8. NaNoWriMo 2008

[jennifercapo]

I'm in. First time and getting super excited. Whew! Love your vibe. I'll send you a friend request.

[TheGreyLadies]

I'm not actually doing it this year, because of crazy time commitments at college, however, I'll be happy to help you out if you get stuck!

[jennifercapo]

How many hours a day would you spend to get the 1500 - 2000 words? Just plotting out my time.

[jennifercapo]

Thanks. I guess I overlooked the 2008! I think the excitement is kicking in. Its the -not knowing- of the experience that has me nervous. Liked your videos. Liked your confidence about the process. Thanks. I might use that rope.

I failed miserably at NaNoWrimo... I won't tell you how far I got because you'd think me a loser . xD

[EmberOfTheMystics]

I'm glad so many of my friends are doing this with me-- I'm not alone when it comes to motivation! -cheers- From Smarties to Storm of Honor, Annoyed Fox to Wings, Blue Tiger to ynwa...My friends are awesome. -nods-

[iampoolsie]

and yes that is how germans pronounce it!

[iampoolsie]

SO I just started Nanowrimo today...4 dayslate...eeek. I had bever heard of it but i must agree - its basically the coolest thing ever!

[TheGreyLadies]

Like I said to Zimologist: Don't get discouraged! Get on the forums, find people to talk to you and help you through andything if you get stuck! I'll definitely be here if you need any advice, so just message away if you need to! ;D

[Zimologist]

I totally suck at this 'kinda have a plot' thing.

I think I'm gonna start again today.

[TheGreyLadies]

Just don't get discouraged!! If you ever need some help, feel free to message me! :)

[norbaclove]

I'm German and we pronounce it like that. :)

I'm doing NaNoWriMo this year and I'm really excited about it.

Good luck with writing in French! I could never do it in any other language apart from English. :D

[TheGreyLadies]

Thanks! I'm actually writing it in both French and English. Anything set in America will be in English, and anything set in France will be in French. :)

[norbaclove]

That's such a neat idea. :) And should be really interesting to read. I hope your writing is going as smooth as it should be. :D

[TheGreyLadies]

Haha, if this were a real novel, not very many people would be willing/able to read it, methinks. x3 I have over 3k as of right now! I don't know the exact amount, because I had to handwrite around 1k, and I have yet to type it up.

[norbaclove]

Well, I would read it. :D I have no problem with switching between languages. xD

I have like 11.000 words right now, which is extremly good for someone like me.

[TheGreyLadies]

Wow! O.O I could never do that in the first two days, to be honest. I have 4.5k right now, but that's just because I haven't typed up part of my handwritten stuff yet. x3

[norbaclove]

I wrote that much in the first two days, because I know I won't be able to write anything for the next two days. So I'm probably gonna be behind again on Wednesday. ~___~

[TheGreyLadies]

Ahh. That makes sense. I'm technically right on track, but I haven't actually written anything today, so I'm going to get on that before I go to sleep tonight. x3 Haha.

[JanksterProductions]

I just heard about it today, it sounds awesome.

Thats really cool that you're writing it in french!

Can i befriend you on there?

[TheGreyLadies]

Of course you can! I always welcome new friends. ;) If you ever need any help getting over writer's block, feel free to message me, and I'll help you out. :3

[JanksterProductions]

it won't let me add you :-(

weird.

I'll try again later

[TheGreyLadies]

Yes, it did! I got the message that you'd added me when I signed on. ;) I added you back.

[JanksterProductions]

haha, yeah i realized that my 1st attempt at a request was when I wasn't signed in... oops

[TheGreyLadies]

Haha, c'est bon, I do things like that ALL the time! x3

[Deanyd]

Best of luck, I explained Nano to one of my friends and her parents today as literary suicide, I think it's about the best description ever for it. French is surely going to make it a challenge, have you thought about flipping back and forth between french and english depending on the chapter/character/thoughts vs. spoken?

[TheGreyLadies]

I'm considering having everything set in the States in English, as well as whenever the main character (or anyone else) speaks in English.

[Saphiroko]

Wow! Good luck with doing in it French! How many countries have you been to?

[holyavis]

OHOH. I'm doing NaNoWriMo, btw.

And mah question is...

Are there as many billboards/advertisements in France as there are in the US? XD Lamelamelame on my part. I SUCK AT QUESTIONS.

[holyavis]

Ah, Anna! I luffle your shirt. And you, obviously. I need to think of a question. XD
