How to Win Camp NaNo July 20227/2/2022 What if you were one decision away from finishing writing your book, or starting the one that gets you a contract? Today is the perfect day to start a Camp NaNo Project. You could write a poem every day, finish four short stories, write 10 chapters of your book, outline a new project, draft a screenplay—literally whatever you want to do, you can do it! What is Camp NaNo? I’m glad you asked. Camp NaNo is a choose-your-own-adventure writing program that runs twice a year, in April and July. Unlike the rigid 50K word requirement in November, during Camp you get to make your own goal, and it doesn’t even have to be writing—you can also edit previous work. Camp is meant to increase your engagement and productivity towards writing, so any kind of goal is a good one. You don’t have to track your progress with the website if it falls outside of writing or editing. In fact, I’m not tracking my project this year because I’m splitting this July between two of them. While I’m waiting for beta reader feedback on a story, I’m going to continue writing the project I started last NaNoWriMo. Once my beta reader feedback comes back, I’ll switch to the other one. If you have more than one thing to work on, I recommend splitting your Camp between them to avoid burnout. But you didn’t come to this article to read about my project, you want to know how to win. Without further ado, let’s get into my 7 tips for winning Camp NaNo July 2022:
