This is indeed a wonderful start to your blog book tour--and it's chock-full of great advice for aspiring novelists! The guide you've presented here is an excellent resource and can only help NaNoWriMo participants--and other fiction novelists--get more out of the writing process. Fantastic tips for getting the job done! Jeanne Karen, Thanks for hosting this stop on Lillie's tour! Jeanne Sorry to be so late stopping by, Lillie!

Worldbuilding in advance is a good idea, especially for a book set in alternate worlds. Congratulations on winning a copy of Dream or Destiny! I look forward to receiving your information so I can send you an autographed copy. Alex,

It took me an hour, then I followed that, altering it as I went along. This time I have a very detailed outline with lots of worldbuilding behind it. I'm probably going to end up ignoring a lot of it, but I have something that will help guide me if (when) I get lost in the story. Generally I find outlines help me when feeling blocked, but that's about it. I often ignore them. Good luck!!!

Just write, write, write during November. If you end up with a novel first draft, hooray! If you end up a long way from the end but with a good start and motivation to continue... well that's fabulous, too! Overcoming fear, gaining confidence, getting into the habit of writing regularly, and becoming enthusiastic and motivated are great rewards.
