I am so ready for the NaNoWriMo to start! I have characters and an opening scene. Otherwise I am just writing by the seat of my pants, like my title says. I want to write 50,000 words with days to spare. This is going to be a challenge, I think. I don't have any outline. I don't even have a rough idea for an ending. Don't even know what is going to happen in the following chapters. Even without a lot, I feel really good about completing this. The story is interesting enough to keep my attention throughout the month. The one thing that is great about not having an outline is that I'm going to be surprised. Maybe that isn't the best thing to do for writing, but during NaNoWriMo, surprise is a treasure.

I've compiled a list of ten things that I want to accomplish over the next month.

Hopes for 2009:

1.More than 50,000!
2.Writing with days to spare. Wanna have smooth sailing
3.Have a completed novel by the end of NaNoWriMo
4.Meet new people and make more friends
5.More confident about my writing/finishing tasks
6.Have a deeper understanding of the world/greater knowledge of things (places)
7.Mar journals, tea, and music!
8.The energy to keep writing
9.Will edit and try to publish at a later date—in December?
10.Be more involved with community


Though I am a bit tired now and could go to sleep, I'm staying up so I can start on my NaNo. I want to get the 1667 words before I go to sleep.
