Benedict Cumberbatch wants you to keep working towards your Camp NaNoWriMo goals!

Pep Talk From Neil Gaiman

We're now officially half way through Camp NaNoWriMo which means thousands of novels across the world (I don't know how many of you are still writing) are half written. If you don't think that this is exciting then you're wrong. This is a movement that literally gets people together to create art.

That said, reaching the half way milestone may not be so encouraging. Many get off to a good start only to find their inspiration dwindling. The beginning and ending are often clear, but creating the middle of the novel can put extraordinary pressure on the author. In this article Neil Gaiman discusses why you should keep going with an inspirational pep talk for NaNoWriMers. I hope it inspires you to keep going or to get writing again. I'm off to do a word sprint.

Camp NaNoWriMo Begins!

Camp NaNoWriMo begins today and so this month I'm going to try to write at least 25,000 words of my novel as I want to have it finished by the end of the year. I'll be posting updates of my progress on this blog as well as trying to keep regular posts going up.

I'd totally urge anyone interested in writing to give it a go and I'm sure you can still sign up by clicking here.

Wish me luck!
