Hello, everyone! It’s been a minute since I’ve posted to the blog. I figured it was fitting for my comeback to consist of my NaNoWriMo plans! I’ve participated in NaNoWriMo the past two years and I’ve hit 50k words both times. This year, I plan to do something different from the past couple of years. This year, I’ve selected four indie authors that I admire, so I can attempt to mimic their writing style as I draft my NaNo project. So, basically one week of writing in the style of that author. I have reached out to these indie authors and they explained what their drafting process looks like for them. I plan to mimic them to challenge myself to think creatively while drafting my NaNo project. This year, I’m writing a NA romance with triggering topics. I wouldn’t classify my project as a dark romance because it’s far from that. There will be topics discussed in the story that are not suitable for all audiences, but I plan to include a list of trigger warnings. The indie author’s I have decided to mimic for NaNoWriMo are:
Miriam Rosentvaig, a contemporary romance author (for now). Jane Apatova, a fantasy and spicy romance author. Sarah Sutton, a YA romance author. Sabrina G., a mood author who writes in the genre her characters tell her to write in. Three of these authors are plotters and I am not a plotter, so I definitely have my work cut out for me. The order they are listed here is the order I will mimic them in. Week one belongs to the wonderful Miriam Rosentvaig, author of the Dysfunctionally Perfect and Acting Like We Care series’. You can find a link to Miriam’s books below. Join me for the "Write Like My Favorite Indie Authors" series. Let's hope I can continue my NaNoWriMo winning streak!
