There’s only five days until the start of November — and NaNoWriMo.  If you’re still struggling to find a plot, settle on your characters or work out the kinks in your settings, we’ve got a few handy one-page sheets to help you.  Today’s is the Quick & Easy Setting Notes page.

It can be hard to keep track of settings, particularly prior to NaNoWriMo.  Print out a copy of this sheet for each setting your characters will interact with, or write in the details with your favourite image editing program, and note down the details for each town, city or general area that you feel will become important to the story (or stories) so when you start writing you’ll remember the character’s hometown smelled of lavender or that the wasteland was a thriving village only fifty years before.
