Itching to Start
NaNoWri is due to start on Tuesday at the stroke of midnight. I’m ready to start right now despite the fact that I have no outline (which rarely helps me, anyway). I do have plenty of notes and the first season’s transcript I’d found yesterday. The transcript will come in handy to jog my memory, which is getting leaner as I get older.
I’ll start this story how I always do–just dive right in and worry about the changes later. That seems to work best for me. Just to warn you, the majority of next month’s posts will revolve around this project. And, depending upon how obsessed I get with this, my posting may dwindle down to once per week.

I’m itching to start as well! I have a semi-outline ready (meaning I’ll know were to go with the first chapters, then I’m all left to my own devices), but I bet that it won’t help me that much either. Diving right in seems just about right in this.

Goodness, I never even thought of the issue of posting. Oh boy…
I’m actually mortified. Don’t know why, but I wish I had another week to prepare. But that’s always the case with me. I tend to be panicky

Good luck to all of you. I’ll be monitoring your progress.

Hi, Yzabel! It’s good to see you again. Yes, diving in will force you to be more creative.
No worries, Melly.
Can you write posts in advance with Blogger? I may wind up doing that, and then scheduling a day when I can answer any comments.
Thanks again, Karen!
