It's that time of the year again. Hopefully I'll be a little more committed this year. I had to like, completely quit last year xP

I plan to do this but haven't even worked on an outline yet because SAT this week and general laziness. I need to get started on this like...now, because I have a concept without a direction to put it in. :T

Spoiler : short rant - ignore :
I want to do this and I have more than enough time, but... it's starting in two days and I have almost no planning done yet. I won't make an outline for the plot, I'll improvise a lot on that as usual, but there's still planning the characters. If you've played any of my trials you should know why I don't like that. I can't even get started on it... it's like a writer's block not only for writing but for planning too... and the fact that I keep looking at NaNoWriMo forums is only making it worse - the standards are so high there!

I'll just write a series of ficlets about existing characters, because even that is much more than I can usually write. Meh.

My English teacher offered to give me extra credit if I accomplish this. Looks like I'm not backing out now.

Planning and writing an entire first draft in only 30 days, in most cases ensures you'll have to do a lot of rewriting afterwards to be satisfied. But like last year, I'll keep an eye on this thread and gain some motivation from it again hopefully. Also still the same novel as I was writing last year, these things do more often than not take time. A lot of time. I don't expect to finish it this month either but I will get ever closer.

Basically what I'm saying is, if anybody feels stressed while taking part in this, don't. Be satisfied with what you do write and take your time to create something you're proud of.

Got 827 words done today in the short prologue. Feeling confident about this. I think I might be able to do it.

Now to figure out how the f*** it ends.

Oh these words are delicious

I actually came up with an idea, so I'll be doing this, I suppose.

Despite me and my horrible writing abilities, I'm going to give this a shot myself. I've come up with an idea myself so I'm feeling pretty confident that I can get it done. (Zeta Speed and all.)
