Is anyone participating in the "National Novel Writing Month" (NaNo WriMo) this year? There's more info here: www.nanowrimo.org/ I was going to give it a try this year. It'd be my first NaNo WriMo! Trying to work on it in a blog format to encourage feedback, writing discussions, and all that. I haven't started putting the story up yet, but the blog is up. Here's the addy: thenanoanchoress.blogspot.com/

I was talking about this on another message board, actually. I may enter, but I know I'll probably get a week in and just forget about it.

If you guys are participating through the website as well, we should friend up. Moral support! My name is "PixelsAndPies". So, yeah, if you're in my neighborhood, shoot me a friend invite.

Sounds interesting, but I don't think I could even read a novel in 30 days. Maybe when the kids are older...

Hit the halfway mark. Over the weekend I hit 25k, and according to the website I am right on target, sitting on 26k since last night. Right now, this post is the equivalent of a marathon runner reaching out to the crowd for a cup of water.
I just want to finish!
(... and play DragonAge, which is a tempting mistress in the midst of this literal discipline)

Hey, well done, OurLadyWar! *Goes to take a look at what you've written* Now, that is... creepy.

So! Started working on the 2nd Draft of this one. The link I put up in here should lead to the beginning of the story, draft 2. I'm going to try and put out a new chapter every Monday. Lots of you on here are good writers, lots of you are also brutally honest. I'd love some second opinions thenanoanchoress.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html

Yeah, motivation and a computer at home would be the primary assets to me participating. However, I'll happily look into your story and throw some opinions your way.

Judging by the name "NaNo WriMo", I assumed that this thread was about some kind weird new Anime craze. If FLCL and Gurren Lagann can be titles, so can NaNo WriMo. ^__^

Sorry! Yeah, this was a thread from last November. I was doing "National Novel Writing Month" and was looking for creative support. I figured, since I was having another go at the 2nd draft of the story I wrote for last year's NaNo WriMo, maybe I could get second opinions on here again. On the other hand, for this year's NaNo WriMo, I have no clue at all what I'm doing.

Oh no, no need to apologize. Really, it's a comment about how weird Anime names are. ^__^
