Camp Nanowimo
After recently discovering that the vast majority of my non-school related posts were about nanowrimo, I was a bit hesitant to write another one. I like writing, but I will say that it's not one of my main interests. I'm way more into soccer/athletics in general, art, and astronomy. So the idea that I have a ton of writing related blog posts is pretty strange. Ah well. I also think its strange to write about writing. It just doesn't seem like it's always the write thing to do. Puns...
But anyways. Since my Nanowrimo was a success, I'm partaking in Camp Nanowrimo during April. And no, it's not, as I suspected when I first heard about it last year, an actual summer camp. It's essentially the regular NaNoWriMo, but you get to choose what your goal is and what not. I'm going for the regular 50k. For Camp Nanowrimo, you can choose your format too, so it doesn't have to be a novel. It can be anything, like a movie script. I'm sticking with a novel, 'cause it's easier.
My novel for this April will be set in the same world as my November novel, which I'm still editing. I have the basic premise down, but figuring out certain details, like how far in the future the novel is set, characters, even major yet simple details like my main character's name have proved difficult. November's novel I knew the name right away. Well not right away, but essentially early on in writing. Now that I know I can write 50k in a month, I'm really determined to do it again. I was planning on saving this novel idea for November, but I've just been itching to write it. Waiting just a few weeks till April is hard enough.
So yeah. Camp NaNoWriMo, awesomeness.
