JuNoWriMo Is Coming…

Are you in? And if so, are you ready? JuNoWriMo starts Friday, June 1st and goes through the entire month of June. The goal is 50,000 words, of course. There are lots of sprints being led and other fun things that happen throughout the month. I’m always in, though I have yet to reach that 50k goal!

This year, like many before, I will be working on my fantasy/romance The Emperor’s Bride, book one of the Portal Series. This book has been a massive challenge to write, but I want to finish it this year for a January 2019 release, if not sooner. I’m on my third attempt at writing this silly thing, and this time I’m just going to pants it. I’ll be flying by the seat of my pants, literally making stuff up. I’ve tried plotting this project, but that made it feel stale and just ho-hum. This time around I plan on getting to the end if it kills me, it has been sitting on my to-do list for far too long and at this point I just want it done! I’m only 428 words into round three, so it’s sitting there patiently waiting for JuNoWriMo to start so I can bust some out. Which makes my goal 50,428 by the end of June.

I’m going to bust my hump trying to reach that goal while doing everything else I have to do at the same time. As always, this should prove interesting. It is by far not the only project on my todo list, but it’s the one that has annoyed me the longest so far! Plus I really want to get to work on the other books of the Portal Series, cause naturally, I have a thousand ideas for those too. And I’ll be running sprints each week, so there will be some built in time for me to bust my butt!

  1. You will shred this thing. And I bet you’ll see enough virils start piling up, to tempt you into sticking with it.

    I was surprised to see how many pile up, passively.

    Have they any clue what talents like ours are bringing to this site?

    I hope they are prepared for success.

  2. I should join you in this. It can’t do anything but good for Virily, right?

    THESE things like this, will pay off for us all.

    These guys are lucky to have you, ya little writing Jedi/Ninja/female Dr. Who, you.
