NaNoWriMo

 Images Banners Nano 06 Icon 120X240Okay people, I'm doing it. I am officially enrolled in the annual NaNoWriMo competition. What is NaNoWriMo, you ask?

NaNoWriMo stands for National Novel Writing Month. The challenge is to write a 50,000 word novel (about 175 pages) in the 30 days of November. Everyone who finishes wins! You win your name on a list of other people who finished, and certificate (that you have to download and print out yourself), and a "Winner" image you can place on your blog.

Will I finish? Will I only write one chapter, one page, one sentence, or a single word? Who knows! Only time will tell. But the way I figure, I need to write 1666.66 words per diem, which is uhhh.. like six and a half pages each and every day for a month.

I figure I used to spend the time on DIY:happy (which has recently spun off to new management) so I shouldn't have any problem doing it. And by "shouldn't" I mean "most definitely will."

Anyone want to do it with me?

This is one hell of a post. Although I can't say that I truly agree with everything that you've said as my own personal experiences have told me differently, I still enjoyed it. Keep up the good posts
