We’ve got a lot of things to talk about, including a couple of games I finished in October that didn’t quite fit the spooky theme.
Before all that, however, NaNoWriMo has begun!
NaNoWriMo, or National Novel Writing Month, is a yearly challenge to write a 50,000 word novel in the month of November.
I got started at midnight, and so far I have 5,300 words written of a new supernatural horror novel. So even though our focused look on horror in video games is at an end for this year, I have another horror-themed month ahead for me in my writing. This year’s novel is partly inspired by Silent Hill 4, so I’m looking forward to getting into it!
Are you participating in NaNoWriMo this year? If so, what sort of project are you working on?
And this was the first year that the Celebrating All Things Spooky contest had slightly different rules, so if you have any thoughts on that, please share those in the comments as well.
Here’s to a fun and productive November!

5,300 already??? I still need to start! Then again, both of us are old hands at doing NaNo at this point…
Definitely, that helps for sure.
You’re already ahead of you being ahead from last year’s NaNo. Good job. 😮
Haha, thanks!
