First, I'm going to start off by apologizing for not posting much. I just recently got a new job and I'm trying to get used to my schedule but I'll get the hang of it soon enough.
So, we have less than 24 hours until NaNoWriMo and there are some places who have already started. Are you ready? Do you just have a few more things to do before you're ready or do you still have so much to go? I won't lie, I fell behind in my planning. It's not my novels that I need to plan, it's my workspace that isn't prepared.
Who is staying up (or stayed up) until midnight to write?
Good luck, everyone!

There Goes Week Two
Whoever said that the second week was going to be harder than the first...they were right. Well, for a lot of the people I know. Some people are already crossing the finish line. And then there are some who aren't even close.
But now we are going onto week three. That means the first half of the month is gone and hopefully half of your novel is done, at the very least. Don't fret if you aren't, you still have the last half of the month to catch up. Just keep on writing.
How did your second week go? Do you think week three is going to be any easier?

The End of Week One
It's the end of week one! I hope everyone is doing well. The first week can be hard because it's the beginning of the novel. For some people, it's the hardest part to write. Did you struggle with your beginning or is now about the time when you're having issues writing. I know I am (but that is because of illness).
Some of my writing buddies told me that if you're struggling on a scene or a section of your novel, skip it and fill in the blanks later. It works occasionally. Write the scenes you know or the ones you want to write. It will help you get further faster.
Word Wars also help. If you don't know where to find some word wars, please
Organizing Scenes
Only 6 days and some odd hours until NaNoWriMo according to the main page of the website. So in that 6 days, we all need to be prepared.
We've talked about worlds, characters, writing tools, and other stuff in the last few blog entries. Now we are going to talk about scenes and organizing them. I have several different methods for this. My main method is by using index cards - this is a pretty common method.
Index cards are pretty cheap to come by but you can always make your own. All you need is a small square/rectangle/any shaped pieces of paper to do this. You write one scene on one of those pieces and put them in a pile. Don't number th
