NaNoWriMo has started! If you’re just hearing about this for the first time, NNWM is basically a personal challenge. You’re challenging yourself to write 50,000 words through the month of November. It gives you that extra oomph to start a novel.
This year’s NNWM, I have decided to write a story titled “The Coming of the Second Phoenix”. It’s an idea that’s been pestering me for the past two years. Right now I have Word open… It’s been open for a few hours now… Not a single word typed in yet. It’s sort of odd that this idea has been pestering me for so long and I have no clue how to begin it.
Last year was easy. It was about a creator that came to his fantasy world. I knew where to start the story. This time, I don’t. I don’t have a clue. It’s hard to decide where to pick up the story but I’ll meet my 1,667 daily word goal today. I’m sure of it. I’ll force myself to start somewhere.
Just… I’m lettering it simmer for the moment. Yeah, that’s it. Simmer.
