NaNoWriMo

NaNoWriMo is National November/Novel Writing Month. Usually the challenge is to write 50k words for a book, but there are "rebels" who do a different challenge be it a different word count or doing a script or even songwriting. 

Is anyone else doing NaNoWriMo this month, and what are you doing? Do you have any other comments on it? 

I've done NaNoWriMo myself for a few years with all attempts failing, so for me it's more about the journey haha. I'm trying a shot at a middle grade book this year that I actually did on the side during my first year doing this.

1) If a robot does a challenge, I don't think that it should do a challenge, so I won't try and write a challenge, but I think that a challenge is good for me.

I also think the best thing about NaNWriMo is it doesn't take much effort to do something like this. 

I also like the way NaNoMo is being written and how much attention is given to the story.

I've wanted to participate, but never really had the time or mental complicity to do it. Still think I don't, but I want to try.

It's coming up again. I only started writing stories about 2 months ago. 50k words sounds insurmountable at my level, but I'm considering it to see how bad I fail lmao

I've tried NaNoWriMo once, several years ago when I was starting out my aimless bumbling writer's hobby. I didn't even last two days I think lmaoooo

Nowadays I'd probably fare much better if not for the fact I cannot for the life of me, follow a writing regime. I wish I was better at that.

i'm more of a poet or essayist than a novel writer, so for nanowrimo i tend to write a poen, blog, essay etc. everyday for the month! i complete it most years, although usually i leave them unedited and finish them all off in the months afterwards

I've wanted to participate forever and ever but i hit such a roadblock when trying to write novels. but i've been incredible into poetry lately ! i like the idea of a poem a day. i would say a zine a day but i know that's not plausible for me at school </3 will definitely have to come up with some creative ways or challenges to come up with new poems. theres only so much in my teeny brain

Hey, I was completely overwhelmed with my final semester – between a part-time job and three other research papers, I knew I couldn't give my 20-page sociology paper the attention it needed. In a moment of desperation, I found write my research paper for me . I was nervous about the quality, but I laid out a very detailed brief and provided all my sources. The writer they assigned delivered a well-structured and thoroughly researched paper that followed my instructions to the letter. It was a lifesaver that allowed me to focus on my other exams without failing the course.
