Category: NaNoWriMo

NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) is an event held three times a year. There are two Camp sessions in April and July and a ‘real’ event held in November. The November goal is to write 50,000 words in 30 days, but the Camp events are choose-your-own goals.

Day 30 of NaNoWriMo 2020

And at last, NaNoWriMo is complete! And we are not prepared… Well, I wasn’t at least, I hope things went a smidge better for everyone else! 😁 Even counting the code, this year I didn’t get very far along the 50k slope. But what I do have is a working game that allows you to…

Day 2 of NaNoWriMo 2020

Day 1 of NaNoWriMo 2020

So for this year’s NaNoWriMo attempt, I’m writing a text-based adventure! Since it’ll be hard to hit 50k with just the story (I’m assuming), I’m also going to include any new code written in case I have to add features and these blog updates as I talk about the game. (If I manage to get…
