NaNoWriMo...Uh Oh...

Eep.
Looking at my little diary/work rota thingy here, it has just dawned on me that NaNo begins in a little over a week. As in, there are only 7 and a half days to go. Like, 174 and a half hours.
Oh dear. I don't even have something that resembles a plot outline yet.

For those of you that have absolutely no clue what I am twittering on about, NaNoWriMo is a yearly competition that starts on the 1st November and ends at midnight on the 30th November. If you're brave (or silly?) enough to enter, you have 30 days to write 50,000 words. It can be daunting stuff! The name of the game is to encourage all of those people who have ever had the put-off-til-another-time pipe dream of writing a novel, to just crack on and give it a whirl. Its fun, its scary, its stressful and its exhilarating...and I cannot wait!

This will be my fourth year, and I honestly cannot recommend it enough. You can check it out here.

So, now that I have counted how many hours there are (or aren't) left to go, I reeeeally need to get down to organising the plot outline...yes indeedy, I am a control freak, and I cannot go to war without my armour!

Now then...where did I put my brain this morning...
