I think my sub-conscious is trying to tell me something! And, yes. NaNo is definitely a good time to play around with things you might not normally try :)Rebecca T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11994380364321336824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6734108232999147338.post-2477888178694403772012-11-13T05:34:49.187-08:002012-11-13T05:34:49.187-08:00Good ideas!

All the times I tried NaNo in the past, I always seemed to give up after just a couple weeks, so I imagine changing some things up would help keep the first draft alive!Heather R.
