Third time — proving it's a trend, not a fluke.

Time to gear up for this year's NaNoWriMo. If I can pull off a win this year, it will be my third in a row, which will convince me it's a trend and not a fluke. As far as I know now, I'll be attempting a second novel using the world, and many of the characters, of my first NaNo opus (the one that takes place in a slightly offbeat and unexpected university town). I'm thinking of having a go at a murder mystery (NaNo is for trying new things, after all).

No outline this year, either. It doesn't work for me in the NaNo setting. (Truth to tell, outlining seldom works for me until I've already written about half the piece.) So I'll be working without a net. Let's see if I fly!
