hmmm… what?

 

But, everyone’s doing it!!

 

So I thought about doing it last year, but worried I would never finish. Everyone’s doing it. So I finally decided that I, too, would jump in. So I am now a:

NANOWRIMO Participant

Yes, I will be trying my hand at writing a 50,000 word novel starting tomorrow, November 1st and ending November 30. We all know there’s a few things I’ve been wanting to write, but that I feel my skills have waned since the time I took English Composition I & II in college. My volcabulary these days is like that of my 2-year-old, it seems.

But I’m gonna give it a go. Starting tomorrow. I haven’t yet decided if I’m going to post it here bit by bit as I go, or wait and see if I get the thing finished or not. What do you think?

Now, here’s the part where you wish me luck and keep harrassing me each day about writing something. And 50 points if you can guess what I’m going to write about. ;-)

Good luck with NaNoWriMo: Daria, Nicole, Vixx, Owen… did I miss anyone?

    GOOD LUCK!!! My guess is you are going to write about 1861! Don’t worry…I’ll harrass you on a daily basis about writing ;)

    I was about to guess what christine guessed.

    I’m totally not posting my daily writing online. I’ll wait until I’m done, clean it up, and then do something with it.

    This also prevents people from telling you where they think you should take your novel, and shields you from the temptation of editing the text as you post, when you should really spend that energy on dumping out every last work you possibly can.

    But don’t let me dissuade you. ;)

    Wow! I tried last year, but failed… This year I thought about it, but I just have to many things other things to do…. So maybe next year…

    Good Luck!!! :D
    Posting here would be fun (for us readers…) but I see Owen’s points…

    your actually writing a novel? that’s cool. I hope you win and I’ll say I know that girl. A little bit. lol. Yeh I know I have bad grammar and your probably going “omg this guy is English retarded.” yeh okay. Good luck and may the force be with you.

    Oh i don’t know if its my computer or what but the blog appears to be at the bottom.

    Oooo. Cool! All the best. ^^ I would do it too if I didn’t have exams to deal with first. Lol. XD Wonder if they’ll take a novel in replacement of my papers…hehe…

    I just signed up for this. What I can’t figure out is where do you go to start writing this novel? I haven’t figured that out yet!!

    Well I actually wrote this post on Thursday or Friday and scheduled it for Monday, so… in that time I had decided I won’t be posting it as I go. I guess I worry too much what people think. :D

    You are close, it is similar to 1861 (historical fiction based on real people), but a different family (though ancestors to some of them in 1861), different situations, about 200 years earlier. :cute:
