Is anyone going to participate?
It was recently brought to my attention and as I've never paid attention to my writing before, I checked to see how many words I write in a day, as NaNoWriMo requires 50,000 words in an entire month. It really surprised me that on average I write between 3,000 to 10,000 words a day (not that it's quality... but NaNoWriMo doesn't care). Does anyone else find writing to be very therapeutic? I tend to write fiction, but input problems I'm having in reality into the writing as a way to analyze and organize. I've written near 300,000 words in this year, and I thought my brother was wordy...

I would love to be able to participate but unfortunately, I don't have the time because I have to study for my A Levels.

Maybe when I have the time and the confidence, then I'll take part.

I completed it last year, and I'm doing it again this year. I'm posting my updates on a blog every day, so people can read as I write (and hopefully encourage me to continue). I'd love it if some of you would like to read it. I'm really updating it every day, so come have a look!

There is actually a lot of people I know on a certain fanfiction.net forum that are participating in this. I decided to stay out of it, because I don't think I'd be able to keep up with something so tedious. :P
