Nanowrimo July 2013

So for all you writers out there, you might be familiar with National Novel Writing Month, or Nanowrimo for short. If you're not, it's an opportunity to write a novel in a single month with thousands of other people who are going for the same goal.

While it's usually set in November, they do like to do one or two during the summer as well. The site is here:

Camp Nanowrimo has one big difference from the main event, and that's the matchmaking portion, where you're assigned into "cabins" of people who are writing similar stories.

I remember we had a few people participating last November, including myself and marbs, and since it's summer and a lot of stuff has died down, I'd like to see who's interested in participating this next month, and see if we can have a place to share ideas and frustrations with each other, and maybe even have some critique sessions.

OR BETTER YET, TEAMSPEAK READINGS.

Today is the 27th, and the event spans all of July, so there's not a whole lot of time left to come up with an idea. The goal is to meet 50,000 words, which is 1,667 words a day. It's a difficult challenge that not everyone can make, but it does feel good when you come out having finished something.

And that's only the beginning!

Post here with your Nanowrimo IDs too, so we can buddy up.

Well, I did wake up only a few hours ago. But this is why we are rivals, Mega.
