 Hey guys it's Chilly and today I'm going to be talking about nano-rymo and am writing because I have made the decision that I'm going to be doing nano-rymo this year even though I'm like stress leveled through the roof and I'm in a writing slump but I like logged onto my nano-rymo account and I saw that I'd done it for the last three years in a row and I've like successfully completed them all and I was like I can't let that marathon go to waste you know I'm on a roll I gotta keep writing I gotta keep doing it and it was also when I logged on that I saw that the last novel that I had written like last year's one was also the first draft of the story that I'm still currently working on and I have read it back like a small snippet of it and it's terrible it was a horrible draft of that story and it made me feel really good because I could see like how much work I had done on this book and where it was at now so I've kind of completed my second draft of that but I'm currently working on my third but when I say currently working I mean I spent three hours yesterday writing like seven sentences on it because I'm super struggling to like get into my character's heads at the moment but I think what I'm going to do is that I'm going to write this third draft as part of nano-rymo but I'm not entirely sure whether to do that work on like what would be the second book in the series or whether to just write a completely different story so although I am going to be doing nano-rymo I'm not actually entirely sure what story I'm going to be doing I mean the first time I ever did nano-rymo back in like 2013 I started it three days late I wrote 10,000 words in like two days I deleted 10,000 words because it was rubbish and restarted the story and still finished on time with no preparation beforehand so I'm pretty confident that I can maybe get something done I'm not confident at all I don't know why I just said I was I really have no idea what I'm doing anyway I will leave a link below to my nano-rymo account all you guys can add me it's just simply my name just tealybooth I'm so happy to like talk to people about this and get into like a complete writing mindframe because I think that's like the best way to go about it is to have like writing buddies and just talk to each other and encourage each other and yeah so if you guys want to do that I'm totally down for it so yeah I'll leave a link below you guys should become my buddies and I'll become your buddies and we can all just like get excited and write and maybe even cry at the later on stage just because it's so stressed out and the stories are probably just not gonna be right or something's going to go wrong who knows either way I am super confident that we are all going to go home and like finish this at the end of November and become winners for another year but those of you who don't know what nano-rymo is it is basically national novel writing month so you have to write 50,000 words in 30 days and it's kind of like really fun and stressful but in a way it really helps with your writing because it gives this deadline to want to finish it it is a charity organization so it is encouraged that you guys donate to it you don't actually have to to participate but you know it's still like a nice thing to do if you guys have the money for it but I know that not everyone does that's just a quick update I'm probably going to be doing a vlog of the month I'm not entirely sure I don't do vlogs very often although I have had a few people ask me to do vlogs so yeah let's see how that goes hopefully you guys are all starting to get prepared for it and I shall see you guys all writing and happily completing nano-rymo rhymo I keep changing the way that I pronounce that hopefully you guys have a lovely bookish weekend and until then I hope things go great for you hey guys it's Tilly and I'm about to throw so many diverse book recommendations at you guys you won't even know what's coming
