Oct. 18th, 2024 10:31 pmHmm, it's only about 11 days until Arbitrary Novel November. I need to decide what to do. Silly, but Tempting: I have written 50k words in a month. I have written a fanfic novella in a month. I have not written an original novel in a month. But this November, I could try. Let's up the challenge, for no good reason! For added silliness, I could also do the "I'm drawing a tarot spread for the plot, and the characters are made by putting my music on to shuffle to create bizarre character playlists."
Not Silly, Not That Tempting: I can finish my current novel project-- the f/f arranged marriage between a cavalry general and an embroidery mage-- and get it to a self publishable stage. Pros: I have never finished an original novel before. Cons: I don't know how to turn editing it into Numbers, and my previous NaNo success required Awakening the Numbers Gremlin. Also, I have no idea if it will take more or less than a month to edit?
Fan Fic Free Space I have written 50k of fan fiction before. And I have a lot of WIPs hanging over my head. The flaws with this plan are a) I already know I can do it, and maybe it would be nice to challenge myself more and b) doing NaNo has never decreased my number of WIPs and it may be foolishness to believe it will work this time.
