NaNoWriMo anyone?
« on: October 27, 2012, 03:40:13 PM »
Is anyone here taking part in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) this year? I am just signing up for my first attempt at it, and was just wondering if anyone else is doing it. If so this could be some sort of support thread?! :biggrin:

I am!  It's my first time too, and so far, my planned ideas suck! XD  No idea what's gonna happen, but there's no point in not trying.

Yay! I've never tried writing anything with a plan before so I'm not going to start now  :lol: I'll just start writing on the 1st of November and hope for the best! I like that the site sends you encouraging emails throughout the month apparently. I am sure I will need encouraging emails after about the second day!

I am using it as my finish a novel month. I need 41,000 words. So if I can at least write 1000 for 30 days, I'll be very close!

I did it for the first time last year and failed miserably, but I'm going to do it again this year. Although I'm not actually doing it, because I've decided to finish the novel I started last year instead write one beginning to end. I just want to finish one before I start another. I have enough half-finished projects as it is! :biggrin:

It was helpful to have the encouragement and reminders. I really enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to it this year.

This is gonna be fun!

This will be my sixth NaNoWriMo :)  I'm a little bit daunted this year, though, because I don't even have a quarter of an outline done, and don't really know where this story is going to end up.  There's still a slim chance that I'll write something other than this story, but I'm trying to stick it out with this one to finish a saga I've been working on for some time.

I participated in NaNoWriMo for the first time last year and it was a great experience. If I weren't in the process of revising the novel I wrote during it, I may have considered doing it this year too. So, I hope everyone else has fun with it! I'll be cheering you on. :D

It's my third NaNo but the first REAL one. The other years I didn't even break the 5000 words. I have my plot ready to 80%, but left some parts undefined or really rough, so the story can take me everywhere.

Also I told all my friends and family what I'm doing so noone will be offended if I reply with a short "not now, I'm writing". Yay.

If you want to add me, I'm puuush at the NaNo-Website. Good luck to you all!!!

This will be my third year, and hopefully my third year winning as well, but I have exams until the 13th so I may die :P

Hmmm yes and no for me. I'm participating bit not full on. I'm using Nano as a time to finish one I've already started. We are starting a novel writing club for the students this month. I will be kind of heading that, so I won't have time to start a new one this year.

I'm doing an unofficial NaNo.
I won't be able to participate completely because of my crazy work schedule I am however using the free time I get to roughly draft my novel. It's been in place for years but I've yet to start writing anything other than notes.

I am undecided.  I have a plot, but I don't know if I'm going to have any time to work on it at all.  We'll see.

I'm the opposite, I know I have the time but I have no plot :lol:

I can't decide. I want to, but I just got out from under a ton of stress. Do I really want to add more? It's so much fun though.
