Who's planning for NaNo 2010?

[twistingthetale]

Hi folks, just a quick post to find out if any of you have started to make plans for NaNo this year? As yet I haven't made a start on 'serious' planning, but I'll be writing about werewolves during the Victorian era. This will be my third NaNo, and it will be set in the same location as my two previous novels even though they don't form a trilogy (although there is more than just the location that links them).

I'm also taking part in the Two Year Novel course (2YN) at the Forward Motion site, which is a lot of fun and very useful. Hopefully I'll be able to use what I've learned so far with my NaNo planning :) With the course work and other projects that I'm working on, editing last year's NaNo - and 2008's - has yet to begin, but after a thorough read-through once it was printed I have an idea of which areas are in obvious need of attention.

This community was a great source of encouragement last year, so if any of you are taking the plunge again this year I look forward to working with you again :)

How about taking parts of last year's and writing a novel that's linked but not exactly a sequal? Perhaps you have a side character or plot that you were interested in exploring in more detail, but couldn't include everything last year.

That's a cool idea. Actually, there are at least two stories that I could write as prequels, which may even help me with the rewrite as it'll fill in some back-story in my head.

Maybe one of those is the way to go then :) Thanks for the icon comment!
