NaNoWriMo
I’m tentatively going to have a go a NaNoWriMo. I don’t hold out great hopes of finishing, but when I realised that I only needed to write 1666 words a day, it didn’t strike me as too much of an arduous task.
I figured that 50,000 words wasn’t in the realms of War and Peace, but should provide a decent short first draft that could easily be adapted into a film. If nothing else it should help my touch typing speed.
I’ve got an idea of what I’m going to write, someting I plotted out while on holiday last year which should, I hope, might make a decent fantasy story.

About Andy Coughlan
I write stuff down and try to make films out of it. Sometimes I succeed.
I also write novels, like The Elementalist and code things, like Scribomatic, Brolly or Not? and Geeky Gifts.
Current projects: A short film, The Man Who Wished which I\'m also developing into a TV series.
What I'm Doing...
