Anyone heard of it?



Anyone doing it?



smile.gif



I signed up today (a bit late, i know) *is insane*



For anyone who hasn't heard of it, the Nanowrimo or "National November Writing Month" is a challenge to write a 50000 word novel in the month of November. smile.gif



... and no, i don't think I'll finish this. But it looks fun. biggrin.gif

Good luck! I'll be waiting patiently for you to post it on the forums when you've finished so we can all read it tongue.gif

21285 words ... nearly halfway. biggrin.gif

Am I seriously the only person doing this? ph34r.gif

Ooh, sounds fun! I, however have no spare time whatsoever at the moment *sniff* so I'll have to give it a miss!

How's it going, CPPF? What's it about?

Brilliant idea biggrin.gif

I started it, on Nov 3rd, as we were away until then over half term. I managed about 485 words and what I wrote was, I thought, rather good ( wink.gif ) but then I got writer's block sad.gif So I've not done any more since!!!!!

So I'm going to try again next year when I am a bit more prepared (like having a plot worked out....) laugh.gif laugh.gif

Good luck to anyone who's doing it, and meeting their word count targets.

I've no time either really, but this month has made me realie exactly how much free time I *have* been wasting. ph34r.gif



Good luck for next year then Hazel! smile.gif It's good to know that someone else has heard of it!

Yeah. A plot does help. >.> I'm working mine out as I go, which is a bit bleh...
