of that target line. Every 10,000 words is a victory!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Sprints Are Great<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

You might not be accustomed to writing at speed, but in fact, the only writer you are competing against is yourself. If you can write 300 words in 20 minutes, set a timer and try to do 320 words next time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Can I Stay Motivated?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Writing a novel in a month is something of a rollercoaster. There will be days when your story just flies and it\u2019s hard to write fast enough, and then there are days when every word is painful. There is an acknowledged \u2018Wall\u2019 that most participants hit, often around Week Three \u2013 so if you\u2019re struggling, you\u2019re definitely not alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is where your writing buddies can help. Others in the Jericho Writers community<\/a> will also be taking part \u2013 find a friend for a bit of mutual accountability, and maybe do some sprints together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join your local NaNoWriMo region, too. There are no in-person events taking place this year, but every region will have its own community and online writing events throughout the month to help you with your wordcount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re not feeling sociable, there are plenty of other resources to keep you going \u2013 personally, I can recommend Focusmate<\/a> and Brain FM<\/a> to help maintain concentration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tell yourself that this is only a month, and the achievement at the end will feel amazing. Give yourself rewards for sticking with it, and try to write every day \u2013 or don\u2019t go more than a day without writing at least something, even if it\u2019s a sentence. You\u2019ll probably write more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re stuck, the NaNoWriMo forums provide solutions to most problems. You can ask others to unravel your plot dilemmas (often the act of describing the issue to someone else will help your brain to find the solution). You\u2019ll also find extensive lists of user-provided \u2018adoptables\u2019 \u2013 for example, \u2018adopt a plot twist\u2019, or \u2018adopt a character\u2019 \u2013 ideas for you to throw into your story when you get stuck. They might not work, but they will keep you writing while your brain works out how to pick up your story again. Beware of procrastination<\/a>, and getting in your own way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this point I think it\u2019s important to say it again: YOU CAN DO IT.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

How Much Should I Edit My Writing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not at all. Just \u2013 don\u2019t. It\u2019ll interrupt your flow, cause you to doubt yourself, and takes valuable time away from driving that word count forward. November is not the time for editing \u2013 your inner editor should be locked in a virtual cupboard for the duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve made that sound very absolute, but it\u2019s not quite that brutal. If you make a spelling mistake as you go along, by all means fix it, especially if it makes you twitchy. But what you shouldn\u2019t do is delete anything. If what you\u2019ve just written doesn\u2019t make sense, type \u2018FIX THIS\u2019 or some other searchable place marker, and write the paragraph or chapter again. If your plot takes an unexpected detour that you know is horrendously waffly, leave it be. If your characters end up having a long conversation about pandemics, let them carry on and maybe encourage them to discuss Brexit while they\u2019re at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You know you\u2019re making a mess. You know you\u2019ll read this all later and wail \u2018what was I thinking?\u2019 but that doesn\u2019t matter during November. Quantity, not quality!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s Next?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether you make 50,000 (or more!), or any amount at all, celebrate your achievement, collect your winner\u2019s goodies from the NaNoWriMo website, and have a well-deserved rest. It\u2019s a good idea to let that novel sit undisturbed for a while, certainly at least a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the dark days of the new year you can revisit it, read through (and marvel at the bits you can\u2019t even remember writing) and decide whether your story has potential. Mostly, despite the mess, it will have some really rather brilliant bits, and then the work of untangling, restructuring, and developing<\/a> can begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have I convinced you to have a go? I hope so. It\u2019s a complete blast. In the words of Chris Baty, the founder of NaNoWriMo, the world is waiting for your novel. This is your chance!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
