What ideas do you have? Think about organising them in some way so they create a coherent storyline (e.g. a synopsis, a timeline, etc). There are a few different structures you can use to help with planning, Freytag's Pyramid and The Hero's Journey being some of the more well-known ones, but you don't have to use those if you have another you think fits your storyline better.

Who do you want to be in your story? Where do you want it to be set? You have a choice of either developing a character for your story or the setting of your story (or both if you can), but I'd like to see as much detail as possible for either. If you are creating a character, you can describe their appearance, their backstory, any strengths or weaknesses or character flaws, their motivations and maybe even why they are significant to the plot. If you are creating a setting, you can develop the area's history, describe its current appearance, mention any significant characters that are located there and again include the location's significance to the plot.

How often will you be able to work on your story? Set a daily/weekly goal to reach, and hopefully it can help to motivate you, or make it seem easier to complete 50,000 words in November. To reach 50,000 words, you will need to do at least 1670 words per day, or 12,500 words per week, but you are welcome to create a schedule that fits your availability.
