How very apt for November #NaNoWriMo #NaNo2Point0

Look at my young novelists go! They get a box colored in for each 10% of their word goal they complete. I use a different color for each club meeting so we can see our progress over time!

My friends at #NaNo2Point0 let me run the @nano2wordsprints.bsky.social account this morning.

So, of course every Writing Sprint comes with a fun fact about the Royals.

This week’s theme is Denmark Royals.

And for all of you early morning writers, you are in luck! @gertrudedaly.bsky.social will be here Saturday from 5-7 AM Pacific time for a royal-themed Writing Sprints.

1. Scene-by-Scene

This is the traditional method of #Outlining. Typically, it’s 1-3 sentences detailing how each scene (from beginning to end) will advance the story. No dialogue or descriptors (unless plot-critical).

#Writersky #NaNoWriMo #NaNo2point0

With the new #NaNoWriMo starting November 1st, I’m going to spend some time this week detailing different methods of outlining that might help you prepare for it. #Writersky #Outlining #NaNo2point0 @nano2point0.bsky.social

I adore the badges the @nano2point0.bsky.social team came up with. We have so many talented artists in the #NaNo2point0 team.

The Writer Badges came out today.
I think these 4 describe me.

Background of light blue, yellow and peach swirls on graph paper. NaNoWriMo is in less than a month... WHAT'S YOUR PREP STYLE? Planner (drawing of a calendar): You love a roadmap! You like to sketch it all out first so you always know where you're headed. OR: Pantser (drawing of pants with wings): You prefer to wing it! You like to dive in headfirst and figure things out by the seat of your pants. NaNo2.0 logo in corner with blue bubble outline and fountain pen nib.

Writers come in many flavors: some w/color-coded spreadsheets, some w/a flair for chaos & a dream. 😎 Which are you? Knowing your style is half the battle! (the other half is ☕️, but you already knew that) nano2.org #NaNoWriMo #NaNoWriMo2025 #NaNo2point0 #PlannerOrPantser #preptober #NovelPrep #EduSky

Spiral notebook open to a page with "What is NaNo 2.0?" paper clipped to the top. Images of a hand writing, an arrow, a star, a paper clip, an open book.
