NaNoWriMo: 5 Tips On How To Get Ready
Here are my suggestions on how to prepare for NaNoWriMo:
The writer. (via I)
Practicing the art of "Butt in Chair." @ The Beginning Writer
One of my favorite books on writing is Page After Page, by Heather Sellers. It’s a great book for beginners because it focuses on finding the courage and commitment to start writing and keep writing.
When asked what her single best piece of advice was for the beginning writer, Miss Sellers said, “Butt in chair.”
I sometimes suggest to inexperienced writers that they try to summarize their novels in progress in a sentence or two. It’s a useful though limited way of finding out whether a book has a coherent theme, a theme that’s likely to attract readers.
