For those of you who don't know what NaNoWriMo is, it's "National Novel Writing Month," and it's every November. You have to write a novel in one month, and there's a word-count goal you have to get to to win. And now there's also NaNoWriMo in June and August!
Here is the plan to help you get through NaNoWriMo, or, to be exact, Camp NaNoWriMo.
- Devote time to it. If you have a busy schedule, you'll need to put NaNoWriMo in it for at least 2-3 hours.
- Don't be distracted. Do not let yourself be distracted from your writing. Focus only on the novel, not computer games, Facebook, Twitter, or anything else.
- Keep it up. If you want to become a published author one day, you can't give up. I'm not saying that you'll publish your NaNo novel, but still, you can't give up.
- Stretch. You can't just sit for two or three hours and type. You'll need to get up at least once and take a quick, relaxing walk to refresh your mind.
- Play music. I love playing music when I write.
Hope these help, and good luck!

That sounds like a very good way to approach it. Simple and straight forward with a dash of chocolate which is music.
