100,000 Served and My Novel

Buff News Entry
On Sunday Nitevilla rolled past the 100,000 served mark. Hopefully most of the 100,000 who most likely are many of the repeat visitors to the website have enjoyed the house brew. Since May of 2001 I have been providing mostly useless information, random coffee babblings and a forum in which every topic under the Sun has been visited. Hopefully I can provide more of the same for the next 100,000 visitors.

If anyone has ever dreamed of writing a novel, or at least thought of starting one. Extraordinary Gentleman Chartoo posted an entry about National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo. During the month of November, just like Chartoo, I will be attempting to write a 175-page (50,000-word) novel by midnight, November 30. NaNoWriMo stresses enthusiasm and perseverance over talent and craft, and that is a good thing if I am going to be giving it a shot.

I am still throwing around ideas about what I want my novel to be about, I have a few vague ideas, but am missing any real substance that I feel I can write about for a month. I would be highly surprised if I can find the motivation to complete the goal of 50,000 words, but whether I do it or not, I can still do as the website says and throw in the occassional references to my novel during casual conversation. What more can guy ask for?

What is this?
Scott, I am going to give this NaNoWriMo novel a shot! I am sure I will fall short of the 50,000 words, but it sounds like a great learning experience. My plot is already taking shape, a guy going to a record store( what a stretch)! This is going to be a blast, please keep us all informed of your progress Scott and thanks a ton for the link!!!

That's awesome Streeter. I am still thinking about what I will write about, but whatever I decide I will definitely update everyone on the final decision and my progress.

What is this?
This starts on November 1st, so all through November I will be typing away on the keyboard during my free time. All in an effort to create a fantastic plotless novel.
