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!

When it’s tough to quiet your inner editor, remember Terry Pratchett: "The first draft is just you telling yourself the story." You can always go back and edit, but first you’ve got to get something on the page. Check out NaNo2.org for resources & inspiration as you dig into #Preptober. #NaNoWriMo
