​It's scary out there--Don't write alone. 👻

​Okay but seriously, National Novel Writing Month is a huge undertaking and it's scary to do it alone! So let's do it together. We'll come together for three planning sessions so we're ready to hit the ground running in November.

​Plan for each session:

• ​5 minutes of introductions and goal-setting

• ​45 minutes of head-down working

• ​10 minute break

• ​50 minutes of head-down working

• ​10 minutes of sharing, questions, close out

​I've completed the NaNo challenge to write 50,000 words in a month three times, but I'm by no means an expert! I won't be "teaching" anyone anything here. I just want to create space for other writers who are trying to juggle their writing goals and their daily lives.

​That said, I have ideas of what people could work on. Suggested agenda for the sessions:

• ​Session One: Deciding on your story, short summary, and main character(s).

• ​Session Two: Character motivations and arcs, setting research

• ​Session Three: Plotting and planning your November writing schedule

​These are just ideas for what you can work on each session! We'll be working silently for more of it, so you can work on whatever you want to.

​Open to all writers participating in National Novel Writing Month this November!
