It was a dark and cliched night
Nov. 10th, 2011 10:34 pmDo I actually bother with Nanowrimo this year?
On one hand, so far I've managed about 3000 words. Ideally I should have managed about 10 times that by now. On the other hand, I can probably easily knock out another 10000 words at the weekend. Do I want to?
I do actually rather like the concept. It's far from original - a blog of a supervillain henchman. Basically Bridget Jones merged with Austin Powers henchmen. It is rather good fun to write but I don't really want to rush it. Plus I'm really a bit short on ideas. There's not a lot new to say with the ditzy blogger or spy tropes.
I've done Nano before. It's a hell of a lot more fun when we have weekly meet up with other earnest strivers. And I can produce a complete novel. And I can find time to actually write outside of Nano. Perhaps I should spend the time actually finishing one of my other stories I've played with. Especially because I quite like one of them.
Must decide whether I want to spend time doing this.
