I've got about 10,000 words into my baby, maybe I'll set a personal goal to multiply that by 5 for NaNoWriMo. I'm so bad about it - - too many projects at once, I always put it aside.

So we can put the characters and setting together through October and start writing on November?

Is it cheating <_< >_> to start on it right now?

If I can set the storyline up before I write I'm down. I don't have to animate and all I do is write anyway. 4 hours of sitting their typing sounds like fun.

It begins...

I wish i could do nanowrimo this year, but i have other pressing projects at the moment (gonna try and finish some of them before the end of the year)

I'm going to say no on this because I'm going to have projects happening in November that I don't want to fall through.

I've decided that I am gonna sign up.

And besides the general story idea I've got in me noggin', I'm personally just gonna go into it guns blazing and hope I hit a target. No pre-plannin' for me, nosiree!

Sounds like you're diving belly first into the north atlantic from a hundred foot drop with not even a rubber ducky to help keep you afloat once the hypothermia sets in.

I'm not signing up, though I may just give it a try regardless.

Do you think net would mind if I shrank the banner? I don't like them to be more than 40 pixels tall...actually I don't like my one that's 36 pixels tall. I think I'll make it a tad bit larger

*by the way it's too late. Honey, I shrunk the banner*

Dun Dun Dunnnnnnn

I started doing it last year, then school started kicking my ass and I had to default. Now I kinda want to make the story I was working on into a comic, except then I'd want to draw it really awesome and I can't draw that well... yet.

Won't be able to do it this year either 'cause I'll be in school again. Eight weeks of 6 day a week school. With quizzes every week. And if I fail two quizzes I get fired. argh.

I wanna read yours Net, when you're done. You write real purdy.

Heh, thanks. This one will be of a different quality than my forum fictions, because I'm going to be editing it as well (whereas the forum fictions are straight from the pen, as it were). I'll have it posted somewhere, I'm sure.

I'd join, but the NaNoWriMo rules say you can't start off with stuff that you've already started writing, and I've already got two novels planned that I've started writing. But here's a promise -- I'll promise I'll try to FINISH at least one of them this month, okay?

Does that count?

Am I in?... or am I a loser?
