NBR - Anyone doing NaNoWriMo this year?

For anyone who isn't familiar, NaNoWriMo is National Novel Writing Month, which happens every November.  The goal is to write a 50,000 word novel in the month of November.  You can check it out on NaNoWriMo.org

I'm curious if there's any other NaNoers out there.  I've attempted it for the last few years, but haven't won yet.  I'm sure I'll at least TRY again this year, though with mush brain I'm not sure how well writing will go.  Guess it's about time to start brainstorming ideas.  If anyone wants to add me as a writing buddy I'm SheHulk on the NaNo site.

    I already finished my novel but it's a series so maybe if I push myself in November I can get the second book done! I write down plot points on notecards to keep the flow going so maybe I'll be successful with this goal this year! I'm excited.

    I LOVE writing and making up thriller plots absolutely captivates me. I'm glad you ladies are participating this year! It will be my first time, too.

    I'd planned to do it this year but pregnancy brain has totally killed my writing. Talk about a lack of focus/ consistency.

    I was totally going to do it, but now my laptop is broken =(  I don't think I'd have enough time on my hubby's computer to get it done so idk.  I'm still deciding whether or not to try haha, which is a bit late since it's November already ahh!

    Well there isn't a panel of judges who read all the submissions. Think of it less like a competition (because it really isn't a competition) and more a literary cleanse. Get all your ideas on paper and worry about editing later.

    Yeah, it's more about crossing the finish line than coming in first haha.

    I've never heard of this. I write short stories on my lap top when I have the time and creativity hits. I will have to check it out. Thank you for the info on it.
