Today is Halloween which means it is officially the end of Preptober. Today we’ll be chatting about what it means to be all in for November and how we can use these last few hours to prepare ourselves for the next 30 days.
Pat Yourself on the Back
If you have been going through Preptober with me, I want to give you a huge round of applause. You guys are seriously amazing and I hope you know how awesome you are. I am so freaking proud of you guys for getting ready to embark on your NaNoWriMo journey with tools in hand so you can go all in tomorrow.
The fact that you’ve committed to writing 50,000 words over the course of the month is truly mind-blowing. We are getting ready to tackle on a huge goal and you’ve already taken steps to set yourself up for success. So pat yourself on the back.
When you commit to getting after your writing every single day and work on achieving that novel in NaNoWriMo, that’s you proving to yourself that you can do anything. Let that sink in. You are a powerhouse of a person who is ready to take on NaNoWriMo.
I am proud of you and I am so excited for you.
Now What?
We’re here. We’ve arrived. It’s the moment that we’ve all been waiting for.
NaNoWriMo is here.
…Now what?
You can take the knowledge you’ve gained from this Preptober series I’ve been doing and dive straight into NaNoWriMo. You have been prepping throughout October which means that you’re ready to tackle NaNoWriMo. Just remember to take a breath and take your time as you go.
You could also revisit a lot of the content that I’ve created for Preptober as well as Preptober content from other creators. I like to do listen to others talk about NaNoWriMo throughout the month to remind myself that I’m not alone in this journey. This keeps me focused and it can help keep you focused too.
Lastly, go all in. Don’t hold back on your NaNoWriMo goals. Stay focused and keep working on your novel. Just think of your why and keep going.
