NaNoWriMo 2006

Sat Sep 30, 2006 9:19 pm

It's that time of the year again, can you believe it?
Apologies if I post this one month before October, but I really couldn't wait. I've been looking forward to it for all the summer :D
For those who have no clue of what I'm talking about...

What is NaNoWriMo?
It's the National Novel Writing Month! The goal is to write a 50,000 word novel during the month of November. It might sound insane... well, actually it is. But that's half of the fun! (The other half is getting high on caffeine, mess up your sleep patterns and losing your social life for 30 days :P)

So, tomorrow the NaNo site will open registrations again... who's going to join from PPT? Last year there were quite a lot of people...
My plan is to get an outline done this month, I've already got some ideas. I absolutely don't want to end up like last year where my novel was absolutely crazy, and I don't want to use monkeys again.
Oh, and I'll need a NaNo set :lol:

I'll probably get involved. :)

I had a stab at it last year, but didn't really know what to expect so I didn't commit myself to it properly.

I think I will try again this year though, and maybe I'll have a plan in my head this time lol

I know a couple of people are taking part in this :)

Sounds tempting...

I'll probably join depending on how my senior year goes.

I might do it this year...I have a good idea for a story already. :)

That's really cool!! I'd like to try it, but I'm already working on a novel for my master's thesis that's due in January. I'll have to keep it in mind for next year, though. Good luck to everyone who tries!

I'm trying again.

And maybe this time I'll get more than 3000 words... I didn't have any idea what I was doing last year.

Oh I'm definatly doing it this year. :D

Sun Oct 01, 2006 7:11 am

I'm joining. (Thanks, Kym.)

I'd join, but November is always the worst time of the year for me (exams).

I might try next year, as I'll be on a work placement.

Sun Oct 01, 2006 2:12 pm

I'll be there again this year, I'm loving PPT for introducing me to it in the first place! <3

Sun Oct 01, 2006 3:32 pm

I'm doing it. :)

YOU BEAT ME TOO IT!
I wanted to do the NaNo thread! :cry:

I'm good.

I've already got my idea and my account from last year.
If I'm gonna make it is unknown.

Sorry DM... but I'd been planning to make a thread since mid-August :P
I have 2,800 words of outline done too, I just can't wait for it to start.
*pokes the nano site to open again*
