How to Write A Novel in 30 Days! 📚 (tips for Nanowrimo)

have you ever wanted to write a book? well… November might just be the time to start it! 🩷 i successfully completed NaNoWriMo last year, and you can do it too. i wanted to make this video as some of you requested i share my tips, so this is what i learnt!
first of all, NaNoWriMo is a 30 day challenge during the month of November where the aim is to write 50,000 words within the 30 day period. this can be any genre of novel or book, or it can just be personal writing 📖
and secondly, PrepTober is the preparation for NaNoWriMo during the month of October, where we plan, plot, outline, and prepare ourselves and our story to be written when November comes around 🙌🏻
as a neurodivergent person, writing and dedicating time to one project can be daunting. it sometimes feels impossible to concentrate and put my limited amount of energy into one thing, but i do have some tips. whether you like plotting and planning your entire plot outline or not, i promise you planning will be your best friend. time scheduling, dialogue prompting, scene listing… the list goes on (no pun intended).
but here’s my top 5 tips for writing a book in 30 days during the month of november, so that if you’d like to you can join and do the NaNoWriMo challenge along with me this year!
good luck 😉

My name is Zara Beth (zeezee25 on tiktok) and I post videos about disability, neurodiversity and what its like living with Tourette's Syndrome, Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) and a chronic illness called Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). Tourette's syndrome is a neurological condition causing involuntary movements called tics.
I use my social media (TikTok, RUclips and Instagram) to advocate and raise awareness for my conditions and show what it is like living with a disability as a neurodivergent person.
I am also autistic and share my sensory struggles along with my experiences with mental health disorders.
I show what its like having a disability and the accomodations I have to help my daily life. I am also an ambulatory wheelchair user showing my life using mobility aids and how symptoms change from day to day!
I am also a musician with a popular song called "She's Mine" available on all streaming services - I wrote, produced, mixed and mastered all my songs myself! I am also an artist and a writer. I love reading and I'm currently writing a novel and a book about my life!
