I just found out about this a few days ago. Write a novel of 50,000 words or more in the month of November. I think I'm going to give it a shot.

Cool! I'm gonna try. I always wanted to write a novel anyway and this is just what's gonna motivate me to

I'm considering it. I just don't know if I have enough time to write that much in one month.

My problem with it exactly. That and the fact that I can always start writing something but rarely finish.

Ah well, I'll give it a try!

With school, art and finals... and probably a job, I couldn't do it.
But it's a nice thought. *nods*

Not to mention, my novel would probably suck.

I did it and got on the Winner's List last year, I'll try to do it again this time. For all you first timers, 50k words is a lot bigger than it sounds o_o

Wow, that sounds like it'd be fun. Sadly, I don't think I'm going to have time to participate

If only I didn't have a piano exam the same month! *laments and moves on*

*secretly plots*

It sounds really interesting though. At first I thought it was only for the USA since it says "National", until I read that it's open to all countries. Maybe next year.

Someone told us about this at school. I'd love to do it next year, but I'd have to write it with someone else as there is no way I have time to write that much in one month. I have a bunch of plot ideas though.

After my two year writer's block right before the completion of my first novel (which took me almost a year), I decided this was a great way to get back into writing, so I'm going to try it.

Not sure if I'll succeed, though.

I'm giving it a shot.. it's sad though, 'cause it's two days 'til the start and I've barely got any sort of plot in mind. I guess that's the fun of it, though! XD

My friend roped me into it... she made me promise last year. I thought she would forger, but no such luck.

I'm giving this a shot. ^_^ I know I'll probably get Writers' Block halfway through, but then nothing ventured nothing gained, right?

So far, So good. I hope you all finish yours

I thought about it, but anything I want to be decent is handwritten...and that's a lot to write in a month. =P
