NaNoWriMo Day #1 - 2,000 words later
Hey guys,
So if you don't know already, this month is National Novel Writing Month: NaNoWriMo.
This year I'm taking part, and I am writing The Tube. This will be the first time I've written a horror story and I am very excited and thrilled to see the response.
The Tube Blurb:
The London underground is a scary place at the best of the times, the enclosed spaces, the dark ominous lighting and the horrific screeches of metal. Well now an underground experiment has got out of control, releasing creatures into London's Tube system, these creatures are hungry for human flesh, they start to terrorise commuters. What is worse, nobody sees these creatures until it's too late. Is there anything worse than a creature you can never truly see? A creature you can't see, in a tight enclosed space.
The Front cover is designed by Joseph Eastwood and I love it loads:
So on Day One I have around 2,000 words, 4 chapters and already plenty of blood flowing across the story. I have had two character deaths and I'm preparing for some more, tomorrow is going to be filled with gruesome descriptions and ideas.
Some time next week I will be posting an excerpt and will be asking for your ideas, almost like a flash fiction, and your work may be placed in my story with loads of other things thrown in with it, so keep your eyes out for that.
Here's my NaNoWriMo link: Here
Stay safe and have fun,
Matt Thomas
