NaNoWriMo Anyone?

And so it begins....

I will, try at some point to get something done.

 

I heard about it a day before it began but it sounded pretty good, so I thought what the heck.... I had a couple of ideas in mind for short stories (fantasy) more or less in the same universe and so I've decided to see if I can somehow put them together in a bigger story.

Anyway, I haven't done much prep for it and already finished just under the daily recommended word count... As I'm going on vacation in November as well, I have no idea if I will pull it off... But I'm going to try and even if I get stuck at say 30000 or so, it will still have been worth it, I think.

 

I got no sleep last night so I spent the rest day doing nothing but sleeping pretty much. My novel is going to be philosophical science fiction regarding dictatorships. Along similar veins as 1984 but with a slightly different viewpoint.

 

Yessss! I love Nanowrimo! No idea what to write this month though. I completed one 50,000 worder in 2012 that was drivel-ly goodness

I'd like to work with a genderbending sci fi storyline, but who knows.

 

Sure, if I don't lose the will to have way through.

 

I tried it a few years ago and just couldn't get the time and motivation to follow through with it. I haven't had enough time to try it since then simply because I've been swamped with everything else going on. Maybe I'll be able to try again in a few years and actually get somewhere.

 

NaNo, that evil thing, that addiction, that magic, my fingers are trembling, my coffee machine is steaming, you know you want it, you know you are bound to do it, come on, come on... :help:

:icon_bigg

Haven't started yet, but who knows... I do, tomorrow I'll need to get 3000+

 

wth is dat???? :-o

 

Yes, that's what I'm thinking. I'm not used to writing original fiction, mostly write fanfic which is somehow easier as a lot is already in place. But I do want to write my own stuff too so... My largest fanfic was somewhere around 25000 so I know I can write that much took me a lot longer than a month though... Good luck to you too!

It's this crazy thing where people try to write a novel of 50000 words in November... which is great if you can pull it off but even if you have less words, it will still have given you a real boost to write (if that's your kind of thing)

 

I'm afraid I won't be doing it this year because of work and school and preparing to move. It's going to be the second year in a row I've skipped out. However, I'll probably be doing Camp Nanowrimo in April and if all goes well, I can try regular Nanowrimo next year.

 

I was gonna do it this year, but I have too much going on this semester to get any time to actually sit down and write something decent.

 

It is a lot! My daily word count is definitely lower than it should be yet at the same time I've written a whole lot more than I would have otherwise, so I still feel it is worth it.
