Nano is, so far, going very well. I've not yet ran into many problems with regards to writing 2k a day, with 5/6k over a weekend.
I'm currently ahead, i think, with 15, 242 words, and I'm aiming to get to 20k by midnight on Sunday. This is good, as the end of this month is going to have so much happening, I'm not going to have the time to write much, if at all.
I think this one flows, for me, much better than my other novel, for jonowrimo. the structure is much more flexible, being told from the PoV's of two women, a Norse Witch, and a Roman Prophetess (or at least analogues of those cultures), as well as occasionally the Pov of the witch's guide; a witch herself, the goddess incarnated as the prophetess, the journal of another noblewoman, and a female captain on a very strange journey, slowly being stripped of herself. They are intentionally female, and, unlike my other novel, all have a relevant role in the novel, and actually do stuff, instead of always being pushed into doing something for someone else.
The styles are also all very different, so If I get too bored, i can just switch VP and go off on a wild flight of verbal fancy.
Valente has really affected my writing style lately, I'm going to have to be very careful of that.
In other news: Very, very happy Obama won. Much less happy Proposition 8 got passed.
