NaNoWriMo

AKA come write 50 000 words in a month. It's fun, I promise. (Moar info here.)

So, any other NaNoers here? (I'm Artaxiad Prescott.)

If so, got a plan yet? What's your novel about?

[EndOfTheEarth]

I bet you'll make it. 5k of that 50k was written today. It's been a pattern with me; once I pass 45k I just have to finish.

Based on that, I bet you could pull off 2.5k per day. Best of luck!

[Fate]

24k. I can maybe recover. Maybe.

[EndOfTheEarth]

It's that time of year again! Who else is up for the challenge?

[Lamp Post]

I dunno.

I've been without my laptop since school started. So I'm behind in everything, atm and not done any planning.  Might go at a dystopian idea I had like 6yrs ago, but. . . finding anything on whatever that idea was might be a hassle.  

So I'll definitely be doing something, but 50k might be more unrealistic than usual. XD

[Fate]

It's going to kick my ass this year, but I'm doing it.

Superhero novel. Male protagonist. Both things I've never done before. So we'll see how this works out for me.

[nathan_p]

I might try, but if I pull anything off it'll be some sort of drug-fueled tripfest since, while I have free time this year, I spend most of it on pain meds.

[EndOfTheEarth]

We'll call it an experimental modernist work and the critics will never know the difference...

[Fate]

I haven't read it yet (because who has time for that) but the first NaNo pep talk I got an email for was from

James

Patterson

and I think I died laughing a little.

[EndOfTheEarth]

I don't think I'm even going to bother opening it. Besides, what does he know about writing books? He hasn't written anything in decades.

[Fate]

Just hit 10k. I was doing really great until today when my laptop decided that I needed to do a system restore and slaughtered my writing time. *sigh*

Still not half bad, all considered.

[EndOfTheEarth]

Did it save the file, at least?

[Fate]

Yeah. I keep everything on a jump drive, so it was fine. Just annoying.
