Nanowrimo & Updates

Long time no update!  The writing conference basically blew my brain.  First of all, I’d never been around so many people that loved writing so much.  When I talked to them, they really understood where I was coming from: my fears, my dreams, my hopes, my loves.  Second of all, there was so many interesting ideas that I was exposed to in the industry of writing.  It was interesting listening to all the speakers.  Third, I learned SO much.  I did this sequence of classes called NovelCram.  It was intense but so worth it.  I had never known how to approach writing a novel.  Trinity was written purely accidentally.  So, this gave me a strong foundation to base my future writing on. 

Inspired by the conference, I have embarked on Nanowrimo for the 6th year running.  This year, I am adamant on finally writing the 50,000 words.  I am using this chance to finish a whole new novel from beginning to end in just one month.  Of course, it’s going to be a seriously rough draft, but I need the motivation to get cracking on it. 

So, that’s the big news: a new novel is coming! 

There’s a big future ahead for Trinity also.  It’s not quite traditional but I think it fits the novel very well.  I’ll explain the reasoning behind my decision for it in a future post.  So, stay tuned!
