Preptober 2020
Preptober 2020 is here!
For those of you who have never heard of NaNoWriMo, head on over to my Preptober 2018 post here.
This year, with the release of my novel The Techno Mage, my NaNoWriMo project is to write Captain Keenan’s Spin-off to publish next year. Of course, I usually have a plan B in case of writer’s block, but this year I have four more different projects swimming around my head to choose from!
Plan A: Project Spin-Off: Captain Keenan.
Plan B: Two words- Mandela Effect.
Plan C: Another book in my NaNo 2006 Urban Fantasy series.
Plan D: The Techno Mage 2. (?!)
Plan E: An Urban Fantasy Tarot series based on the Major Arcana.
I’m a Pantser and normally am totally okay with this (usually pretty chill about it, too), but truthfully, I’m a little nervous about it this year. I NEED this Spin-Off to work. I NEED it to make sense with The Techno Mage. I NEED it to be finished in time to publish next year. And as a Pantser, I seriously have no idea what’s going to happen in the book. Yet I have NO IDEA how to pre-outline to make it work.
Guess I’m just crossing my fingers and hoping that Keenan knows what he’s doing.
How about you? If you’re a writer, how is your Preptober going? If you’re not a writer, what are your plans for November?
