Greyboxing

So I am in to my second day of writing for Nanowrimo.

I am trying something different in how I write. I have been reading Blood Sweat and Pixel by Jason Schreier[note]Fast becoming one of my favourite Games Journalist. With this and His article on Visceral Games[/note].

One of the many thing informative things that stuck out for me was ‘Grey Boxing’. It is when the designer of a game created basic level that are grey so they can try and test out different ideas. This resonated with me. I and one of those writers that get obsessed with getting everything perfect before moving to the next thing. And grey boxing is great for me to just try and get everything down as quickly as possible. Especially during NanoWrimo.

So I have started NanoWrimo.

Nanowrimo is the National Novel Writing Month. Which mean that you have to do Fifty Thousand Word by the end of November. This is about one thousand six hundred and seventy seven words written every day.

I am aiming to do about two thousand to aim high and build up a buffer.

My Nanowrimo Account is AdamDavidCarter1.

I will post with updates to my progress.

Wish Me Luck.
