Novelist at work at writing 50,000 words!

BLOG SESSION
November 4th, 2017


Good Afternoon Novelists ~ It is Saturday, November 4th, 2017 and we are all working on our fantastic Novels this month.  As you all know, this is National Novel Writing Month, and we are excited about getting another Novel written this year.

We have been discussing the various literary genres that we are all choosing from in terms of the selection of the subject matter and area our Novel will be based on.  Many Writers head for the area of Fiction, but there are so many other areas that we have to choose from.  Check out our previous Blog Sessions to see a few of the genres we have covered already...

Also, we discussed participating online in NaNoWriMo in our previous Blog Session entitled . . .



When it comes to the Genre you choose, whatever your genre, be it Fiction, Fantasy, Chick Lit, Epic, Tragedy, Comedy, Creative Non-Fiction, Drama, Horror Fiction, Literary Realism, Romance, Tragic Comedy, Mythology, Classic, Legend, Folklore, Crime/Detective, Fable, Fairy Tale, Fan Fiction, Fiction Narrative, Historical Fiction, Horror, Humor, Legend, Magical Realism, Meta Fiction, Mystery, Mythology, Mythopoeia, Picture Book, Realistic Fiction, Science Fiction, Short Story, Suspense/Thriller, Tall Tale, Western, Biography, Autobiography, Essay, Owner's Manual, Journalism, Lab Report, Memoir, Narrative Non-Fiction, Personal Narrative, Reference Book, Self-Help Book, Speech, Textbook, Instruction Manual, Adventure Novel, Imaginary Voyage, Political Fiction, Political Thriller, Pulp Fiction, Religious Fiction, Contemporary Christian Fiction, Islamic Fiction, Jewish Fiction, Saga, Family Saga, Paranormal, Alien Adventure, Mythic, Urban Fantasy, Supernatural, Didactic,  Commentary, Diary, Journal, Manuscript, Poetry, Religious Text, Prophecy, Revelation, Biblical Theology, or a Scientific Writing . . . remember, the possibilities are endless!

Be sure to do your research online relative to the Genre that you are choosing for your Novel.  You'll be sure to gravitate to a certain genre once you have an idea of what your Novel will be about, or once you start typing or writing away in your Journal.  In addition, further research about the genre you are choosing will open your eyes further to what types of Novels are already published in your genre area.

Take time to look around online at the Books that are written and published in your Genre area.  Also, check out the Book Stores and spend a few hours browsing around in the various genre areas . . .

Your Novel is sure to be a joy to write.  As you work on writing your Novel online, keep an idea in your head as to how your Novel Cover will look.

Last year, I had thought about the Novel Cover for the novel I am working on this month, entitled, "HouseCapades".  I had written a short story about "HouseCapades" that was published and included in an Anthology entitled, "Twisted Shorties II", written by Pam Brittain, Compiler, A.F. Stewart, Author, and many other Authors and Poets from our late Gather Community (now off line), and I decided I'd write a Novel with the same title this year for National Novel Writing Month on  NaNoWriMo...

Luckily for me, a friend who has an awesome artistic talent was kind enough to offer her skill with designing the Novel Cover for HouseCapades long ago, which I am currently working on...

Isn't Francine Langlois an awesome Artist!?  I'm so impressed every time I look at any artwork that she creates!

I'll ask her if I can share her link with everyone here.

See you in our next Blog Session dear Novelists!
