During November I hope to report daily on my progress in the National Novel Writing Month competition 2011. The goal is to complete 50,000 words by the end of the month. That’s 1667 word a day. Blimey!

This is a whole new experience for me – the competition itself, the intensive writing sessions and the whole blogging thing. The novel is changing shape minute by minute – it’s quite scary how it’s taken on a life of its own already – I hope I can keep it under control. Whatever happens, I’m going to have some fun here.

The novel’s working title is ‘Background Feature’ – go to the tab and read the synopsis and excerpts.
