With less than a week to go, I have most of my prep done for NaNoWriMo. Here's what's completed:
- Plots determined
- Twists (if characters let it happen that way)
- Characters
- Character relationships (though they may change my mind)
- Places described and arranged
- Title and title to the series (at least I think)
- Started writing 2000 word daily
- Aeon timeline set up
- Scrivener set up
- Calendar set and marked for all the writathons
- Word count meters setup
SO, here is what has been done in my house:
- Scrubbed all floors on hands and knees
- Cleaned washer
- Removed all lint from dryer vent
- Washed every dish in the house with soapy bleach water
- Wiped out cupboards
- Scrubbed & disinfected bathroom
- Vacuumed all carpet twice
- Washed rugs, curtains and bedding (I do bedding every other week though)
- Wiped all light switches and door knobs with Clorox wipes
- Dusted everything (picture frames included)
- Cleaned frig and freezer (inside & out)
- Cleaned microwave and oven
- Cleaned inside windows
- Re-arranged the living room for winter
There! See I have been very busy. Now on the 3rd I'll do my monthly grocery shopping and then prepare freezer meals for the month. Oh! And make NaNo snacks. @GetWordies has tons of meals, freezer meals and snackies on their blog and on Pinterest. With 25 meals prepped and ready my kids can just toss them in the microwave, crockpot, or slap together a salad or sandmich. I think freezer meals were invented for NaNoWriMo.
Kids will get their rooms done in the next few days so the whole house will be done before the 1st!
As for writing, I started what was to be an adult novella. It seems to be turning into a YA that will link with the series I'm working on. Don't know how that happened but it did. That one will be call 'Sara' I think. Maybe "Sara's Coming of Age". I guess I'll figure it out later.
