I've never tried it before. Here's to hoping my all-business semester doesn't throttle my muse.

Novel-length fanfic about HUK THAK! Awesome

It will be the best NaNoWriMo thing ever written.

I want to try, but I don't think I can do it.

I've done it twice now.

If we're going to do it, we should do it as a group so we can keep ourselves productive : D

I'm definitely giving it a shot. I wish I could register before October, though.

I'm tempted. I have stories, but never the drive to write them down.

I may give it a shot.....

In seriousness, I might give it the old college try, unofficial-like. It really depends on what my real life-situation is come November.

Umm... what kind of stories do they accept?

Because I've got a story in mind... but, well, it's not exactly the "usual material"...

Click the link up top. They've probably got something in the FAQ.

It doesn't matter, as long as it's 50,000 words

They "Advise" you to not do fanfiction, and not to use plots you've already thought up, but they have no way of actually enforcing that, as they only look at wordcount.

YES, you can technically copy/paste, but Nano is about personal goals, not winning to impress people.

Subject: Re: NaNoWriMo Mon Jul 09, 2007 2:03 am

I won Nano year before last, and completly stuffed it last year.

It's a pretty awesome challenge, which literally forces you to be productive if deadlines are your thing. I highly recommend it. : )
