National Novel Writing Month

I may try it again. I've participated before and gotten overwhelmed with work. As it happens I'm in the midst of writing a technical certification book.

I will be there! My username is also guihong.

I did this a few years ago and actually successfully finished a children's fantasy novel (which I still need to go back and edit and polish a bit).

It's so tempting...and I also know I have a tremendous amount going on in my life in November....and I've also been threatening to write a non-fiction book for ages now.....

Ughhhhh......I'm a maybe. I'll let you know before November 1.

I have done this to some degree almost every year for the last 5 or 6 years.

This year, I am dealing with a full-time workload, a full-time school load, and this site but I think I am going to try to squeeze in some time to write and do this project again. I'll start it knowing that I might not complete it but I wanted to get back into the habit of writing a little bit every day anyway.

I am medusagoddess over there!

Yeah, last year my world got a little blown to pieces in November and I only got halfway through.
This year November is wicked busy but I'm going to dig in anyway. I'll sleep in December.

I'm tamalamadingdong over there.

I took part and completed last year. I started with one book, and it morphed into 4 that I didn't finish this year with everything else I had going on.

I am pretty sure I am going to take part again this year.
1500 new words a day seems a bit daunting right this moment but even if I don't complete it would get me back to daily writing.

I am so in love with, and terrified by this idea!
