{NaNoLove} Tiny Audio: NaNoWriMo Eve

Today is Hallowe’en. And tonight is NaNoWriMo Eve.

{NaNoLove} Tiny Audio: NaNoWriMo Eve

If you’re a fiction writer — even a dabbler — I hope you know what I mean. If you don’t, please check out the National Novel Writing Month website.

For the past month I’ve been Tweeting daily with the #NaNoLove hashtag, which I co-created along with the ravishing Eleanor Wragg. With the help of the uproariously witty Tori Deaux, we’ve generally been trying to rev up writerly peeps in preparation for thirty days and nights of literary abandon. You can find the NaNoLove sub-forum, created and moderated by Tori, here on the official NaNoWriMo site.

This year is my first NaNoWriMo. Because I’m so indulgently meta about almost everything I do, I’ve committed to keeping an audio diary of my thirty days of NaNo. I’m calling these NaNoLove Tiny Audios and right here, you can listen to the first one.

Right click here and select Save Link As to download the audio to your hard drive, or left click to play in-browser.

I’ll work on getting RSS set up for these so that you can have them delivered straight to your Inbox or your reader. I’m finding this podcasting syndication thing to be the absolute most challenging techie thing I’ve ever attempted. For the record, I’ve sunk about eight hours of research, video tutorial watching, and fiddling into figuring out how to embed audio files on my site and then get Feed Validator to recognize my podcast feed that — sigh — I’m a little weary of it. But I shall press on, and probably hit up Srini Rao on Skype for some h-e-l-p.

Meanwhile, enjoy the first NaNoLove Tiny Audio. And if you’d like to join the #NaNoLove Twitter community, tweet me @abbykerr and ask to be added to the list.
