Quick NaNoWriMo advice (Patreon)

It's November! Good luck to everyone participating in NaNoWriMo this year! I hope you have a good experience! Here's some quick advice in case it's useful:

1) It's okay to write just for yourself. 

2) It has to be done before it can be good. Aka you can't revise words you don't have.

3) It's not the end of the world if you write 47,000 words instead of 50,000. Or 30,000, or 15,000.

4) Every word you write helps you learn about the novel you're writing and should make it easier to move forward with the project.

5) If you get stuck on something, consider whether you can put in a bracket like [look up the distance between these places and how to get there] so you can keep moving forward.

And if you want some more advice on writing quickly, here's my recap post about writing the first draft of Hexomancy over 31 days.
