My Weekly Update – I’m Back

Did you miss me? I know, I was only gone a week and you barely noticed I was gone. That’s ok.  I wasn’t completely gone.  I had an interview posted and a guest post on a couple of great sites.  Check them out and let me know what you think.

Blogging from A to Z Challenge: Sydney Aaliyah & Australia Interview – thanks Alex and the rest of the A to Z Crew
Is My Blog a Success? Guest post at My First Book – thanks so much Misha
 

NaNoWriMo Thank You I was thinking about doing a NaNo debriefing, but everyone is doing that. I am just going to send out a few thank you’s and leave it at that.

Felicia Scotzig, Amanda Fanger, Vikki, AM Schultz, Sevastian Winters, Donna McNicols, Shah Wharton, Audrey Austin, Jami Gold, Mark Ethridge, Anna Howard, Rebecca H. Campbell, Andrew F. Butters, Jennifer Gracen, Angela Goff, Sarah Thayer, Jeff Tsuruoka, Tia Siverthorne Bach, Meg McNulty, Miranda Gammella, Sarah Nicholson, Ruth Long, Cara Michaels, Bethany Miller, Candy Sparks, Molly Ahola, Alberta Ross, Artemis Leaena, Shan Jeniah Burton, David Swensen, all my tweeple, all my FB friends, all my blog followers, my WanaTribe and my Tribe Mates.

I could do this without you, but it wouldn’t be near as much fun.

And, if I forgot anyone, if you have ever writing anything, anywhere, anytime, in any form what so ever, thank you, too.

Congrats to all the NaNoWriMo Winners!

My Weekly Update – The Secret to Winning NaNoWriMo

Yes, ladies and gentleman. This is the one and only Nanowrimo prep post I am going to pen for you this year.  Frankly, the only one you will need.  I have the secret to winning Nanowrimo.  Now, I haven’t actually participated in Nanowrimo.  But, I have won Junowrimo and Campnano in 2012.  So, that make me an expert on these month long writing challenges in 2012.

But first, the advice. Here it goes. All the advice you’re every going to need.  And, I do mean all.

There are many more post, sites and books dedicated to helping you prepare for Nanowrimo.  Take a few hours, read through some, skim through others.

But, you came here for the secret, right?

Come November 1st, forget it all.  Just sit down and write. And write and write and write. 

If you want to follow my progress during Nanowrimo, come back and read My NaNoWriMo Daily Updates.

Good luck fellow NaNoWriMo writers!
