Deal on Writing Software
« on: November 28, 2017, 03:44 PM »
I finished my NaNoWriMo efforts even though I have a lot going on... quite the accomplishment if I do say so.

I have a couple of winner coupons for useful software that I already have:

Scrivener and Scapple 50% off (The code won't be there until 12/1, but if you're interested, feel free to PM me now and I'll send it to when available)
Aeon Timeline 2 - The code is available now for 30% off.

PM me, and first come gets it... you have to be an active member of the forum to be eligible.

Congratulations!! Are you going to share your novel with us?  At least tell us about it and about your experience with NaNoWriMo.

It's terrible, and I know it's terrible.  Towards the end, because of my job and work on a contract, I was just throwing words at the page.  In the beginning, when I was fresh, and everything seemed like it was coming together, I wrote a lot.  Then there was the week or so when I didn't write anything.  And even now, I'm working under an impossible deadline at work, while working on something for a client.  I'd say I'm going back to edit and revise... but I never do.  But there is an imperative that I don't have the rest of the year, and it helps me to carry that over for other writing.  I look at it as a way to push myself, and energize myself for other works.

I have sent you a message as soon as I saw the post. Today it is 12/1, is the Scrivener coupon ready? I just can't wait to buy it.

I joined the forum in 2006 and I read the posts in rss mainly. English is not my native lanuage so I didn't have many posts but I am really an active member in about 10 years.

It's a great achievement to complete by the deadline. I have never even contemplated the possibility of attempting it. Agree about the enabling effect of disabling the permanent quality control editor sitting over your writing mind; not that I have ever found such a switch myself  :-[
