50,000 words by December. Are you up to the challenge?

I'm not doin' it, but I thought it deserved a thread.

A link might have been nice. I had to google it:

http://ywp.nanowrimo.org/

Since it's for Young Writers, I don't think I qualify (unless I can use emotional age).

Actually, it's for everyone, that's just a special section of it.

The mafiascum NaNoWriMo thread is already at 95 replies, this forum sucks.

I'm gonna do it. Well...I'm gonna try. I've got a few short ghost story ideas knocking around in my head so I'm gonna try and string them together, maybe using some kind of 'Creepshow' style framing device, and see if I can get 50000 words out of them. To get me started, I'm going to include this post in my word count.

While I'm not officially entered this year, I did set a goal to write 2000 words a day every day this month. So far, I'm at 0.

Damnit, NaNoWriMo people are having a meeting at my Books-A-Million tomorrow from 6:30pm to 9pm, but I probably can't go because A. the buses don't run that late, and B. the people who run my apartment building don't want me out that late anyway.

Once again, I likely won't be participating. Not that I don't have a story. I do (and this time, I actually have the whole story, start, middle, and end, and sequel potential). I'm more concerned about my imeadate future and geting enough money to pay bills at the moment to worry about such a luxary as "free time for writing".
