I have been a Member since.... Before I was born! ( I think every one was, they just forgot who they were when they were born :D) I'm glad to see more people here who share my standards :)
I am!!! I think this thread could be rather fabulous, if we could round up some other Latter Day Saints. And, you know, if anyone not of our faith wants to come on and ask us some questions, that would be cool too.
I'm LDS! How are you guys going to juggle NaNo and Seminary? This is my first year of Seminary, and juggling is gonna be tough... but I think I know how to.
Well, I have early-morning seminary, so I just make sure I don't stay up too late. --- Which, isn't hard, considering my parents have very specific rules about me writing. 1. Homework gets done first. :P 2. I have to go to bed ON TIME (9:00 PM) every school night. As long as I follow those rules, and whatever else they throw my way, I'm good. But I don't have that busy a schedule.
I'm really excited about NaNo this year. How do your young men/ young women groups feel about your nanoing? My YW think it's cool, but that I'm crazy for doing it. (It doesn't help that I'm homeschooled, too. XD)
What do you all think about writing an LDS novel, like Tennis Shoes among the Nephites?
Does Seminary take up more time than normal school? It was never much of an issue for me (I did occasionally write during Seminary... but I wrote during all my classes... and Sacrament meeting... man, I'm a terrible person :P)
I'm in Single's Ward (awesome!), and everyone seems to think NaNo's pretty cool. I think I may have talked a few of them into doing it with me ^_^ Last year, I was still in YW's, and they all thought I was crazy and laughed at me when I showed up to activities moaning about my word count.
I've thought about writing an LDS novel... but I've never really had an idea for one. I'm focusing right now on writing clean fantasy -- something I feel the world could use more of. I hope to some day write an LDS novel. My favorites that I've read are The Stray by Louise Larson Tolman, and Rules of Engagement by Stephanie Fowers.
My friends are kinda used to me writing, after the last two years, and they all have the same reaction- member or no- Ugh. Here comes another month where everything Alicia talks about has to do with Nanowrimo... :) But they love me.
I think that a bunch of people in my seminary class are just as excited as I am. And yes. They think I am crazy. I have never really thought of writing an LDS novel, but it could be fun. Supposing I could think of an idea...
I am!!!! I'm debating right now whether to go to a single's ward, or stay in my normal ward with my family. This is my first nano, and hopefully I will be able to have enough writing time!
Single's Ward is EPIC!!! I love it, a lot. Though I guess that depends on your ward. Mine's really awesome. I totally get wanting to stay in your home ward, but I would recommend checking out the Single's Ward. 'Cause it's awesome ^_^
Yeah I'm having a hard time deciding! I was recently called to be the 12-13 year old Sunday School teacher in my home ward, and I love it so much! Another reason I don't want to go to Single's ward is because my older brother is in that ward, and well, we don't really get along. I think I'll go to a couple of their activities before I make any real decision :)
Haha, I'm LDS! :D And to tell the truth, I've pressured half of the girls in my YW class to join in as well; it wasn't that hard, seeing as most of us were already writers to begin with! :P I didn't think we'd have our own thread already, though. Hahaha~
I'm LDS:) I have 5:45 a.m. seminary every morning. I'm a senior, and I've never missed a day of seminary ^^ Thanks for making this thread; what an amazing idea!
Hey guys! this is so cool, what a good idea! i wasn't really thinking about juggling all this with the early morning seminary, and since this is my first attempt at NaNoWriMo i am kind of freaking out. i can't wait to see what all of our stories turn out like!
I'm planning on writing double words on Saturday so I don't have to write on Sunday. Anyone else not writing on Sunday? I don't think there's anything wrong with writing on Sunday, and I do when it isn't NaNo, but I don't want to be stressing and writing like a crazy person on Sunday, since it's supposed to be a day of rest and everything. I think I wrote on Sunday last year, but this year I've decided to give myself a weekly break -- assuming I can do double-time on Saturday.
Any LDS teen writers out there?
Just wondering if there are any teen members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints participating in NaNo this year.
Re: Any LDS teen writers out there?
Yes! That's so cool you made this thread!!! :)

Re: Any LDS teen writers out there?
Good job never missing a Seminary class! I always failed at early morning... which made me sad, since Seminary was my favorite class.
