NaNoWriMo Buddy - 2017

Pay it
Forward

25 value Virtual OK

Thinking about doing NaNoWriMo but don't want to go it alone? Me neither! Let's work together to write our novels. I'm able to chat daily during November, and can talk before about what you'd like to write, etc.

My idea is that I check in daily, talk about how the writing is going. Maybe give advice if you'd like. It would also be cool to meet up if you are in the same area as me, but obviously not required. :)

I would prefer to friend you on the NaNoWriMo site as well so that we can compete, but if you don't want to that's ok.

Training & Qualifications


I have been doing NaNoWriMo almost every year since 2013. So far I have only completed 1 novel, but I have learned something every year and I love the experience. I don't know what novel I'm going to do this year, but I have a few ideas! I did the NaNoWriMo with my friend in 2015, and actually finished a novel (that I'm still working on... but still! I finished it!)

Trading Preference: Pay it forward – pass on the good deed!

Alyssa needed help with WordPress. She was warm, eager to learn and extremely pleasant to work with. I got her blog squared away and left the session ...feeling a little better about the world. I would work with her again without hesitation. show more

About Alyssa W

I'm an EHS professional, knitter, reader, artist, health nut, and part time runner. When I'm not commuting to and from work in Boston (2 hours a day!! UGH) I'm probably cooking, reading, or hiking. My... goal for 2018 is to run a 5k, it was my goal this year but a foot injury has made me postpone it. I love to create, either through knitting, painting, doodling, or experimenting with food or kombucha! I love my job, and enjoy talking to people about Environmental, Safety, or Sustainability issues. I am actively trying to become zero waste (despite my husband's love of candy bars) and otherwise lower my environmental impact. I grew up in upstate NY to a family of nurses and teachers. Now, I live in an apartment in Manchester, NH, USA with my husband and my cat, JT. I dream of living on a homestead, as a novelist, growing all my own food. Probably not practical... yet!show more
