  • When It Stops Being Fun

    It's often called the muddy middle, that part of your novel writing that feels like you are slogging through and some of the fun is gone. In NaNoWriMo, it often starts to surface in week three. This week Nicole discusses how to identify what might be sucking the fun out of your writing, and how you may be able to bring it back!
