Alright! NaNoWriMo is upon us again, at least those of us who feel like dedicating November to writing 50,000 words of an original work of fiction. Basically that's all there is to National Novel Writing Month, and I encourage anyone and everyone to join in. If you love to write, this is a great chance for you to write more. If you don't know if you like writing, this is a perfect opportunity to find out. If you've ever wanted to write a novel but just didn't get around to it, now is the time! |

I'm seriously on the fence this year. I barely got a start last year due to laziness, writer's block, and time. This year I'm going to have even less time. |

Hmmm, I've been thinking about it this year. I've made a couple attempts in the last few years and always gone off the rails within the first two weeks This year though, things are pretty well aligned for me to find the time and have a word processor near at hand, if I can just come up with a 50,000 word idea. The only hitches are a birthday, Turkey Day and a baby shower that might involve traveling and very little writing. |

If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama
I'll be doing this. Most likely. As long as I manage not to start yet... Which may be a problem. |
|
Bollocks.
One week!! Ah! |

I have something percolating in the back room now, so I might just get in on some NaNo action. |

All week I told myself I'd get everything ready and plan out all of November. |

This guy, , and this guy, , are mine. BACK OFF!
I think I finally know what I'm writing about. |

2 more hours until the mahem begins! Ahh! I don't know if I'll start at midnight, though, as my thoughts might be a little incoerrent, but who knows. We'll see. |

Excited~ I've got ten hours. I'm dropping whatever I am doing and starting writing. |
|
Bollocks.
So I just figured out I did like 15 words per minute this morning. That is totally WAY too slow. |

Word counts anyone? |

Third day and I'm at 7100 abouts. I'm a little unmotivated. |
|
Bollocks.
Start of day 5, and I'm on 12500. I've got nothing on today, so if I'm lucky I can get 3000 or 4000 words down. |

I have all the time in the world (minus ~6 days) so I'm gonna make an attempt this time... |

I'm not sure why, but when I first saw the title, something in my brain assumed this was about some kind of anime con or something. Dunno what I was thinking, but it scared me away from the thread until now. |

Yarp. I thought maybe you hadn't noticed, because you write like I write. |
