NANOWRIMO

[heslop01]

I've been allowed to do it and i'm from the UK ...

[PurpleGoatM4n]

Is this "NanoWrimo" thing, international? Or States-only?

[getsuga97]

@PurpleGoatM4n

NO. NON-AMERICANS MAY NOT DO IT. THEY ARE BANNED FROM THE SITE.

[iamagrffindor]

@PurpleGoatM4n anyone can do NaNoWriMo

[thenerdBD]

What have some of you books you've written?

[SkateLikeABoss]

On Sunday, I had 10,333

At the end of Sunday, I had 16,000

At the end of Monday - i had 20,050

At the end of Tuesday - I had 28,341.

I HAD to finish because i just wasn't going to start something and not end it, so I wrote for 31 hours straight and knocked down 27,675

I had no idea how i did it, i just wrote. Oh and uhh... IMMM NANOWRIMO WINNER!! add me... SpaghettiFork

[quirkfulquagmire]

You're like the only one who says NanoWrimo the way I do :D everyone yells at me for saying it that way!

[RebeccaLovesBooks]

this is where I learned about NaNoWriMo...I should go back to that

[LadyShadowSilence]

Hey guys this is my first year in NaNoWriMo and I managed to make 61k and only have 2 chapters left before novel is done...first time i completed one actually...must be cause I outlined buttt that's debatable! Now I wish EVERYONE lucks <3

[kvglenn1]

Hey people. i NEED writing buddies. Now! Kay? Im Koral and I am fourteen. You should respond so i can make writing buddies XD This is my first year doing NaNoWriMo and I am super amazed at how much I have accomplished.

[katherine9997]

I wing it. That explains the random ninjas and unicorns that pop up in my books.

[janedalek]

@SockMonkeyTrio332 i am doing it the first time this year and started 7 days late. Any I am just slow at writing things so I have only passed 5 thousand words, but it is still great, so lte's do this. Good luck with your novel. If you want to be my friend on NanoWriMo my username there is janedalek =)

[katnissismyhero]

@amyissoawesomelike I. Love. That. Book. So. Freaking. Much.

[LoganTheUltimate]

Next year NANOWRIMO, next year you shall be mine, mainly because I forgot about yuo until yesterday

[Amyissoawesomelike]

That almost sounded like the beginning to The Outsiders hehe ^w^

[CiaraHasNoCleverName]

I'm at the throwing-laptop-out-the-window­-stage.

[lightingstrikes25]

I'm already 10 days in and wondering if i can start now??

[Nayra92]

@lightingstrikes25 Yes you can! Go write! Some people reach 50k after the first 15 days, so why not you? Even if you don't win, you are going to write much more than you would if you don't start =)

[TactownGirl]

I'm just over 20k and I reall really am stuck. I'm a few days ahead of schedual- but I'm still feeling very very stuck! I 'only have a few day bumber to get over it and I'd rather get back to work soon. AHA!*rips hair out*

[55Fanpire55]

I wish I could do this, its the first year I;ve heard of it but I have 2 GCSE's this month and I really have to concentrate on them :(

[kiran2914]

@55Fanpire55 I was in year 11 and won, now im in 6th form and still winning, NO EXCUSES

[55Fanpire55]

@kiran2914 I'm in year 10 though, I already took the first part of my maths GCSE early last year, I do need to put the extra effort in

[kiran2914]

@55Fanpire55 it isnt about getting 50k words, its just about writing

[55Fanpire55]

@kiran2914 thanks for the input but I really don't need it

[hufflepuffaphrodite2]

stop distracting me from my story KRISTINA!! HIPPOCRIT

[jewelbarnett]

if anyones on youth nanowrimo website i could use some friends! jewelbarnett

[whatever1399]

NaNoWriMo procrastination! i have to write!!!!

[potterlife1]

Outlines always make me confused. Wing it baby! And, im not not watching glee! I'll write during commercials!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[spotoftrouble]

I really should be writing my novel right now. NaNoWriMo procrastination FTW!

[Cl4ir397]

if anyone wants/needs a writing buddy im gingi101

[potterlife1]

@Cl4ir397 Oh. Hi!!!! Buddy, just sent you a message. I'm here foryou with my coffee and LOTS of candy!!!1

[potterlife1]

Hey everyone whos doing NaNoriMo send me a message. I'm potterlife1, as always. Just tellmeyou saw me in the comments of an italktosnakes vid. k,k.

[ohsnapitzlizzie]

I started on the 3rd, cause I wasn't sure if I should do it, so I'm way behind. My username is 'ohsnapitzliz' if anyone wants to add me :D

[TheChadsVlog]

@ohsnapitzlizzie I started on the third two so don't feel two bad I am already at 5015 words and if I can do it you can to. by the way I am novelwriter437

[AutumnAngelx3]

ChokingOnNothing <--- Nanowrimo name! Let's all be friends! Hahaha :)

[NoomaStar]

15 and tryin it for the 1st time!

[ArticFoxXPuma]

I only heard of nanowrimo yesterday ( the first of November) so I started writing really fast and I have reached 4000 words on day two so I'm on schedule.(if it wasn't clear, it's my first year)

[ChocolateFemke]

This is my first year of NaNoWriMo and my username is ChocolateFemke. Add me if you're looking for a writing buddy =)

[MyAngel278]

Besides, I write like 500 words in 13 minutes. That means I can techincally write 2 000 words in less than an hour. And I'm not that fast of a typer, so most people can get their writing done in LESS THAN an hour a day!

[LoveAndHearts0]

Literally none of my friends are doing NaNo this year -_-

I need writing buddies :) My username is eliza-love

[Lucykbee]

@LoveAndHearts0 wanna be my writing buddy? i'm Lucy-Literature <3

[ChocolateFemke]

@LoveAndHearts0 hey ^^ I"m ChocolateFemke and looking for writing buddies too =)

[Missilovecurlyfries]

I am procrastinating from writing.... I should go back there... BACK TO THE HORRIBLE WORD DOCUMENT THAT I HATE (even though it's only been a day) BUT I STILL LOVE IT.

[LoveAndHearts0]

@Missilovecurlyfries story of my life.

or day, at least.

[ThePockyMonster]

Oh lordy, here we go.

[tessaweasley]

This is my first year, and I am going to try it! I can't wait!

I love writing!!!

This is going to be the best!!!

[Cleopatra217]

Add me! AlterEgo21

[papergirlthoughts]

i got to 13,000 last year but it got deleted off my computer. sigh.

[TheTaekwandodo]

I actually don't have time to do it this year but that's because I'm already writing fanfiction every day!

[igothic]

First year doing it after helping some of my other friends work out plot lines and stuff in the past few years when they thought I was also doing NaNoWriMo...

[LucieAriaSekca]

@TobyClarke33 hey I'm from Australia and doing it for the first time this year too :)

[TobyClarke33]

Btw, my name is TobyClarke33

[TobyClarke33]

I'm attempting it this year for the first time, and it would be cool to have a writing buddy. I'm a 14 year old boy from England and none of my school friends are doing NaNoWriMo :(

[CatHellsky]

I'm totally doing it this year, finally! I've got two character sketches for my main characters, and I'm doing an outline tomorrow. I got my inspiration for this year's novel from a dream this morning!

[BlackLAHawk]

For some reason you remind me of Olivia Wilde.

[conich1]

This is my second year and I'm all but winging it. I have a very basic idea and a few characters but that's it. Should be interesting.

[tedioushilarity]

I've never done it before, today is the first day I've heard of it -__- so just signed up 10 minutes ago

lol

[theghostintheattic]

This is my first year doing NaNoWriMo, and I'm pretty excited about it. I don't think the "oh my god i'm not gonna make it" thing will kick in until we're actually halfway through the month. If anyone's doing this for the first time as well, add me and we can freak out together :P my username is justabitunlikely.

[ArhansSteren]

HA. School is gonna mess this year up for me.

[sylan0]

I know you said you don't care how you say it, but you said it so many times I started twitching. However all I'm going to say "wri" comes from "write" and so personally I (and by the sounds of it everyone else) pronounce it that way.

I'm trying it for my first time this year, and I'm mostly going for the wingin it attempt with only a basic plot line in my head.

Regardless good luck with yours and I've loved All Caps ever since I found you through meekakitty a while ago =)

[iMazed]

First time NaNoWriMo'er and in need of writing buddies!

[owenwswain]

Straight from the horse's month, the nanowrimoDOTorg site: "How do you pronounce NaNoWriMo? NAN-no WRY-Mo". Don't care that you don't care. WREET on.

[snowyowl10]

WHO WANTS TO BE MY WRITING BUDDY!!!!?????

i'm Today_is_Yesterday's_Tomorrow because I am the worst procrastinator in the world.

first year for NaNoWriMo, but i'm feeling optomistic :)

... despite my chronic procrastinating

[SabreMaiden]

you pronounced it wrong. D:

[moaningmyrtlewrocks]

I DONT HAVE A PLOT YET!!!!!! FREAKING OUT. and realizing how far behind i am going to be on people's drama, because Im going to spend lunch writing, nd thn when im home, im going to be writing, nd not talkin to anyone. also-does anyone want to be writing buddies? Ive never done this before....

[oddlyalli]

@moaningmyrtlewrocks DON'T PANIC! Unless you really want to, if you think that'll be more fun. If you don't have a conflict, just pick anything, no matter how cliche it feels. In the course of writing, with just a touch of creativity, stories can morph into ANYTHING. Just write what you enjoy, and I promise it'll be a success--50,000 words or not.

And sure! I'd love another writing buddy; I have the same username over on the NaNo site.

[accgirl01]

@moaningmyrtlewrocks Don't worry about not having a plot. I didn't come up with what I was going to write about until 11:58 October 31 last year and I still finished. Also, my username is vbullman93 on nanowrimo if you want to be writing buddies. :)

[moaningmyrtlewrocks]

@accgirl01 ok. *crosses my finger that the same thing happens* lol nd kk. my username is chochang4eva

[TheSwiftSoldier1]

Anyone wanna be my writing buddy? youtube inbox me your username and tell me what your name is! my username is randomlylouise :)

[La3uren]

@TheSwiftSoldier1 Hey, I will be your writing buddy, This is my first year of nanowrimo :)

[kirasact]

I'm doing it this year!!

[pinkbubbles39]

Is there anyone out there who needs a writing buddy? This is my first year, and I'm excited, but scared. I would really, really appreciate it. I'm 13 and I'm at 'adriennehubbard'.

[JustJulie11]

@pinkbubbles39 I'll be your writing buddy! I'm "JustJulie11" on NaNoWriMo :3

[pinkbubbles39]

@JustJulie11 Yay, thank you! :D I'm so excited.

[sniperium]

what better to do then write while trying to get over a fever :P

[whyibelieveitsafish]

I' am going to try... I love writing, but I seriously fail :L ah well:D

[KimsGlitterChatter]

first year of NaNoWriMo! so excited! gonna fail at school but I don't care!

[aquachick1212]

Hey guys I'm 15 and I'm in serious need for a writing buddy! My username's lapses-lingue and would appreciate ANYONE. You would be my best friend. Just saying.

[Pingufisch]

@aquachick1212 Hey, I'd totally like to be writing buddies. My username's AberHey. I'm 17 and this is my first year, and I'm kinda overwhelmed. :)

[aquachick1212]

@Pingufisch hey I just added you! This should be fun(:

[AroShottProductions]

@aquachick1212 Yo. Hey. I'm fifteen and I need a writing buddy as well. LET'S DO IT.

Add me as a buddy, I am Rockhead797. (I tried to add you but it says you don't exist...)

[aquachick1212]

@AroShottProductions Hey! Just added you(: Should be a party! and I accidentally mistyped my name on here... my bad haha...

[maddie5558]

This is my first year of NaNoWriMo!!! :D

[ohsnapitzlizzie]

I'm a13 year old, just finished my end year exam so I'm not that busy but I'm not sure if I should attempt this. If I do it'll be my first year. I'm not really a book person or anything but I guess I'd like to do something rather than hibernate in my room. lol. Opinions? :)

[iwin2211]

@ohsnapitzlizzie you should im 13 to and i wanna try cause well why not whats the harm and then we could both have writing buddies :D im really exited but all my freinds think im CRAZY well nothing new there but anyway you should nothing ventured nothing gained right??

[ohsnapitzlizzie]

@iwin2211 True. but what's keeping me from doing it is the fact that I'm not a book person and I don't think I'm that creative, so I think I'd be stuck really early. I don't even have an idea yet, lol.

[LizardLemonade]

Guys it's my first year and so far I only have 1 writing buddy. Help me out please? My username is "smartass", please feel free to add me as a writing buddy (if that's how it works? I don't know yet). I'm 16, with a lot of A-Level work. But I'm going to try it :D I'd be overjoyed for any writing buddies, honestly!

[PowerOfPie]

I spend at least an hour writing a day anyway. I'm gonna try this year.

[youngnerdfighter14]

im a 13 year old who plays 2 instraments, does 7 sports and dosent own her own laptop.

Im gonna try it!

[ThePurpleBoom]

@youngnerdfighter14 oh my god ur my new best friend! XD ok ok you don't have to. but im 13 i play trombone, baritone, piano, and guitar. And I play soccer, basketball, and run ( like everyday) and i don't have a laptop either. Good to know im not alone :P :D

[deathlyhallows713]

[BeccaDuctTapeLover]

@youngnerdfighter14

I'm 13 too!!!! :D But I do own my own laptop... only because my dad did computer stuff and got me it for 5 dollars though. haha.

[MischeifManaged7]

Needing a writing buddy---13----

MY FIRST YEAR, AHHHHHHHH

So nervous... only a week to go and i dont even have a plot, or characters, or anything....

[prettylittleragdoll]

[MischeifManaged7]

@prettylittleragdoll sorry for my delay but sure!!!! This is my first year so i need a lot of writing buddies, im PhoenixElpis

[pheonixsong97]

This is my first time NaNoWriMo-ing, and I'm planning on writing the words "Quantity Not Quality" on my arms in Sharpie and keeping them there until December. Any other tips?

[RaineAtMidnight]

I'm doing NaNoWriMo for the first time this year!!!!!!!

AAIIIIIII

[Perlasaki]

This is going to be my first time nanowrimo-ing!!

[jellybeanboxing]

I'm going to actually try NaNoWriMo for the first time. I've considered it the past two years, but chickened out at the last second.

Although, I am considering NaScEsWriMo (or National Scholarship Essay Writing Month), which I'll need to do at some point if I want to get into the college of my dreams.

[MsRainBowTights]

13 and doing nanowrimo, buddies anyone? and can i gets some info of whats the whole thing and how does it determine how your book will get published?

[MischeifManaged7]

@MsRainBowTights 13 too, and in need of a writing buddy.... freaking out cuz its my first year 0.0

[MsRainBowTights]

@MischeifManaged7 its my first year too. :D

[MsRainBowTights]

@MischeifManaged7 and do you know like the rules and stuff? someone told me your novel will get published and something about donations? ugh. im clueless! D:

[MischeifManaged7]

@MsRainBowTights sorry for the delay, but i think that you can get it published, but you have to do that on your own, and that you can donate, but you dont have too.

[clockworksky]

16 and trying NaNoWriMo!! writing buddies, anyone? :D

[SwanWatson]

@clockworksky I'm down!

[clockworksky]

@SwanWatson YESSSSS

[lisahill619]

[rattietayls]

@irisxcarina I'm 15 too and trying NaNoWriMo this year :D wanna be writing buddies?

[kawaiizmeh]

@rattietayls I am ALSO 15 and trying to do NaNoWriMo this year. :D

[3FigsInAPapayaTree]

Nerimon should have a nanowrimo account as neriwrimon. That is just what I think.

[MsChaChaCharlotte]

@3FigsInAPapayaTree Totally!

[Clashbreak]

@3FigsInAPapayaTree It should just be Newrimon!

[NoPunchIntended]

@3FigsInAPapayaTree Let´s make it Newrimon then.

[JinxDagger]

I would do NaNoWriMo if I didn't have High School. I get home so exhausted I can't do anything and then I'm up late doing homework. I tried (and failed) last year though!

[imphlatround]

Here Comes My Baby happened a year ago??

[kickassyo16]

WINGIN' IT 

[kickassyo16]

WINGIN' IT

[megasoord]

[esme96ella]

i'm fifteen too and I really want to take part, but I have exams for two weeks right at the start of November! Any advice? Does anyone think it's still worth trying around all the revising? I love writing but I've never ever finished anything!

[belidama]

@esme96ella i'm on the same boat! like she says in this video, you might as well try! if you only get to 20,000, then you'll still have written 20,000 words!!! if you didn't try, you wouldn't have any.. i'd say try it! :) i'm gonna be insane and going to try it too.. so if you want to be writing buddies, just let me know :)

[irisxcarina]

Hey, does anybody need a writing buddy for this year? :D

I'm fifteen and this is my first time.

[belidama]

@irisxcarina whooot! good luck :) and i'd love to be your writing buddy! i've done it two years but this year is gonna be insanely difficult for me with school work and such so i could really do with the support :) what dyou think? :D

[kiran2914]

@irisxcarina me!

[bellebeauty103]

Hey I'm fifteen years old, and this will be my first year attempting NANOWRIMO. I love to write, and this sounds like just what I need to keep me writing. I'm looking for a writing buddy, so if anyone wants to be writing buddies, HERE I AM!

[accidentallybreathle]

@bellebeauty103 i'm fifteen too, ahah and this is my first year. you wanna be writing buddies? :)

[rochellesheree89]

@bellebeauty103 i'm a little older but this is my first year hey.. i'm looking for writing buddies too :) we should be friends! hehe

[7bethg]

@bellebeauty103 I am fourteen and this is my first time to. A writing buddy would be awesome!

[BryDinoTastic]

Anyone wanna be my writing buddy? :D

[OllieTheCello]

Oh my Rowling. Here Comes My Baby was a YEAR ago? Oh goodness. It doesn't seem that long ago.

[redvinenerd]

I did NaNoWrimo for the first time last year and failed miserably. I got caught up with school and only did about 15,000. I'm doing it this year and I am going to win. :)

[unforgettable789]

@yoyayoya101 They won't know, of course, but that isn't the point. You're in this for you, not for the people behind NaNoWriMo. :)

[peculiarpixie]

I am trying NanoWroMo THIS year and just stumbled across your old video. :D

[KatyHallow]

I am doing NaNoWriMo but I'll certainly need some help getting the ropes and committing.

[jaffamorbid98]

@MsWaffleBunny Same, I'm only 13 and I've got exams in 2 weeks but I'm gonna attempt anyway :D

[Tamsin96]

@jaffamorbid98 I'm only 15, did you want a writing buddy? please :)

[iLIKEeats]

@Tamsin96 I'm 13. I'd be your buddy :)

[CameronMaude]

@iLIKEeats im 13 too :D wanna be buddies?

[iLIKEeats]

@CameronMaude Sure :D

[urusai2baka]

I'm going to do it this year. I have no idea what I'm going to do though. I'm working on a novel at the moment and I'm cringing about even thinking of taking a break for it, but I've been wanting to do NaNoWriMo ever since I heard about it in Decemeber last year. Too bad my only friend that likes writing as much as I do is moving next week to another state - anyone want to be my writing buddy? lol ;D

[keymoon124]

I'm so doing it this year!

[Belac889]

Im doing it for the first time! My location is an island and the story is kinda like Lost.

[Izzyspeltwithawhy]

@MsWaffleBunny

Same! First time- pretty nervous... x

[MsWaffleBunny]

I am doing Nanowrimo for the first time this year! Thank you Kristina for showing me what it is!

[giraffepaws3]

can't wait for Nanowrimo 2011!!!!

[kiran2914]

Im doing A-levels this year but I still dont care, I will do Nanowrimo this year.

[TroiaChan]

I did nanowrimo last year, and I'm doing it this year! I've had my plot ready since ... the end of november last year >_> hope I'll still finish it. The name's Edinie on the nano-page and Eilonwy on ywp :)

[GlassesAndScar]

I actually did NaNoWriMo in seventh grade for extrac credit. I still can't believe I made it. It is all kind of a blur. I just remember writing moderately for most of November. Maybe I had done a little more than half. Then the last two days I did not get any sleep. I finished!

[ThranduilWithATardis]

I'd do NaNo this year if I didn't have Exams during the month of November... :/ <_< I tried last year but got caught up in school stuff... <_<

[Izzyspeltwithawhy]

Cannot wait for NaNoWriMo! :D xxxxxx

[AlbinoLights]

is that the Charmander from the Wow Ruined My Life video? :D yay!

and I'm doing NaNoWriMo this year!
