NaNoWriMo

Post by Aeridus »

It's that time again! Who's gonna attempt it this year? :D

I'm totally gonna make up something on the spot, no clue what it'll be.

Its a yearly thing round here Serge, he kinda figured if you went in a thread called NaNoWriMo you'd know what was going on. Its National Novel Writing Month.
National Novel Writing Month (also known as NaNoWriMo) is a creative writing project in which participants attempt to write a 50,000 word novel in one month. The official event is held every November. Despite the name, the project is now international in scope. 101,767 writers participated in 2007, yielding 15,335 reported winners. Participants wrote 1,187,931,929 words in 2007, according to the project's website.

I want to do this, but at the same time, I'd prolly just suck it up.
I'm glad 90's style forum signatures don't exist anymore.

I intend to, but the last week has been quite busy, and I spent all of today playing videogames... So I never came up with an idea. Heh?

I'll still try. Better than not writing!

Definitely not this year, although it'd be fun to try some day. Maybe after I finish school.

I'd really love to do this one day.

But I do not have a hope of finding the time.

Ah well.

As usual, it's not an option for me. November is a busy month for us Australian teachers. All that marking to do.

Yeah I can't. Finals is in december so all studio work needs to be done by the end of November. I got two paintings and a large drawing plus I don't know how many books to make.
