I would have liked to give it a go, but November is always a finals month for me. Here's the website for it if anyone is interested www.nanowrimo.org/

Is anyone (planning on) participating this year? I am going to try again, so I am curious who is going for it too! I know that it is really hard, but I will not be working that month, so I am giving it a try!
Is anyone going to try?

I hope that you do try this year! November is busy for me too, but that might even give me more inspiration

I saw this book on Shelfari and I thought it might be useful to some of you; it's called "No Plot? No Problem!: A Low-Stress, High-Velocity Guide to Writing a Novel in 30 Days". I might try reading it, the idea of NaNoWriMo interests me

I know, I am already thinking of buying it. If you do get the book, will you let me know if you like it, and if it's really useful for the writing? I am also interested in script frenzy (in april), that's similar to NaNoWriMo, only then you write a script and not a novel. Well, we'll see if I can reach the 50.000 words first in november.

I think this is a great idea! I'd like to participate, mostly because I haven't finished a story in years. I do have lot of beginnings and middle parts but not a completed stories.. But I will be working on my thesis, so I propably don't have too much time to spare. Mayby I'll try, it would be fun.

Nah, I've been getting the emails.. but I've got at least 4000 words to write for college.. so I guess that's a bit more important
