if you do, and don't make it to 50k, you still have a bunch of writing done, right? ::NUDGE:: (t- lookin' at you too)

Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

Because books.
Seriously. I think you can make NaNo what you want it to be. My goal is just to blog every day for a month.
If you use it that way, and don't focus on the result, I think it's a great idea. (Or if you play by the rules, obviously.)

I decided to sign up just this morning, Liese! Dooo eeeet!!
Because I need to spark creativity in my life in general. I haven't explored yet, but my username over there is jenbefore.
I have such envy of and admiration for storytellers. You people with the characters, and the plotting, and the world building, and the... storytelling! I just don't even know.

Okay okay! I am so susceptible to peer pressure! None of you offer me any drugs, okay? I signed up. I even gave myself a randomized title. But I don't know how to add you as writing buddies! What do I do?

I'll hereby declare myself with Amy: a post a day. For any number of personal and professional reasons, I need to practice the form and figure out what works for me. I imagine this month will be all over the map. I am working on putting up a WordPress blog, but I'll start on LJ, because if I wait until all the stars align, I'll be the world's oldest blogger.
I will try not to make it all about the dog.
eta: Should I sign up, even though I'm not writing a novel, at least not this year?

I keep thinking I'm going to use NaNo to finish the big fic I've been doing for years, but I never do.

Okay okay! I am so susceptible to peer pressure!
Woo hoo! Ahem. Depending on the peers, that is.
Ginger, if for nothing else, there's a progress tracker and stuff, right? Plus, your writing buddies [insert cheesy grin].

This might be your year.

(No, I have no idea why I'm suddenly in here pom-pomming my way through a thread I usually just lurk in. I'll return you to your regularly scheduled programming soon.)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Where's the signup?
Just...for curiosity's sake, yeah?
