For the general Nano chatter (ie: debating whether to participate, comparing notes, whatever) that doesn't seem right on your personal board. =D

I'm not sure whether I should participate or not; I always procrastinate these kinds of things (much to my dislike), and even if I break it down into writing X words per day, I'm not sure I'd be able to motivate myself to proofread it. =/

Holy crud, it's NaNo time again? XD; I should get plottin' on my plot.
Which means, yeah, I'm probably gonna do it again this year. Perhaps with not as much success as last year, but I guess we'll see.

I'm actually debating doing it this year.  I had an idea in mind, but now I'm questioning whether or not I want to use it. >_>; But now that I think for a minute, I have another idea I'm toying with, and may just go with. =3 Yay! ^_^ Eh, I have what, just over a month before it starts? =P Plenty of time to procrastinate think. =D But if I do decide to do Nano, it'll be my first-ever. 8O ... So expect lots of questions from teh newbie. xD |

At first I didn't know if I wanted to do NaNo this year because of my current novel, but I decided that it's best to take a break from it and stretch myself away from my usual. XD So it's crazy plots for me!

....Nano.  I have had my plot in mind for several months now. Crazy. I'm exited and curious to see if I'll make it this year. ....not to mention it counts as extra credit. >__> Really psyched about it. I should probably plot a little more on it, though. |

I'm excited and nervous at the same time =D I'm really psyched to be writing on this world at last, which is a sort of steampunk-fantasy-semi-dystopia, but... I've hardly got my plot planned out at all, and I only have four characters! XDDD
Well, who knows. Being spontaneous might result in less plotholes and complications than the uber-complicated-and-planned Spiral of Atlantis. Which I still need to finish and edit and so on D:

NaNo! Yay ^^
I did this for the first time last year- it was a blast, and the novel that came out of it is one of my favorites ^^
So...now I just have to finish editing a (different) novel and finish last year's NaNoWriMo novel by November....that should be fun.
I'm a little worried about time though...last year, I was able to get four hours a week outside of general free-time to work on it...I won't have that this year =/ So I'm a little concerned that I won't be able to win this time...which I think would be odd, since I did make it last year.
So...yeah. Now, to wait for October. And then November.

Every year I tell myself "I'mma do it this year!"
...and then I never do. =(
50k words is too much for me. T_T

Yay. I am so excited for this year. ^_^ I have no reason to plain forget, so hopefully I'll be able to do it. *crosses fingers*
50k is a lot. I'm a little uncertain whether or not I'll be able to think of a strong enough plot without adding too much fluff. Or switching halfway through. xD But anyway, yay! I can't wait! =D

... Hmm. It took me like four months to write fifty thousand words ... but what the heck, this sounds like fun. =D I could finish the first draft of my book and then take a break to write this. If I come up with something cool enough.
... Actually I have a few ideas. This warrants further plotting. *slinks off into a corner to mutter about not being a fast enough writer*

I might. Might. Just might. Depends on how the rest of the semester plays out.

I'm dry on ideas, and I might just pass on the NaNo this year since I've had a lot on my hands. But some friends of mine IRL are going for it; I might join in.
*still deciding*

I might. Might. Just might. Depends on how the rest of the semester plays out. *would very much love it if you did* ..partially because I want to see more Kit-writing, but partially because I think it'd be awesome. And, as I'm sure you've have noticed, I'm doing NaNo this year. With a lot more planning than last year. I'm not sure if the planning will help or not, honestly. But seeing as the second part was my original idea, I should be able to hit 50k with both. Hopefully more. I'd really like for more. |
