I have never participated in NaNo and I can't this year either due to my push to publish my first book. A writing challenge sounds like fun, though. How do you all like it?

I go by the same name on there as on here.

I will be entering, assuming my health improves significantly by then.

Or I may desperately try anyway.

You should try desperately and push yourself, Joel.

I know you can do it.

I've started my novel, otherwise this would have been great! I could always pretend to be joining in and write 50k words on my present novel.

@Riah - Your post made me even more excited for nano!

I'm in college, but really, I'll be happy with 5000 words, so time's not important. BTW do you have to wait until November to start?

I was a rebel for both June and August Camp NaNo, and I recall that Elly was one for August too.

I've never done NaNoWriMo before, and I am tentatively considering seeking to write 50,000 words on a novel in November, but I have a question: Is there any benefit to officially signing up for NaNoWriMo, instead of just writing the 50,000 words?

Thanks for the info. I'll probably join, though I don't know how active I'll be there.

I like signing up just because you get a handy page to track progress, can see things like how much to write per day, have a page to see the stats of all your writing buddies, and other things. Personally, I don't even use the forum. I've maybe been on the forum part three or four times.

I started a Writing Groups thread on NaNoWriMo for Holy Worlds members.

I know this is a little early, but I'm super excited because I have a new novel idea and I want to use it for NaNo this year! Who else is planning to participate? Here's some questions for you to answer. As for me: What is your NaNoWriMo username? I go under the username "twylawrites" How many years have you participated? This is my second year. Last year I only made it to 200+ words on the site, 700+ words on a document. What sort of story will you be writing? I will be trying my hand at a Science Fiction/Fantasy novel this year. ~Calen Quote: NaNoWriMo Usernames List: Azlyn A. Mimites = P.

Oh cool! is happy to see this thread so early My username on NaNo is RunningWolf. (Should we make a list in the first post so it's easier to see everyone's names?) Um...third year if you don't count my first year which was on the ywp version (when I made a smaller goal than 50,000). Hmm....I'm thinking it'll be fantasy but I'm still figuring it out.

I'll make a point of doing that, Lycanis. Note for everybody: If you have the ability to, feel free to add your name to the list. If not just shoot me a PM and I can do that for ya. ^^ Either that or I'll check up on here and add them myself.

My NaNo username is Lady Idril Aravis. I've been doing NaNo for five years now. 2007 was my very first year, I think. This November, I'll be writing a historical fiction novel about an event that happened during WWII.

Post subject:	Re: NaNoWriMo 2012
I'm not planning on participating. I'll be too busy with college and critiquing. And on the off chance I have time to write, I'll be too busy writing to get on a the NaNo forum. However, I can still answer the questions, I guess. My NaNo username is The Leprechaun King. (Surprise. ) (Feel free to friend me, but don't expect me to friend back for a while. XD) Last year was my first year. I think I made about 200 words then. Maybe less. If I do write during November, I'll be focusing on a fantasy novel.

What is your NaNoWriMo username? J. Grace Pennington, I believe... if not, I'll change it to that. How many years have you participated? This will be my third year. What sort of story will you be writing? I have not decided yet... it might be the third Firmament novel Machiavellian, it might be Rumpled, one of the books in Aubrey Hansen's and my steampunk fairy tale series, or it might be something new I've been percolating for a few weeks. Or it might be something else. I need to decide.

What is your NaNoWriMo username? I go by Jason Jackson on the YWP site; I don't have an account on the adult site. Not yet, anyway. How many years have you participated? I've been doing it since 2008, and wrote something for each one except the 2009 one (I couldn't come up with an idea). What sort of story will you be writing? I hope to try my hand at a military story, centered around the British SAS.

Unfortunately, my doctor just informed me that I'm suffering from an acute form of the condition commonly known as college. Its symptoms include, but are not limited to, extreme fatigue, mild insanity, random blurting of words like "cytoplasm" and "dependent control", and a severe allergenic reaction to NaNoWriMo. Due to this unfortunate turn of events, I won't be participating in NaNoWriMO this year.

I think I was being a bit ambitious myself, so we'll see if I can get any novel writing in. I may dedicate myself to building the plot, world, and characters during that time. We'll see how my homework goes. I'm rather bummed about this.

Post subject:	Re: NaNoWriMo 2012
covers head Nonononononoooooooooooooo not already! I nearly killed myself trying to win last year. I got to 29k and decided to validate on my YWP account. This year I will be too old for YWP and won't have that to fall back on if I can't make it to 50k. This scares me. On the other hand, I have become acquainted with Word Warring, and I can average about 10k a week without breaking a sweat. So many I'll try it again this year. My username is Alpina'sQuill. http://nanowrimo.org/en/participants/alpina-squill I pretty much have no clue if I'll be ready. I should work on my Sci Fi but I need to do lots of World Building. shrug

My Nano name is Kypie27, This is my first year, I just signed up yesterday. I've never so much as written one chapter of a book, so I'm hoping to fix that. Well I've got a few ideas. I'm going to spend the next month working on plot and setting and stuff. I'm in college, but really, I'll be happy with 5000 words, so time's not important.

What is your NaNoWriMo username? Idk if they still have my last year's account up. But when I get my account I'll be Aratrea. How many years have you participated? This will be my second year of doing it; I reached 50k last year. What sort of story will you be writing? I'll be completely rewriting last year's NaNo from scratch. I'll be trying to avoid Nano-style writing (aka, the 'quickly-write-whatever-you-can-think-of-on-the-page weak kind of writing ) so I'm not sure if I'll reach the goal this year since I'll be trying to be more deliberate in word choice and such, but we'll see... My sort of story is fantasy, of course.

Cool! I think so, but it depends on the person I guess. The NaNo site lets you see your progress, how many words you need per day to finish on time, your stats so far...and all that info for anyone you've buddied (other HWers mostly, for me) so you can poke people. Also there are busy forums there that can be helpful (though of course we all have HW as well, their forum can also be useful ).
