(real quick, if anyone doesn't know that this is, please visit here www.nanowrimo.org/ . Basically you write a 50,000 word story in the month of Nov.) So, anyone on the board doing it this year? I managed to win my very first year last year, with over 52k words. This year I've signed up for a different Nov. challenge, but I also really wanted to do some NaNo-ing. Really - now I've done it one year - it seems almost crazy not to. While it's not an official NaNo goal, my goal for this Nov. will be to finish my stupid fic I've been working on. Bus is anyone else actually doing NaNo, or an unofficial version?

Ooh, I am! It's gonna be my first time, but I've already written something way over 50k, so I guess I do have some experience in the field. I hope I'll manage it! I have a wallpaper with the word count each day to motivate me~
What will you be writing?

Well, I'm just trying to finish Time. That won't be anywhere near 50k, (I'll be lucky if it's 12k) but that's my goal for the unnofficial-ness. Last year was my first year (as I said). My story for it was Begining of Farewell: Heather's Return (I must have a thing for long titles). It was about this girl who dissapeared for a about a month and when she comes back she doesn't say where she went. Her sister tries to get her to talk, but she won't. She ends up staying with the sister and her neice, and tells the neice this story about a girl who went through a portal in her closet and went on a magical fantasy adventure. There's a big ol' twist ending which I won't reveal just in case I ever do get around to fixing the thing. What about yours? And this is your first year? Well, break a leg and have fun with it!

Ahahahaha, Write or Die. I heard about it a few days ago. Don't know if I'll try that out, I'm used to my Word.
I'm writing about Kamelot's rendition of Goethe's Faust. I've been itching to write it all year. 8DDD And Levy keeps telling me how awesome Time is. ^^
That story sounds interesting. If you ever get down to finishing it I'd love to read it~

Ohey, I may on this occasion remind anyone who is doing this, that the Ping Contest is still open *shot*
