Tomorrow (1st Novemeber) marks the start of the National Novel Writing Month. It's a competition in which you challenge yourself to write 50,000 words before the end of the month.
I took part last year and it was a lot of fun. I even got a first draft for The Cult of Me out of it. This year the novel is for Faust 2.0. A novel about an Internet chatbot that starts granting wishes, but there's always a price to be paid.
I've done my preperation, I have sketched out the characters and drawn up a chapter plan. Now I can't wait to get started :-) As the month progresses I'll post updates.

I'm Techno Hippy on the sight if you want to be writing buddies.
By day I'm a video game consultant, and I also volunteer at the German Shepherd Dog Welfare Fund - the charity that rescued the dog I adopted last year. I've also recently started compiling a website covering the history of the village I live, although I'm hoping to draw in some help for that project! Here is scratchpad when I need it, and a place for my personal projects. It's also an archive from back when this was was my writing blog.
