November is here, and with it, this year's NaNoWriMo! For those who don't know, NaNoWriMo is short for National Novel Writing Month, a thing where you try to write 50,000 words in the month of November. You can find out more and, if you wish to participate, track your progress at https://nanowrimo.org/
Who will be participating this year? What will you be writing about? Feel free to share your profile if you want to find writing buddies here, and post snippets if you wish!
Personally I intend to participate this year, but find myself completely unprepared as I still have yet to come up with a novel idea I'm enamored by, even though the month has started, oops Hopefully inspiration will strike within the next 24 hours!

Kestrad has been eaten by life. She'll probably pop back in occasionally.

I know it is A) not 2022 and B) not November, but I spotted this and wanted to wave to a fellow NaNoWriMo do-er! Did you write this year, too? I just finished the book I started last month and I'm left wondering what to do with myselfKestrad wrote: ↑November 1st, 2022, 12:33:37 am November is here, and with it, this year's NaNoWriMo!

Re: NaNoWriMo 2022 Discussion
Eyy, hello there fellow NaNo-er! I did write this year, though I used it more as a way to get myself writing every day, and ended with a whopping like 7k-ish words? I have since fallen off the wagon again, but I'm hoping to pick up the writing paces again in the coming months. Maybe one day I too will have a finished book!Rilian wrote: ↑December 31st, 2023, 4:23:42 pmI know it is A) not 2022 and B) not November, but I spotted this and wanted to wave to a fellow NaNoWriMo do-er!

What's your book about? You could always go back and edit, now that it's finished, or start a new one

Re: NaNoWriMo 2022 Discussion
I wanted to try my hand at writing a fantasy voyage adventure story a la voyage of the unicorn and voyage of the dawn treader. It was quite fun! Probably why I was able to finish it lol. I think I might try to polish up some old fanfics now…
How about you? What’s your 7k about?

Re: NaNoWriMo 2022 Discussion
Well, it started as a riff on the current fantasy trend of fairy tale retellings with fae who are just hotter, more powerful humans, wherein I attempted to make the fae hotter and more powerful but uncanny humans. Then when I had trouble with that story I started working on a dragonriders story that unashamedly plays that genre mostly straight. I also wrote an opening to a romance novel but I don't necessarily intend to keep working on that. Also some flash fiction. So basically a lot of experimenting to see what I actually want to write.Rilian wrote: ↑January 1st, 2024, 1:55:51 amI wanted to try my hand at writing a fantasy voyage adventure story a la voyage of the unicorn and voyage of the dawn treader.
