Anyone else participating? I'm loving the flexible word count goals. In honor of April also being National Poetry Month I'll be writing Supervillain of the Day 2:1 - The Rhymer.

I...don't know. I've never done Camp Nanowrimo before.

So, now you all know what I look like.

*sighs* Looks like I'll be sitting out of this one. I don't have time this April due to a couple events at work and possibly an out-of-the-country trip that will require many weeks of preparation.

Besides, I'd like to finish the projects I have started out and am currently working on before I start another.

I'll just cheer on you guys. *whips out pompoms and waves them enthusiastically*

Well, I was planning on doing Camp NaNo, but since I don't even have the energy or willpower to finish a short story at the moment, I doubt I could do any good on a novel. :P

Well, I might. I just need a push so I can finish the rest of my book and since there is a deadline, I will HAVE to write. XD

I'd like to...but I'll be a rebel again. Probably mostly world-building and revising. :D

If you like, maybe me and you and anyone else who's interested could do a miniature Camp NaNo for you, since you can't join up with the main site. :)

Hey guys & gals! I have a suggestion, maybe we could make a cabin for this NaNo?

Out of interest, has anyone been doing Camp Nanowrimo April?

I meant to do it. I signed up, even. Aaand then I basically forgot, and at this point there's no way I'm finishing. :P

Yep. I'm behind. ^_^

K, I think that needs a little explanation.... Thing is, I've done NNWM several times, and I've succeeded every time. The problem was...it was boring. It wasn't a challenge to write fifty thousand words – it was just a writing regime of 2500 words every week day, which I never got behind on a single time during the entire month. :P Bleah. Anyway, I've been having more fun with camp NNWM. :D

I'm glad you're having fun with it. :) I think it's important to have fun when you're writing. Not that writing can't be hard work at times, but it's important to really enjoy it, I think. :D

:) I still have never done a Nanowrimo. I should try it one time, I'm just not sure I'd have the time.
