If you have not already signed up for NaNoWriMo, now is the time. NaNoWriMo.org is free fun. There are 8 days until NaNoWriMo starts. Don't wait until day one to make an account. They are an active community of writers (and writers-in-waiting).
I am starting to get anxious. I feel like I am not prepared. I don't have enough time to finish the little planning I have done or have the time to finish planning. The months have turned into weeks, weeks are shortly going to become days.
Now it the time to own it. Go public. Tell your FB world, your twitter nest, blog, Instagram or all your social media outlets what you are going to do in November. Tell everyone how crazy you are. Some people will rally behind you in this endeavor you are about to take on. You need those people!
It is great to post on twitter your word count goals and your cheerleaders will be there to say good job. You will quickly find the people you can count on to cheer you on to 50,000. I really believe that this made all the difference for me last year in actually completing the challenge.
There is something intrinsically motivating when you put yourself out there for all to see. Even when you get behind you need to put in on social media to get the positive reinforcement from your friends to catch up on your word count. It is fun to have cheerleaders but in order to have them you have to go public with the insanity that is NaNoWriMo.
