Nanowrimo

[ericadawn16]

So, this is my first year of Nanowrimo. I haven't written a single word...

*facepalm*

I have finally filled out my profile. I think I did it right. I don't know what the sponsorship link is...

Friend me.

It's kind of terrifying right now...

Is there any sort of Nanowrimo etiquette? Do I post the word count each day? What about excerpts?

I added you! Don't worry about not having a word done; usually the first three days are like this, you have an idea but can't get a word down. But then BAM suddenly you're half way done nad loving it.

I added you btw, I'm Monkey Princess :)

*adding* I'm muzical over there :)

If you want a place to post excerpts and/or word counts, I help run a nano comm here on LJ, along with a sprinting community.

Sprints are a lot of fun and a great way to get your word count up! :) Good luck!

Awesome! I've been doing it since 2006 and have yet to hit the magic word count goal. Doesn't stop me from trying though! And I really like my idea this year.

I'm Maddy over there and have added you as a buddy.

I love the synopsis for your novel, it sounds epic.

Oh, and most people update their word counts at the end of the day. I do it after each writing session (I write at lunch and after dinner).

Thanks...now I just have to keep it epic so it doesn't suck...

Also, I'm only 18 words along...

I'll friend you. Don't worry this is my first time too, and with my busy schedule I don't know if I'll make the 50,000 limit; I'm still going to try though.

I didn't realize there was an actual site for it! i've always wanted to do NaNoWriMo but I end up just giving up on whatever i'm writing. i'm tempted to try, though. what happens after you finish it?

[ericadawn16.livejournal.com]

I think you get the pride of finishing...and possibly a certificate or something.
