im new to this channel, this was the first one in my homepage probably because of nanowrimo 2022 hihi 💚 imma subscribe to support you 💚 im still contemplating if im doing it this year but i suddenly came up with a new fall-esque themed story concept just this previous week, and have been laying out initial ideas for the story as prep but really cant do a full-on nanowrimo aside from doing it as a side thing uncompetitively because november is a busy month for me 💚 good luck to everyone joining for nanowrimo 2022 🎉🎉🎉 ill be your 49th sub hehehe 💚💓
Oh wow, thank you so much! I appreciate the support! :) I used to participate in Nano uncompetitively, and to be honest, what matters is writing. Your novel sounds like the perfect one to be working on this fall. Please feel free to share your progress along the way. I'd be very happy to follow your journey. Good luck 🍀
It's definitely a challenge with 40 hours of your week taken up with a day job, but certainly doable! Really glad I found your channel--I'm looking forward to learning more about you and your writing projects 😊
I'm excited to follow your nano journey! I love watching people's processes, so this year I'm going to document my own, too! I'm doing it alongside full time school as a PhD student, so these tips are useful!
Thank you, morganeua! I'm happy to hear these tips added some value. It is always exciting to find new people who will share their journey. I'm looking forward to seeing your process as well. What will you be working on this nano? :)
@@nikkilpzs Thank you, Nikki, for your feedback! I'm sure this time you will break the cycle! :) Although, in the end, it's not really important that we win Nano, but that we get back into the habit of daily writing. Even little progress is still progress. You should be proud of yourself.
@@inkmatcha I guess I like the challenge? Lol. Here's a few things that worked well for me. 1) Writing early in the morning before I go to my day job. Often I managed to get very close to the daily word count goal before even getting out of bed. This set me up for success each day and removed the anxious feeling that would grow at work as I thought about everything I needed to complete in the evening. 2) Getting ahead early on. There are always things that come up later in the month that prevent me from writing on a few days and getting ahead early alleviated the stress that comes from falling behind. 3) Sharing with my partner and step kids because they would check in with me each day and it was fun to tell them how far I'd gotten. 4) Having multiple POV's to write from (if possible). Sometimes I would totally blank on what was happening with one character, so I'd just switch to a different POV and storyline for a while. This was easy enough for mine because I'm writing a fantasy series with multiple main characters. Not always possible but very helpful for this kind of quick drafting! Good luck! You got this!
@@authorkyliemacdougall Thank you so much! These are useful! I'm also working on a fantasy novel, but I have this pet peeve, where I want to keep the chronological order of my chapters! 😅 I'm looking forward to hearing more about your project! :)

You can do it! I will also be doing NaNoWriMo this year, for the 5th time! I'm going to be filming the experience as well. Good luck!
5th time? That is impressive. Do you have any tips to share? Thank you for your encouragement :)
