Re: NaNoWriMo and you! Let's write during November!
So we actually doing this?
I mostly ask because without the support and talking-about-it part, NaNoWriMo always seemed to actually be kind of alienating to me - i.e. its first effect was usually to make me realize that there's billions of people out there now who are literate enough to write something, and I wasn't that special D:

I'm down with doing this. Been meaning to start writing a screenplay for an idea that I had. While I can't guarantee I'll have a draft finished anytime soon, due to my 12-16 hour work schedule , at least it'll motivate me to get started.

Re: NaNoWriMo and you! Let's write during November!
Ehh... I'm horrible at finishing things. I have had a story idea kicking around in my head for a while, even have an outline and an intro paragraph. But, frankly, I'm not a very good writer. I know practice is really the only way to get good, but it's hard to motivate what even I view as not-very-good.
But I have a plan for November, and this fits right in. So... I'll give it a shot.

To help encourage people in this community to keep writing, I'll post at least one sentence a day (preferably a paragraph, but I don't always get that much time) in this thread.

Yeah, I'll be doing this, for real this time. Aiming for the whole 50,000 word thing.

Re: NaNoWriMo and you! Let's write during November!
Oh, it's 50,000 words? Well I guess that's doable.
I've probably averaged more than that per month since July. In the last month alone I wrote ~85,000 (and no, that is not counting school work and forum posts) >__>

God damn, I finished today's goal in under an hour, thanks to Write Or Die. Of course, the writing is horrendously shitty, but that's expected from NaNoWriMo. Today's excerpt:

Re: NaNoWriMo and you! Let's write during November!
Cool, I see you got a start.
I'm doing pretty good here myself. I should have a revised "proof of concept" doc done on my visual novel thing by tomorrow, and then I'll get back to polishing my detailed character profiles and plot outline so that I can then give them to people to look at. Probably by the middle of the month I'll get back into doing (placeholder) art and writing actual dialogue.
