NaNoWriMo 2011 - Day 1

Day 1 - 29 days remaining

Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it;
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.


— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

And so it begins!

And whether pantster or plotter, now is the time to set your characters onto the twisty paths of your imagination that will carry them from desire to achieving their heart’s desire - or not. And in this quest, be sure to offer your hero the best challenges you can to test them and prove their worth of the prize that awaits them.

And so it begins!

Look beyond the words and let the story reveal itself page by page, from your hero’s ordinary world to the world of the extraordinary, of epic battles both outward and solitary within, to embrace the final resolution that resonates with thematic significance of those ideas that have guided your characters to this great final shining moment.

So it begins! Let’s go! Today’s word count is 1,667 words. Write, Nano Writer, write!

Eee. 40-ish minutes to go, for me... I already have what I hope will be a great starting sentence, so all I have to do is remember it for another 40 minutes :D

Replying to myself!

136 words written right at midnight, and I still like the starting sentence as much as I did when I came up with it, so that's promising. :D
