NaNoWriMo

[PhoenixStarr]

Been doing it for five or six years now. For this year I'm using a story I outlined a year and a half ago with a main theme of the inherent subjectivity of good and evil and what it takes to push the protagonist over the metaphorical line between the two. I'm really excited.

[Audreyfan101]

YES!! NaNoCamp begins in 7 days!!!!!

[Chiaki]

What's the difference between NaNoCamp and NaNo in November?

[SilverX7Studios]

Maybe I'll try it out this year. :3

 

And it's during the month of my birthday! x3 Awesome!

 

...Although I've never written anything before in my life. lD

 

 

 

[Kestra15]

Not a hope this year - my first placement is due to start beginning of November.

[Mousia]

Starting today...

I hope I can get it done. I mean, I've written 50k stories, but never in one month. Oh well.

[klinneah]

Definitely hoping to do it this year. Every year I get a little bit farther...

 

Hopefully with support I can make it at least a little closer than I was last year.

[KageSora]

Oh god I just remembered about this and that I wanted to spend some time this summer plotting out my next story and I haven't done that and summer is like over now.

 

Well, better get to it!

[Joyful]

It sounds tough, but I have an idea of what I want to do. I probably won't finish though. I'll try!

[sparkle10184]

I did it last year and I won

[satyr76]

Agh, I want to do it, but I have school in November. dX I'd probably lose anyway, since I've never written anything longer than sixteen pages.

[Obscure_Trash]

The whole point of NaNo is to ignore those voices in your head saying "I'm too busy" or "I'm not good enough" and to just do! Just give a try and I think you'll be surprised what you can accomplish. :3

[epicguy10000]

So wait...do you just type up a 50,000 word thing, without worrying over mis-spells, improper grammar and such, and then you have a rough draft for a novel? If so that is extremely interesting....

[Obscure_Trash]

Yup. Editing is for after the fun of writing. Editing is when you worry about quality for this. o3o

[NixAyum]

I think I have an idea for an actual novel now.

 

If that fails, I'm writing a series of short stories/AU scenes from my other novel. =D

[satyr76]

Okay, I'm probably going to go for it this year as long as I'm not totally swamped with homework. I have a vague idea of what I'm gonna do, but I haven't thought a plot yet.

[Raistlin24]

I'll try it this year. I don't think I can write 50k words because I've never written anything longer than a few pages but I have an idea for a plot.

[HeatherMarie]

I have like 8 different plot ideas, none of which are fleshed-out enough to be an actual novel (or hit 50k). I need to do some serious planning.

[Chiaki]

I'm actually ridiculously excited about this, I need to get to work on some plot ideas!!

[sarrepta1]

Geeeeeeeee, this sounds neat! I might as well sign up.

 

But there are some problems:

 

a. I'm a lazy person.

b. I have school.

c. I'm a really slow writer and can't get at least five chapters of a short chapter book done within 2 years.

 

And I'm not exactly in that writing habit that most writers get, so it might be kind of painful for me to have to write that quickly.

[NixAyum]

I have an idea of what I want to write, and I think for October I'm going to start finding time to set aside for reading/writing/planning for NaNo. I don't write nearly enough now and it would be way too hard to go from nothing to almost 2k words a day, so it's time to start exercising the writing muscles.

 

I'm glad I have a whole writing club here at school for motivation.

[Shadowflame]

Ooh yay, the NaNo thread has been revived? :3

I wasn't going to do NaNo this year because school is already killing me, but I can't not do it so yeah~ let's see how it works out

[Mousia]

Don't be afraid, guys! Just write your heart out for a month. It's very soothing.

[Zovesta]

Think I'm gonna go for it this year. No idea what I'm going to write about, though. Maybe I'll just cheat and write a script with prose breaks instead.

 

Anyone here that I can call on for wordwars in a month?

[Pixxelation]

I think I'm gonna try with a Hunger Games parody.

Decided to do something much more creative. I have the plot mapped out. You'll have to wait and see what it's about >8^D-)=(
