NaNoWriMo

So, I tried this once before, but this year I'm serious about it. I am doing NaNoWriMo. (If you didn't know, it's a crazy challenge that involves writing a 50,000+ word novel in the 30 days of November. It stands for National Novel Writing Month) I have a plot and an outline. I am signed up. If I take out the week I'll be in the hospital, I only need to write 2174 words a day. That's still doable. Especially with an outlined story that I like! I have to start out strong though. I would like to be half-way through by the time I go into the hospital. Seems crazy, but maybe doable? 25,000 words in 10 days? I'll have more time after the surgery, but I think it'll be harder to write just because of being able to hold the laptop.

Anyway, here's my basic story concept: Taylor,a fashion student, discovers that any costume she makes with a magical sewing machine will transport her into a fantasy world. There, she is a princess and falls in love with a prince, but she can only be there while wearing the costume. They have to find a way to permanently live in the same world. Still needs a villain.

I'll try to update with an excerpt every few days. We'll see if that really happens though!

Anyway, it's just over 2 hours until start time. I wrote my outline 2 months ago, so I'm going to read over it to refresh myself, and maybe nail down a few details. Like, I dunno... the prince's name. Or finding myself a villain.

Wish me luck in my crazy venture!
