I'm not participating, but I have recently been making plans for what I hope will eventually be my first novel. It may be a while before I actually start writing; for now, I'm fleshing out the background, characters, and basic plot. I have a large notebook that's slowly filling up with cross-linked information. It's a lot of fun and very interesting - realizing that logically, if you've established this about your setting, it only makes sense for that to follow, seeing how your plans shift as you get a better grip on your characters, etc.  I don't know if I'll be able to pull it off, but there's no rush.
Unlike those of you participating in the Month. Get writing, you  |
And you make me look silly with my first novel locked up in here-
taps head for a few seconds then stops, realizing that no one can bloody well see me- and with nothing written anywhere for it.
Ah one day (by which I mean never of course).
I'll not be entering this contest as my approach to deadlines would put the late Douglas Adams to shame, as anyone who knows me can attest.
