It's like Secret Window, with caffeine-induced writing binges

National Novel Writing Month (or NaNoWriMo), is an international event intended to inspire creativity and productivity by challenging writers to write 50,000 words during the month of November. More information can be found at nanowrimo.org.

I've decided to take part in NaNoWriMo again. I didn't do it last year, but I won in 2003.

However, because I don't have a new project to start, this year I shall be invoking the Zokutou clause. Find out more here. I shall attempt to finish Home, and if I do so in less than 50,000 words then I'll make a start on Dearest . . .

Of course, the added challenge is that two years ago, I didn't do anything, so writing 50k was easy. Since then, I've taken up taekwondo, started playing rugby again, run twice a week, not to mention various other non-work distractions. This may well test my time-management skills to the limit . . .
