Camp NaNoWriMo 2012 feelings
Jun. 1st, 2012 02:00 pmOkay, so. I've participated in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month, organized every November since 1999) for years. NaNoWriMo was the first annual event organized by the Office of Letters and Light, but over the years, they've begun adding new writing events to their roster. Last year, they introduced a summer version of NaNo -- Camp NaNoWriMo. I was kind of curious about it, but I didn't have any real story ideas or enough inspiration to write just then, so I didn't participate. Considering how terrible my November NaNo turned out to be because I still didn't have a good, interesting idea to write about at that time, that's probably for the best! Anyway, I didn't forget about Camp NaNo this year and was wondering after November whether I could tackle writing stories in the summer, whether I'd even have any ideas to write about.
Turns out I have a gazillion ideas just begging to be turned into long NaNo stories, so Camp NaNo, here we come! Last year I kept a sort of diary about how I felt during NaNo (found here) and because I like looking back and remembering how this insane event made me feel, I'm going to devote this post to the Camp NaNos and my thoughts during those. (Yes, I plan to participate in both the June and the August Camps.) In case you're interested, my Camper profile can be found here.
