Things I learned from NaNoWriMo #8 (#nanowrimo)
#8 Skip around.
If the part that you are writing is really hard or really boring, skip it! You have my permission to jump ahead to that cool fight scene that you are dying to write. Getting the book done is the point and writing it in order is not necessarily the way to get there. If you are feeling excited about a certain scene, go ahead and get it down and go back and plod through the annoying parts later.
