Hi, This is my first year doing NaNoWriMo. I am 16 and am REALLY excited. First thing I want to say is this. I am a conservative Christian. I am fine being writing buddies with someone who dosn't share all of my beliefs, although that would be nice. :) However, I do not want someone who uses bad language or blasphemy. I don't mean to sound rude; I just want to make that clear from the beginning. Also, I am only looking for girl buddies.
I am homeschooled and LOVE it. I DO NOT care for fantasy or magic. I love Southern Gospel music! I know, I'm weird. I love G. A. Henty novels. I don't watch a lot of TV. I watch some old shows though, like Andy Griffith, Dragnet, Dick Van Dyke, etc. My favorite subjects are science and math. My story this year is about the sanctity of life, dealing specifically with the tragedy of tubal pregnancys.
Cool! We're alike on alot of things! Wanna be buddies? (By the way, I think I've heard of you before. Do you have blogger or blogspot or Homeschoolblogger?)
This is my first year doing NaNoWriMo.
I'm 15 years old, and like Saved Girl, I am also a conservative Christian. I wish for a writing buddy who doesn't curse, and like Saved Girl, I am only looking for girl buddies.
-I am homeschooled and it is AWESOME! -I love to read. As long as it isn't vampires or witches or things like that. -I love Gospel, Country, and Hymn music! -My favorite subject is Science and Writing :)
Well hello there Saved Girl and Emma Mayfield! I'm going to try to get in on this little writing buddies group!
But first allow me to introduce myself: I'm Kate, I'm 16 (quite nearly 17, but not there just yet), I'm a home school kid too. Also I'm graciously saved by Jesus, though I'm not quite sure you could call me conservative (i'm Presbyterian and where I'm from we're affectionately called the "Frozen Chosen" so I guess I am, maybe). We all sound a lot alike, would it be cool if we were all buddies?
Could I be buddies with you? i need several, and I'm a conservative christian girl who's homeschooled! :) I'm writing sort of a a christian fantasy novel, and I need as much help as I can get!
Hi. I'm Patrick. I'm 16 and this is my first year on NaNoWriMo. I'm not entirely certain of what i'm going to write about. I enjoy making YouTube videos, performing and I'm a big fan of video games. Pokemon... I'm a Doctor Who and Harry Potter fan. I also really enjoy the Eragon books. So yeah. If anyone's interested in being a "writing buddy" then by all means. Talk to me!
OH MY GOSH!!! Harry Potter and Doctor Who? Eragon too? Same here!!
I'm 16 as well [my name is Joy] and this is my second year doing NaNoWriMo. I have to say that it is A TON of fun and totally worth all of the time that you put into it. I love writing, making videos [though I haven't made one in a while cause I've been busy], and reading on rainy days.
If you want to be writing buddies that would be so awesome.
[I'm kinda freaking out about the whole Harry Potter, Eragon, and Doctor Who thing because I haven't met anybody who likes all three as well] :)
Hey, if you're a fan of Doctor Who and Eragon....in one of the books, a 'Lonely God' is mentioned briefly and never talked about again. Later, the author explained, "My only excuse is...the Doctor does travel through different dimensions." (About that, my memory isn't perfect.) Yeah, I just feel like sharing that with everyone who likes both those things, since it's kind of amazing he managed to get something he's a huge fan of in a published book and everything. (If you don't believe me- which is reasonable- just check wikipedia. And yes, wikipedia is obviously the best source of information that's accurate and not at all a lie.)
I love all three of those things too!! haha Not wanting a writing buddie or anything, but: Harry Potter, Eragon and Doctor who are PROBABLY my three favourite things in life!!
I LOVE Harry Potter a ridiculous amount, Doctor Who is awesome and I really must read Eragon! I play the cello, guitar and piano, love writing songs, poetry, fiction, anything really! John Green is my favourite author and person haha!
Count me in too! I'm Maeve, I'm 17 and I'm going to try to juggle Stage Management, College Applications and a Novel... wish me luck? I've been on here for three years but never really TRIED at NaNo. Love Harry Potter, Doctor Who and sanity is for squares.
Ahh, this thread is currently so full of awesomeness that I don't know where to reply.
I'm also a fellow nerdfighter and love Harry Potter, Starkid, John Green and all things nerdy :) I would love to meet other nerdfighters my age (16) and become writing buddies! So yeah, add me as a Writing Buddy if anyone wants to, I'll be happy to accept :)
Count me in as well! I'm Nicole, I'm seventeem and I love Doctor Who, HArry Potter, and Eragon! I also play the piano and am juggling college applications while actually trying to get to 50000 words this year!
Please, me too. I'm Alayna, 16, first year of nanowrimo. Harry Potter, Doctor Who, John Green, people who will put stuff on their heads with me! This sounds amazing
French the Llama--so many Nerdfighters in one thread!! DFTBA :D
Can I be a part of this little writing group? I'm a newbie this year, although I just turned eighteen, and I would really like the support. I lovelovelove Harry Potter, Doctor Who--although I'm still only on the third season--John Green--obviously--Maureen Johnson, Sarah Dessen, e. Lockhart, Louise Rennison, polka-dots with stripes, glitter, and most genres of music. Especially wrock. The Remus Lupins are the best. :D
If anyone wants to be my writing buddy, just NaNoMail me. I think it would also be totally awesome to have a group "write-in" on Skype if anyone is interested. :)
Well, shizzle my frizzle, I forgot to put my freaking name. It's Shelby, if any potential buddies out there wanted to know. And if you want to get to know me more, click here please. Feel free to peruse any of the links to see if I'm too dull or too freaky for you.
Oh! And please only contact me through NaNoMail so I know who you are. Just so I don't freak out that a total stranger is stalking me on any of the websites listed. Also, I curse. A lot. Like a sailor if I'm so inclined, so if you're easily offended, you have been warned. :)
Harry Potter-yes ;D Doctor Who is just.. genuis.. Wanna teach me how to play the guitar?! I fail so much >< You're crazy and you like John Green?! I'm becoming very glad I decided to do nanowrimo! Please can we be writing buddies?! :O
POKEMON HARRY POTTER AND ERAGON ALL AT ONCE OH MY GOD
I'm 16 too and my name is Dayna. This is my third nano and this will be my seventh novel (I've also written four screenplays). I'm a Junior in high school and I go to an all girls boarding/day school in Virginia. I've loved pokemon ever since preschool, and have every pokemon game since gameboy color (and some of those as well). It's borderline obsessive, I know.

Yesssss! I'm Paige and this is my third year on here, but first year really seriously trying. And I love Doctor Who and Harry Potter. I'd love to be writing buddies!
Harry Potter and Doctor Who are two of my absolute FAVOURITE things.
I'm 13, my name is Rachel, and I can typically be seen with anywhere from two to twelve novels in my arms at any given time. I'm a major Pokemon fan (My Magical Hat of Writing is Pikachu!), I know how to play with your mind in ways you may never understand (I'm reading two Psychology books), I have a very extensive list of fandoms, and any time I'm not doing something, I've got a computer in front of me, a book in my hands, and a notebook to my right. I'm a bit of a grammar nazi, but it even annoys me, so I try to ignore that habit. This is my first year WriMo-ing, but I have a plan and I think I'll do well. I am a Nerdfighter as well. I have yet to read Eragon, but now I really really want to. Chameleon Circuit is my favourite band, hands-down (I am DEFINITELY of the Trockhead generation xD), Turn Left is pretty cool, and my three best friends and I want to start a Doctor Who/Harry Potter band. I'm a fan of Glee, House, Criminal Minds, AVPM/S, Slashnovels (homosexual romance novels- don't ask if you don't understand it), Torchwood, and so many other things I can't even list them all. Some of my favourite bands are Chameleon Circuit, Turn Left, the Remus Lupins, Tonks and the Aurors, Harry and the Potters, ALL CAPS, WinterSpringPro (Slytherin Night, mostly), and so manyother Wrock bands that I have 33 tabs of Wrock bookmarked on my laptop, and that's just the ones I listen to often. Well, I think that's a long enough rant for now. Buddy me if you want xD
P.S, I'd like to acknowledge, there are 42 people/comments here before me.
Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Criminal Minds, psychology, AVPM/S, Torchwood, House and slash? Just add Sherlock, Eragon and The Hunger Games and you would be a goddess. I love you. I think I may buddy you. Okay? Good. :P
oh wow! you're one of the few awesome people who loves Doctor Who AND Eragon (at least that I know of)!!! My friends just showed me the awesomeness of Doctor Who about three months ago and I'm hooked! But Eragon, that's something that helps honestly inspire me. I'm 15 so a young author makes me optimistic.
By the way, I wouldn't get me started on Harry Potter, most people get lost after a minute or two when i start calling them idiotic muggles.
Oh Gosh! Harry Potter and Eragon? Same here! They're both amazing.
I'm 15 and my name is Sierra. This is my first year of NaNoWriMo and I'm really excited. I get along with basically everyone. I will say however, that I'm a Harry Potter addict so if you are too then you should add me. I also like Twilight, but its not near as good as Harry Potter or Eragon. Hum. I can't really think of anything else to say... :O (Yes, be ye warned, I love to talk. )
Hey Patrick! My name is Rachel and this is my second Nano year. I am also a big fan of doctor who (have you heard of trock? I've covered a trock song on youtube) and harry potter I would love to be a 'writing buddy' of yours :)
Hey! I am 16 years old and this is my first year doing NaNoWriMo! I am super excited and super nervous and I would love to have a writing buddy! Some things I love are Harry Potter, Team Starkid, Glee, just starting to get into Doctor Who, How I met Your Mother, The Big Bang Theory, Modern Family, Shakespeare, reading, acting, dancing, writing (duh!) and much more. I am homeschooled but not for religious reasons (I am not religious at all!). I am looking for a buddy around my age, someone who likes the same things as me, and i don't care about gender or how many years you have done NaNoWriMo!
Hi, I'm Esmé, I'm 15 and this is my first year too. I was home schooled until i was 12, though I'm not religious in any way and I basically love everything you just said :) so yeah, I'm looking for buddies so message me if you want to!
Hey, I'm Sydney and 16 years old. This is my first year as well...I just decided a couple days ago I was going to try it out so we'll see how it goes. Anyway, I would love to be writing buddies with yous. :) I have to admit, Harry Potter, The Big Bang Theory AND How I Met Your Mother, are simply amazing :) . I can't wait to get started on the book!!

I'm Bekah, and I commented/replied/posted a little up there somewhere. This is the best thread/forum/whatchamacallit evar. I'm 13-almost-14, I love Doctor Who, Eragon, Harry Potter, Big Bang Theory, Doctor Horrible, Glee, A Very Potter Musical/Sequel. I don't care about religions or gender or age if that matters to anybody.
Hi, I'm Lauren, I'm 16 too and it's my first year here as well :) We love almost identical things. I love Harry Potter, Glee, Doctor Who, How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory and Shakespeare (Macbeth is by far my favourite). I read, write and dance as well, and I've tried my hand at acting but the memorising of lines puts me off, so I've been writing them for my drama group instead. I've never met someone who's homeschooled, what's it like? I'd be happy to be a writing buddy for you if you'd like :)
Hi! I'm Austin, this is my second year doing NaNoWriMo and I like you :D I'm a nerdfighter, I love music (my profile has a lot of bands I listen to), and I go on Tumblr too much. So yeah, I'd love to be writing buddies with anyone, get to know each other, and keep each other going through November. Good luck to you all, regardless. c:
WOOOOOH Nerdfighter! So, ermm....Hi, my name's Ambereen and this is my first year doing NaNo. I'm also a nerdfighter, and I obsessively watch Doctor Who, Sherlock, Merlin and Harry Potter. My story's gonna be fantasy, though I have no real plot line yet. :P
Um hi everyone! This is the most liked I've ever been for my nerdiness! haha I would LOVE to be writing buddies with all of you I really would! Can we send joint messages on here between all of us, that would be ace! DFTBA
So many nerdfighters!! Is it possible to create some kind of group? A Nerdfighteria group? That would be soo amazing! Otherwise I'd just like to have some nerdfighter writing buddies!
Ah! fellow Merlin-watcher! And doctor who fan, and writer, and harry potter, and Nerdfighter, and... Um...Let's see: if you like all of those, maybe you'd like Avatar the Last Airbender? (TV series, not the movie.) I don't know, I feel like this comment should do something slightly useful, so there's a show you might like.
DFTBA :) Oh, and yes, Panic at the Disco! is brilliant. You know the current singer is only the singer because the previous lead was sick and he filled in, and people liked his voice better so he just...stuck with it? I don't know, I thought that was interesting. I feel like these comments should actually tell people something, so even if they don't become a writing buddy, they still get something out of it. Useless information, that is.
Another nerdfighter here =D I'm Lily and I'm 19, I LOVE harry potter and House, I've only ever gotten around to seeing season 1 of doctor who, which was awesome. I joined nanowrimo like three years ago, but this is the first I'm actually going to try and reach 50k, so I'd love to have some writing buddies xD
Hey there:) My name is Summer-Jade, though I more often than not go by the name of Ginger, due to my ever so interesting hair colour. This is my first year taking part in NaNoWriMo. I'm from Mansfield Nottinghamshire, which is located in England, but I've wanted to live in California for the past five years of my life. I plan on attending Berkeley University. I know it will take effort but I have a very determined nature. I am a christian but I accept all religious beliefs. These are a few of my favourite things; - My Chemical Romance and Taylor Swift - Harry Potter -Tumblr - Beautiful dresses -Lip Piercings -Acoustic covers of songs - Kissing in the rain. - The smell of a new book:) Please be my friend?
Hi. You can call me Dyute. I really love writing. I'm 14 and would really want a buddy that'll listen to me and help me, and I'll help them back! I'm really a fan of the Tamora Pierce books, and manga, and anything fun. I really love fanfiction. I like Harry Potter, Eragon, and Eon, Skinned, and a whole bunch of other stuff.
I feel like I'm blabbing.... I play violin in my school orchestra... I hope to write 50,000 words... I'm a teenager... I love people... I hate annoying people... I like pretty stuff... Oh, and I'm a really bad artist. I cannot draw. It just doesn't work out.
So would anyone want to be my writing buddy? I hope to make great friends!!!
Hey! I'm 14 too, and I used to read Tamora Pierce books a lot. :) All of the Tortal series and Circle of Magic books. I also like to read manga (but no anime, XP). I play flute in concert band at school, and I used to play piano until this school year. I can't draw either... my little brother is a better artist than me. *sigh* I'll be your writing buddy! If it helps, try to get some people from school to write too :D
Did I mention this is my first year so my goal is, um, 25,000 words? :P
Hey all! I'm Jasmine, and I'm an 18-year-old freshman at Marquette University. I'm a political science and writing-intensive English double major, and I've declared pre-law. I am a huge fanatic of Doctor Who, and I love Harry Potter as well! I maintain two blogs on tumblr, and this is the first year I'll be attempting NaNoWriMO (even though I've had an account on this site for almost three years now). I'm into most any kind of music (except country), and I'm especially into Florence + The Machine and similar artists; my ultimate favorite bands are The Beatles and OK Go. Feel free to talk me! I'm up for meeting new people! :)
Hi :) im 16 and this is my first year doing NaNoWriMo, I AM SOOOOOO EXCITED! Well, i LOVE harry potter, the hunger games, and others :D i'm a nerd-fighter. french the llama!!, add me as a writting buddy <3

Hi. I'm a 16-year-old New Englander who loves show choir, acting, singing, and country music. Fan of Starkid, Harry Potter, How I Met Your Mother, Doctor Who, Glee, and Big Bang Theory. It's my first year, but I'm looking for buddy(ies) who will challenge me to word wars and get me working, even when I'm procrastinating. And when need be, someone to vent to. Thanks :)
Hullo. You can call me Gwendolyn I'm 14 years old and this is my second year doing NaNo and I'm uber excited! If you love dancing, ballet, Harry Potter(or Severus Snape), Rick Riordan, Cinda Williams Chima, soccer, reading, writing, laughing or eating chocolate you should seriously consider friending me or just checking out my profile. Oh, and if you watch Once Upon A Time ;) you know what to do:)
Okay, so uh, Hi! Basic stats: 17, Female, Live in Indiana with my roommate and a cat named Neko. I have Fibromyalgia - so my life is pretty much being sick and trying to complete HS via correspondence. I spend a lot of time reading.
Writing and I have a bit of a history. I wanted to be an author from the age of 11, but we grew apart around 14-15. But I found myself sick last year and reconsidered.
Books: Shiver trilogy, the Gemma Doyle Trilogy, Wake trilogy, Blue Is For Nightmares series, HP, Stuff I can't remember (brain fog!)
TV shows: The Office, House, HIMYM.
I swear, I laugh, I joke and use sarcasm, and I have no idea what a nanobuddy does, but here's hoping I find out!
Here's a little bit about me: *I'm a percussionist and a total band geek. I love almost anything concert or marching band. My favorite percussion instrument is the marimba, playing it with four mallets is particularly fun. *I'm an animation geek. I know tons of pointless animation trivia, and watch what is probably too many cartoons for someone my age. *I'm sixteen years old. I have a car named Mandy. *I like many genres of fiction. I'm pretty open to anything, though horror keeps me awake at night, so I try to avoid that. :P *I love musicals. Wicked is probably my favorite. I also like Phantom, Hello Dolly, A Chorus Line, and more that I'm too lazy to mention. *I also love orchestral/band music. My favorite composers as of late are Hazo and Whitacre, and the radio in my car is always turned to the classical station. *This is my fifth year doing NaNo, and hopefully my fourth year winning. *I'm a brony. (I don't use the term pegasister, because I'm a unicorn. -:P) *I like baking. *I identify as a Christian, and have what is probably considered a liberal theology.
So that's more than you probably ever wanted to know about me.
Hi. This is my Second year doing NaNo! I am 16. I am need of a writing buddie. I am really strong in my Morals. I can be Mean at times. I swear on Occasion. I am a sophmore in High School, miss being homeschooled. I usually get along better with the guys in my life then the girls...
I Am a Sophmore. I am a Nerdfighter! ^_^ I Love preety much all music beside Rap. I love to read; just wish I had more time. I love english hate math and science. I don't watch much TV... I am an Anime/Manga Nerd.
Hi, Suna here. This is my first year doing Nano and so I'm really excited about it. I'm 17 and love YAs specially fantasy/paranormal stuff involved. I'm a rock/metal fan (except for real screamo) and love Percy Jackson :D If anyone interested in being buddies by all means talk to me!!
Heya, I'm Chococat. :D I'm 14. This is my first year doing NaNoWriMo, but my older sister has done it before. I'm on Eastern Standard Time (I think) and I'm looking to make some new friends. :) I'm a non-denominational Christian, and I went to public school all the way up to this year. I'm now at a private school, but the tuition is supah expensive and all that stuff about being cheap asians and stuff so I'll be back in public school next year. I play flute, I like to read, and I could be classified as a nerd, I guess, except I've never gotten around to reading Harry Potter of LOTR and I don't play/watch Pokemon/Anime or anything. I really like reading, reading manga, playing random computer games, and talking to friends. :P I speak American English (lol) and I'm learning Spanish at school (I'm in Spanish 2 right now) and Chinese at church (2nd grade). I'm using a school-issued MacBook to write my story because I can't really fathom typing on an iPod touch (gahhh so difficult >__<) but I have nothing against PCs... I run track, but I mostly do it for fun because I'm super slow and eat lots of unhealthy food :D but I'm not fat. I'm not skinny, I'm not fat, I'm just average. I'm also pretty short, meaning not super short but shorter than a lot of people. I'm asian, but it doesn't really mean much since I was born in Texas. I suppose there's more, but if you've read through this whole thing without skimming I'll be amazed and I'd love to be your writing buddy :)
My name is Sue. I am 16 years old and home schooled. This is my first year as a home school kid and that is why I am doing NaNo. With school and life I never found myself to have time to do this. Although this year that all changes! Now I guess is the part I tell you a little bit of important stuff about me.
-I love reading! I do not like vampire/angel stories. I do like dystopian novels, did I say like? I really meant obsessed… -my favorite book is the Iron Knight by Julie Kagawa; I like all her books in that series as well. -as of July of this year I am a Harry Potter addict, yeah! -laughing is my hobby, as is knitting, writing, and reading. -my story is about a girl that loses her sister due to suicide and that girl finds theirs more to her sister then anyone ever knew. (Yes, I am surprised I am not writing a dystopian novel. I do think about changing my story every other hour though.) -if you’re like me, or if your not like me at all, then lets be writing buddies! And let’s share our crazy, fanatical, month of November together!
hey this is my first year. I am 17, 18 in March. I love writing, even if i cant spell that well. I want all buddies. Im new on this site so add me please. LOL I love watching tv, my favorite shows are girlmore girls and glee. I love writing, i even get in trouble at school for it. I love all types of books.
- I'm extremely outgoing and I love to write. I've always wanted a writing buddy. This is my first year, though I signed up a while ago but I was sick and couldn't continue. I love making people laugh. So of course my stories usually involve humor and of course romance. I LOVE romance. But anyway, add me if you're interested =)

Just decided to put myself out there. I'm Samurai, 13, a homeschooler, and a YWPer. Probably more than a few of you know the site. This is my first year doing the 'adult NaNo' and I'm really excited! I write and read Fantasy mostly. Anyway, thanks! This is pretty brief, I know. But can you really share all of your personality and everything in one post?
Looking for a writing buddy :) Hence me posting in this fine thread.
Some things about me:
I'm 16 (17 on the 15th Nov.) I love reading especially the Sharpe Series & all books by Patrick Robinson. I love watching some stuff on TV such as the televised version of Sharpe, Scrubs, All CSIs, NCIS, Friends (Duh.), the A-Team ( I love it when a plan comes together) and so on and so on... I currently study Maths, Physics & Psychology at AS at Sixth Form. Looks: Short with very short brown hair. Fairly stocky build. I go to Army Cadets. 'gotta love it! I'm fascinated by the Napoleonic Wars.
Like whatcha hear? Message me! I'd prefer someone in the same timezone as me so that I can talk to them at reasonable times.
The name's Rachel, I'm fourteen years old as of this year although I'm rather mature online. That being said, I still love to have a good laugh and enjoy myself. I don't really have the attention spans for most movies, but do enjoy TV shows such as House, The Secret Circle, Supernatural and Futurama.. I currently study French, Latin and Italian (although that's outside of school) as well as all the core subjects since I'm only year nine, but I hope to study a reasonably high level of math as well as literature and the sciences such as physics, chemistry and biology.
I'm looking for a writing buddy who preferably lives in Australia and has MSN or some form of instant messaging (facebook?) to keep in contact. I'm also happy to talk about other things other than writing, basically whatever tickles your fancy. So if that sounds like you, send me a message! :)
I already posted my rant (see above halfaya's comment), but I just wanted to say, I've had 5 years of French, and I also know Pig Latin, (some) Spanish, and (some) German. I know a teensy bit of italian, as well.
I'm Sunny. I'm fourteen and I live in Toronto, Canada. My favourite movies are How to Train Your Dragon and the Lion King, and my favourite TV shows are the Mentalist, Buffy, Firefly, Doctor Who, and the Good Wife. I love photography, platypuses, and creepy things.
I have no preference for time zone (though I live in EST), so send me a message :)
Okay, BlueNinja, I swear we're the same person in two different locations.
I'm 14, I reserve the theater room in my apartment building SOLELY for Doctor Who every Saturday (well, when it's actually on...*sob*) and I've seen every episode of Firefly at least twice.
The only thing is that I haven't been able to study Japanese as much since I moved.
I live in Seattle, WA, but I want to move to Canada because it's awesome. I'm also in PST.
The name is Cassy, I live near Mason City, Iowa where I attend college, I'm a freshman this year. I don't watch much for TV but I do enjoy teen mom and the secret life of the american teenager. I like shows like that because I'm a teen mom, I'm 17 with a 15 month old daughter Nevaeh. I hope I can teach her to love writing as much as I do. I love reading, love love love it!! Mostly YA, contemporary, dystopian, and fantasy.
I'm a peculiar little organism with a strange obsession with the two-dimensional. I am a 「fudanshi」, to put it bluntly. If you think I am strange because of this, please feel free to go get lost.
As my username suggests, I find beauty in horror and the macarabe. Another quirk of mine.
I keep to myself for the most part, and have a rather brutal personality, but if you find me interesting, I challenge you to get to know me.
My writing this year is yaoi fanworks of the anime Yuugioh.
Fujoshi girl here. I'm not sure if you'd want me as a writing buddy, as my book will be somewhat post-apocalyptic and completely different to yours, but still. Be friends?
I'm trying hard to stay away from LittleKuriboh's parody, even though I might end up calling Malik's dark half Melvin, since I can't think of a normal sounding name to call him. I love Abridged, but sometimes it overtakes canon a bit too much for me~
I'm Aaron, currently studying computer science at Brown University with fiction and Japanese on the side. I'm into game design, music hoarding, visual novels, interactive fiction, FIRST robotics, and a bunch of other stuff.
I usually enjoy pestering my writing buddies, so if you've got AIM/MSN/Skype or something, that'd be neat. I'm currently trying to sort out ideas for this year's NaNo and it'd be fun to have someone to bounce ideas with. I'm also probably a better editor than writer and I'm happy to help review stuff.
Well, anyway, if any of that sounds interesting, feel free to send nanomail or add me. Or, I'm psywombats on AIM and can be contacted there.
I'd love to help- it's always interesting to hear other people's ideas. I don't have AIM/MSN/Skype, but I'd love to help you figure out what idea to use for your NaNo.
Hearing people figure out what they want for a story is pretty amazing- I've never seen the same style used by two different people.
hello there ~ i'm miia, a 16-years-old girl, and i'm a student of accounting and european history :> trigonometry is my favourite type of math, and balkan/southern european history is my favourite type of history. outside of school, i study languages (i'm currently studying six ... free time, what is that) and semi-obsessively follow korean entertainment and k-pop. yes, i am one of those people lmao. anyway, i'd love a writing buddy just to hang out with and bounce ideas off of during nanowrimo. i'm available on nanomail, AIM, and tumblr, so if i haven't scared you off with my boringness, feel free to nanomail me :> i'd love to talk. ♥
I'm 17 and currently typing this during Bio class. I recently decided that I had to give up reading fanfiction for awhile to catch up on my growing pile of books I own that I haven't read yet. I watch many TV shows including: Bones, Castle, How I Met Your Mother, Modern Family, Glee, Merlin, Doctor Who, New Girl, My Little Pony, Buffy, Firefly and so many others.
This is my third year doing NaNo and I could use some friends to help me through. I'm on here, fanfiction, skype, msn, tumblr, twitter and a few other things.
So if you managed to read all of that and are still interested send me a message. Chat's with strangers are always the most interesting.
Doctor Who. I'm a cousin fan (I watch Torchwood), but Doctor Who. My next fandom to attack and fall in love with. But gah... Glee, New Girl? Former fanfiction reader?
I'm Ily, 17, too close to 18. I live Glee, Doctor Who, Downton Abbey, Supernatural, among other things. Those are the major ones I flail about. I'm a total history and fitness nerd so. Yeah.
This is my third year doing NaNo, and the only year I actually, really, have time for because I've just left school. It's nice to have someone to bitch and cheer with. I have msn/aim/tumblr/twitter and here, normally.
I'm Heather, and I'll be seventeen in December. I love Glee, and I just started watching supernatural. And I love history and English. To the point of obsession. This is my second year doing NaNo, and I'd love to be writing buddies! Haha, I have msn, too.
Hm, I'm Ashley. 15 this year, from Singapore. My main hobby are rather… obvious, though there are others.
\o/ fudanshi~
Ahem. Um, I love Leverage, among other shows. Well, to be fair, I don't watch that much TV. I spend most of my time on my laptop, and messing around on IRC and FB, and Twitter. And, well, I'm bilingual, since I study English and Chinese. And since, y'know, kanji is somewhat close to Chinese~
I'm going to do this in the form of a list, because that's probably easier.
-My name is Max. -I am 19. -Currently, I am in my first year at university. I'm doing maths. -My obsessions are mainly with anime, role playing games, sci-fi and fantasy in any form, and probably some other things. -This is going to be my third Nano. So far, I have a 100% win rate. Hopefully I can manage this even with uni work and this strange thing known as a "social life" I seem to have picked up here. -I'm a sceptic and a humanist. -I am English. -After deciding that I want to get fit whilst at uni, I signed up for Tae Kwon Do, fencing and Capoeria classes, each once a week. So far, I have been to each one once. Time will tell if I manage to keep up with any of them. -I am a Nerdfighter. -Also, a Whovian. -And a Browncoat. -For this year's Nano, I am writing something that I have been planning/worldbuilding for about 2 years.The reason it took me so long to get round to is that it will be (mainly) set at my uni. As this is my first year, had I written it sooner, it would have had no setting. This would have made things somewhat difficult. -Anyway, it is a modern fantasy, mostly concerned with fairly normal things. The whole leaving home for the first time and growing up thing, but with magic and stuff.
There are quite a few things on that list. Anyway, if you want to talk about ideas, writing, or just anything, send me a Nanomail. I'll try to reply as quickly as I can. If you're going to add me as a Writing Buddy, I'd prefer it if you'd send me a message, too. That's just being polite, really. Anyway, (I've used that word three times now. Huh) I like talking to people on here, so send me a message if you're interested.
I'm just going to say right now, lemming_the_lemming, that you sound exactly like a person made of awesome should. DFTBA, my friend.
About me: -My name is Maria -I am 19 -This is my second year as the Municipal Liaison for the Lethbridge, Alberta region -I am a second-year undergraduate at university, studying Music Education on French horn with a side of piano, voice, composition, and mathematics education. -This is my fourth year doing NaNo, and hopefully my fourth win. -I have developed acute tendinitis-verging-on-carpal-tunnel in both wrists, which may hinder the above point. -I love music, anime, woodworking, the Japanese language and culture, procrastination, fanfiction by the boatload, wandering the internet, reading young adult fiction and adult fantasy, Red Vines, and all manner of other things that don't happen to cross my mind at the moment. -I enjoy long walks between classes (not really), dinner by the light of my dorm room kitchen's three burnt-out bulbs (as long as the food's good), and watching sunsets from my bedroom window (when I'm done holing myself in the basement music corridor from 9-7). -I am a Nerdfighter. -And a Starkid (who will always prefer Joey Richter over Darren Criss) -And a band geek. -And a Potterhead -And one of those people who you look at and ask, "Why in all hell does she involve herself in so many things at once and suffer potential mental breakdowns due to stress?" -I hate racists, onions, 4Kids dubs, hypocrites, and bad music -This year, my novelling project is a continuation of a Fullmetal Alchemist/CSI: Las Vegas crossover fanfiction that I have been writing for just over four years now. I've finally decided enough is enough and I will actually finish it without letting procrastination overwhelm me!
Thank you! Same to yourself. I have to say, I love the idea of a CSI/FMA crossover. So many possibilities. I've only seen the odd episode of CSI (it's what my mum watches when there's nothing else on), but I'd really like to know what would happen is Grissom met Mustang. Also, agreed on onions. Racists, bad music and 4Kids are just givens, frankly.
My fic focuses primarily on Ed and Al, and their interactions with the CSI cast. I must say, I'm having a ton of fun with Ed and Grissom, as well as Ed and Catherine, conversations. The dynamics are just so interesting to write!
Mushrooms are pretty disgusting, as well. Though I tend to lean toward onion hatred more readily. And 4Kids really should just not exist. My roommate likes to show me what they did to the first seasons of One Piece, and it makes me want to cry from the travesty.
I'm Johnathan with an 'H'. 17. Senior. Home schooled. I don't watch a lot of TV on the actual TV..mostly on the internet..aka Hulu.
I'm a big fan of Glee {even though their inconsistency with plots makes me mad}, I love New Girl-Zooey Deschanel is brilliant. Wednesday nights on ABC are pretty much the best, I mean The Middle AND Modern Family?! Best. Ever.
kdjkajflkadjlkj. As I was typing this a freaking HUGE KILLER ANT crawled onto my screen i squished it with my fingers and moved on with life.
I enjoy listening to music: Matt Nathanson, Mumford and Sons, Jason Castor, ADELE, Train, Fee, Maroon 5 and so many others.
If you're liking what you're reading you should send me some nano mail and we can start chatting or you can reply to this post!
Though, technically, I've graduated. ;) Hello there! I'm Katherine (or Squiddish), I'm 18, a homeschool graduate, and generally just an ordinary individual. (Ordinary? Nothing ordinary about me!)
I love Glee, although I hate Rachel, New Girl is amazing, and Parenthood are what get me through my TV-ness, for the most part. Though I've watched copious amounts of TV and movie... just so happens that I no longer have the time for it.
Killer ants have been out to get me since that sidewalk incident two weeks ago. I think they're recording my room... there are cameras everywhere. They're watching you. They're watching me. They are everywhere.
As well, music is amazing.. though, honestly, from your list I can only officially say that I know and like Maroon 5. Mostly because Katherine tends to stick closely to her Country music. (Or Spanish, despite not speaking a lick of it)
I'd love to be buddies. If you don't mind someone nagging you for word wars or occasionally checking in to see how the wordcount's coming. ;)
Ummmmmm, hayyyyloo there! :D Interwebz tv is the very best, I agree. Who wants to actually watch TV on the network's time? Puh-lease. And Zooey is a beast <3
Also, I LOVELOVELOVE your taste in music *nodnod*
I've been homeschooled off and on my entire life (I'm 16/junior)
I laughed about the huge killer ant that walked by you while you were typing... Can we please be buddies?? I like Adele too... Although I have to say I like Sky Sailing better. I play flute and fife, which takes up a lot of time. I also think people with weird name spellings are cool. I'm 15 (and a half, haha). A snowstorm just practically destroyed my town and we have had 6 snow days so far. Anything else, just ask. :D Thanks!!
Hey everyone! I'm new to the whole NaNoWriMo party, but I've been working on an idea that sparked to life in my head for ages, to the extent that the characters have become alter egos of mine, which is a little sad.
Anywho, I'd love to have a writing buddy who I can bounce ideas off of, and get critiques and opinions and such. I'm an avid fantasy fan, and my other interests include illustrating and anime!
If anyone's interested, I'm in GMT in England and will proably only contact throgh nanomial, but I'm online almost every evening.
I'm Shan, 15 and in year 11. This will be my third year doing NaNo, I also did CampNaNo back in August. My idea for this year has been bouncing around my mind now although I don't actually have a plot, so it'd be cool to have someone to bounce ideas around with. I'm completely obsessed with Harry Potter, along with acting, reading and of course writing (especially fanfiction). So yeah, if anyone is interested in being writing buddies, that's cool, I'm usually on here in the evenings as well as on MSN and Tumblr.
wait wait your in year 11? and your 15? im 15 and about to finish year ten, but how are you in the year above me? oh and hey, sorry if this seems a little rude, but im just curious
-I'm crimsonstarlight. -I'm 13. -This is my first year doing NaNoWriMo. I will hopefully not fail miserably. :) -I'm a girl. (Should be pretty obvious, but everyone kept thinking I was a guy on another forum, where I had the name shadowtide… sooo… :p) -I'm Catholic. -I just lost THE GAME. -I love reading. Especially science fiction, paranormal, fantasy, realistic fiction… um… most things. But there are some books I really, really don't like. Yeah. -I love writing. (Obviously…) But I'm horrible about procrastinating… -I'm absolutely obsessed with The Lord of the Rings. FARAMIR IS AWESOME!!!!! AND ÉOWYN!!!!!!!! AND ARAGORN!!!!!!!!! AND FIGWIT!!!!!!!!!! AND PIPPIN!!!!!!!!!! AND MERRY!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND FRODO!!!!!!!! AND EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!! LIKE SAURON!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND SMÉAGOL IS SO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!! -Everything about LOTR world is so awesome. The languages, the history… Everything. And J. R. R. Tolkien had a really fascinating life, too. -I'm also absolutely obsessed with Doctor Who. Though to a slightly lesser degree. -The Ood are really cute. -Gallifrey is awesome. -Maybe even as awesome as Adipose 3. -Amy really, really annoys me. -I LOVE DAVID TENNANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -I love psychology. It's fascinating. -And genetics. It's amazing. -And linguistics. It's awesome. -And French. It's absolutely epic. -I have a younger sister and a younger brother. -I am a Dalek-Time Lord Meta-Crisis. -Sometimes I'm extremely antisocial. -Sometimes I'm not. -I like arguing. About important things. -And about completely and utterly pointless topics. Whether they make sense or not. -I have a tendency to take everything seriously… Even when I'm laughing about it. -I over-analyze. -It is my mission in life to be as evilly annoying to as many people as humanely possible.
AHHHH!!! How dare you!!! You just made me loose the GAME!!! And I haven't lost in a month!!!!!!! Ahhhhh!!!! So you're horrible at procrastinating? Does that mean you're bad at it? Does that mean you don't know how to procrastinate? Does that mean you need help???
OMG, I've been reading this WHOLE THREAD looking for an LOTR fan! Please be my buddy?
Hm, I guess I'm getting ahead of myself...
I'm 18, freshie in college, LOVE LOTR, Eragon, Narnia, The Hunger Games, The Deed of Paksenarrion, and just epicness in general. I also like The Giver and "softer" stuff like that. And pirates, ninjas, and Jedi(s?). And Han Solo, who deserves a category all his own. :)
So if there's someone out there who isn't totally repelled by the description above, add me!
Also, there's a twitter thing some people are trying to get going. use the hashtag #NaNoDailyWC to post your progress! If you wanna add me on twitter, I'm @slightlyclueles. Just say you're from NaNo and I'll add you too!
Grr. I haven't lost the game since monday. i yelled 'i lost the game' in the middle of class, and I bet the entire school could hear the class shouting I LOST THE GAME. Anyway, i would love to be your writing buddie!
I'm Raven, 17. I technically live in Illinois, but my home is in South Dakota. I'm proudly engaged after being with him for almost all our lives.
This is my second year of NaNo and I'm writing a Sci-Fi Dystopian novel. I would like a writing buddy writing something similar =) Last year I started off with a novel about a teen who was raped and got pregnant in her early teens, and was cast out by her mother. Fell in love. And then died. Which was a fictionalized version of the story of a girl I knew. But I didn't get far with that and ended up writing a collection of short stories. This year I'm using an idea I've been passionate about ever since I read Divergent by Veronica Roth for summer reading for school.
So if you're interested and also writing a post-apocalyptic (not involving zombies!) or a dystopian, NaNoMail me =)
Love to be a buddy! Victoria, 16, Small-Town-Middle-of-Nowhere USA. I'm sorta writing a dystopia, but more fantasy than scifi. I just read Divergent about two weeks, LOVED IT!!
Sry, guess I should give a few more details, and no edit button...
Love -The Mentalist -Castle -Solitaire -Divergent (Yahhh!)
Fav book...well, I can't pick the book, but love the Wheel of TIme series (Robert Jordan, just FYI). I live in mountain time zone, USA, but I check my email all the time, and am on the web most nights (7-9), also Sunday afternoons.
- Appingo, can go by Ash if that's your thing. Female. 18, USA, asexual-biromantic, Mountain Timezone which is -7MST. - That said, my sleeping schedule is better suited to an Asian timezone. My best friend lives in Korea, and I'm not in school at the moment, so my sleeping schedule shifted more to her timezone by accident. Oops. I'm up in the afternoon and all hours of the night, so for those of you in school, it shouldn't be a big deal. And I'll be a wonderful buddy if you stay up late at night sometimes. :D - I start school in January with a major in Linguistics. I speak Japanese semi-decently after living there for two years and then taking the language at a high school level for four years. - My major fandoms are Harry Potter, Hetalia, Homestuck and Umineko no Naku Koro Ni along with various JRPGs. Yes, in case you couldn't tell, I'm a bit of a fan of anime. If you're not either, though, that's okay. : ) I love getting to know new people, and we can bond through writing! - Need said, I'd just love to meet someone to bounce ideas off of, discuss our NaNos, encourage each other through November, etc. I'm not aiming for 50k this year, I'm aiming for complete on a first draft of a project that's been around since middle school. I never felt confident writing it during past NaNos because of stuff going on, but since I don't have school now, it's kind of a 'now or never' situation for me. - I have MSN and Skype, and usually pretty much always on both. - I also have no life and will check my Nanomail during all waking hours, so don't be afraid to send me a message saying hello! : )
Heya :) my name's Toni and I live in Australia if that's close enough to the Asian time-line for you. I turned 18 at the beginning of the year and am in my first year of Uni, studying Creative Arts. I'm a huge fan of anime also, and learned Japanese in school. I don't spend much time watching TV, but I love Merlin and am watching X factor (aussie form of American idol, if there isn't X factor there...) right now. I usually buy anime and manga from the shops. im also on MSN and Skype, but I'm usually on MSN more than anything.
anyways, if you're interested in being writing buddies, send me a nanomail :)
Hi everyone! *nervous wave* I'm Tesni. Fourteen. English. I guess I'll make a list of vaguely interesting things about myself, just because I find it easier.
-this is my third year of NaNoWriMo. -I'm writing literary fiction this year, which is my favourite type of thing to read, too. -oh, and classics. I read hardly any contemporary teenage fiction. -I'm obsessed with languages. I'm currently studying German and Russian, but I know a little French, Czech and Norwegian, and I'd love to learn more of those. -I hate England and wish that I lived in Vienna or Prague or Bordeaux or somewhere. -I love photography. -I haven't taken ballet lessons since I was eight, but I still adore everything about it. -I am completely obsessed with anything and everything to do with the 1920s and '30s. I seldom meet fellow teenage enthusiasts of this era, so if you like Édith Piaf, silent films, flapper dresses, Yevgeny Zamyatin or anything then you should say hi. -I'm a knitter. I can crochet a little, but hardly. -I sing. -I'm one of those people who talks extremely quickly (and probably loudly) in the presence of her friends, but then starts stammering as soon as she has to talk in a classroom or answer a question. -I'm extremely anxious. -I play the classical guitar and double bass, and I'm trying to teach myself the piano. -I love Spring Awakening, both the play and the musical. -My favourite film is Amelie. -Victor Hugo and Anaïs Nin are my idols. Unfortunately, both are dead, so my chances of ever meeting them are, uh, pretty small. -my favourite sort of music to listen to is classical. Well, that's not really true; my favourite eras are the late Romantic and the early 20th-century, but, you know, classical is the all-encompassing term, so. My favourite composers are Shostakovich, Ravel, Gershwin, Borodin, Telemann, Penderecki (if I spelt that right), Lizt, Chopin, Elgar, Saint-Saëns and...wait, that's enough.
I'm in GMT, but I'm happy to talk to anyone in any timezone. NaNoMail is my communication form of choice, so you should just send me a message if you're interested. I have next to no life, so I should reply pretty quickly. :-)
Maria, 14-going-on-15, American. All right, I can't really think of some fancy little summary, so I'll just throw down some random facts: -My favorite book (and movie) is The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. -I'm one of those people who has to listen to music no matter what I'm doing; I like too many artists to mention, so I'll just mention my top three: The Beatles, Green Day, and Sheryl Crow. -I follow the white house on twitter and actually care about what's going on in the world. -I'm a sophomore in high school. -I love fashion; besides writing, it's my artsy thing. I can't really think of anything else...so just NaNoMail me if you'd like!
Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Looking for a writing buddy in your age group? Here's the place to ask!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi, This is my first year doing NaNoWriMo. I am 16 and am REALLY excited. First thing I want to say is this. I am a conservative Christian. I am fine being writing buddies with someone who dosn't share all of my beliefs, although that would be nice. :) However, I do not want someone who uses bad language or blasphemy. I don't mean to sound rude; I just want to make that clear from the beginning. Also, I am only looking for girl buddies.
I am homeschooled and LOVE it.
I DO NOT care for fantasy or magic.
I love Southern Gospel music! I know, I'm weird.
I love G. A. Henty novels.
I don't watch a lot of TV. I watch some old shows though, like Andy Griffith, Dragnet, Dick Van Dyke, etc.
My favorite subjects are science and math.
My story this year is about the sanctity of life, dealing specifically with the tragedy of tubal pregnancys.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Cool! We're alike on alot of things! Wanna be buddies? (By the way, I think I've heard of you before. Do you have blogger or blogspot or Homeschoolblogger?)
This is my first year doing NaNoWriMo.
I'm 15 years old, and like Saved Girl, I am also a conservative Christian. I wish for a writing buddy who doesn't curse, and like Saved Girl, I am only looking for girl buddies.
-I am homeschooled and it is AWESOME!
-I love to read. As long as it isn't vampires or witches or things like that.
-I love Gospel, Country, and Hymn music!
-My favorite subject is Science and Writing :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I added you as a writing buddy. You're my opposite, so we'll be pretty refreshing. Add me, too! :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
How do you add writing buddies????
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Go to the profile page and near the upper right hand corner of their profile there'll be an "add buddy" button. :) My sister had to show me...
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Well hello there Saved Girl and Emma Mayfield! I'm going to try to get in on this little writing buddies group!
But first allow me to introduce myself: I'm Kate, I'm 16 (quite nearly 17, but not there just yet), I'm a home school kid too. Also I'm graciously saved by Jesus, though I'm not quite sure you could call me conservative (i'm Presbyterian and where I'm from we're affectionately called the "Frozen Chosen" so I guess I am, maybe). We all sound a lot alike, would it be cool if we were all buddies?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Could I be buddies with you? i need several, and I'm a conservative christian girl who's homeschooled! :) I'm writing sort of a a christian fantasy novel, and I need as much help as I can get!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Gosple music for the win!! I want to be all girl's that replied to Savedgirls post writing buddies! :D
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi. I'm Patrick. I'm 16 and this is my first year on NaNoWriMo. I'm not entirely certain of what i'm going to write about. I enjoy making YouTube videos, performing and I'm a big fan of video games. Pokemon... I'm a Doctor Who and Harry Potter fan. I also really enjoy the Eragon books. So yeah. If anyone's interested in being a "writing buddy" then by all means. Talk to me!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
OH MY GOSH!!! Harry Potter and Doctor Who? Eragon too?
Same here!!
I'm 16 as well [my name is Joy] and this is my second year doing NaNoWriMo. I have to say that it is A TON of fun and totally worth all of the time that you put into it. I love writing, making videos [though I haven't made one in a while cause I've been busy], and reading on rainy days.
If you want to be writing buddies that would be so awesome.
[I'm kinda freaking out about the whole Harry Potter, Eragon, and Doctor Who thing because I haven't met anybody who likes all three as well] :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey, if you're a fan of Doctor Who and Eragon....in one of the books, a 'Lonely God' is mentioned briefly and never talked about again. Later, the author explained, "My only excuse is...the Doctor does travel through different dimensions." (About that, my memory isn't perfect.)
Yeah, I just feel like sharing that with everyone who likes both those things, since it's kind of amazing he managed to get something he's a huge fan of in a published book and everything. (If you don't believe me- which is reasonable- just check wikipedia. And yes, wikipedia is obviously the best source of information that's accurate and not at all a lie.)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
It's in Book Three. Brisingr. and in the ending pages of the book there's an explantation by the author himself. (slightly better than Wikipedia, lol)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I love all three of those things too!! haha
Not wanting a writing buddie or anything, but: Harry Potter, Eragon and Doctor who are PROBABLY my three favourite things in life!!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi! I'm Beth, 17, and this is my first year too!
I LOVE Harry Potter a ridiculous amount, Doctor Who is awesome and I really must read Eragon! I play the cello, guitar and piano, love writing songs, poetry, fiction, anything really! John Green is my favourite author and person haha!
I would love to be writing buddies :D
by the way, I'm crazy!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
John Green? God yes!!
Can you please be my writing buddy? Please?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Harry Potter, Doctor Who, John Green, and you're crazy? Can I get in this little writing buddy group too!?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Count me in too! I'm Maeve, I'm 17 and I'm going to try to juggle Stage Management, College Applications and a Novel... wish me luck? I've been on here for three years but never really TRIED at NaNo. Love Harry Potter, Doctor Who and sanity is for squares.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I would love to get in on this group of awesome people. John green is awesome. Any of you guys Nerdfighters?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Doctor Who, Harry Potter, and John Green?! Can I get in on this?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
DFTBA
does that answer your question?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Ahh, this thread is currently so full of awesomeness that I don't know where to reply.
I'm also a fellow nerdfighter and love Harry Potter, Starkid, John Green and all things nerdy :) I would love to meet other nerdfighters my age (16) and become writing buddies! So yeah, add me as a Writing Buddy if anyone wants to, I'll be happy to accept :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Harry Potter, John Green and Starkid? If you added Doctor Who to that list you'd be queen of everything.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Count me in as well! I'm Nicole, I'm seventeem and I love Doctor Who, HArry Potter, and Eragon! I also play the piano and am juggling college applications while actually trying to get to 50000 words this year!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Please, me too. I'm Alayna, 16, first year of nanowrimo. Harry Potter, Doctor Who, John Green, people who will put stuff on their heads with me! This sounds amazing
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
(This is late, but...)
Me too please! I'm hoping / guessing you guys are Nerdfighters?
I am buddyless at the moment. I would be honored. :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Same! DFTBA! I love Eragon, Doctor Who and Harry Potter! Count me in!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
French the Llama--so many Nerdfighters in one thread!! DFTBA :D
Can I be a part of this little writing group? I'm a newbie this year, although I just turned eighteen, and I would really like the support. I lovelovelove Harry Potter, Doctor Who--although I'm still only on the third season--John Green--obviously--Maureen Johnson, Sarah Dessen, e. Lockhart, Louise Rennison, polka-dots with stripes, glitter, and most genres of music. Especially wrock. The Remus Lupins are the best. :D
If anyone wants to be my writing buddy, just NaNoMail me. I think it would also be totally awesome to have a group "write-in" on Skype if anyone is interested. :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Well, shizzle my frizzle, I forgot to put my freaking name. It's Shelby, if any potential buddies out there wanted to know. And if you want to get to know me more, click here please. Feel free to peruse any of the links to see if I'm too dull or too freaky for you.
Oh! And please only contact me through NaNoMail so I know who you are. Just so I don't freak out that a total stranger is stalking me on any of the websites listed. Also, I curse. A lot. Like a sailor if I'm so inclined, so if you're easily offended, you have been warned. :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Harry Potter-yes ;D
Doctor Who is just.. genuis..
Wanna teach me how to play the guitar?! I fail so much ><
You're crazy and you like John Green?!
I'm becoming very glad I decided to do nanowrimo!
Please can we be writing buddies?! :O
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
POKEMON HARRY POTTER AND ERAGON ALL AT ONCE
OH MY GOD
I'm 16 too and my name is Dayna. This is my third nano and this will be my seventh novel (I've also written four screenplays). I'm a Junior in high school and I go to an all girls boarding/day school in Virginia. I've loved pokemon ever since preschool, and have every pokemon game since gameboy color (and some of those as well). It's borderline obsessive, I know.
Let's be buddies!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey, if you're a fan of Doctor Who and Eragon....in one of the books, a 'Lonely God' is mentioned briefly and never talked about again. Later, the author explained, "My only excuse is...the Doctor does travel through different dimensions." (About that, my memory isn't perfect.)

Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Yesssss! I'm Paige and this is my third year on here, but first year really seriously trying. And I love Doctor Who and Harry Potter. I'd love to be writing buddies!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I adore Harry Potter, and I'm a huge Doctor Who fan! Feel free to hit me up!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Oh, my gosh, you sound awesome.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
HP and DW!? Did I hear someone call my name?
Harry Potter and Doctor Who are two of my absolute FAVOURITE things.
I'm 13, my name is Rachel, and I can typically be seen with anywhere from two to twelve novels in my arms at any given time. I'm a major Pokemon fan (My Magical Hat of Writing is Pikachu!), I know how to play with your mind in ways you may never understand (I'm reading two Psychology books), I have a very extensive list of fandoms, and any time I'm not doing something, I've got a computer in front of me, a book in my hands, and a notebook to my right. I'm a bit of a grammar nazi, but it even annoys me, so I try to ignore that habit. This is my first year WriMo-ing, but I have a plan and I think I'll do well. I am a Nerdfighter as well. I have yet to read Eragon, but now I really really want to. Chameleon Circuit is my favourite band, hands-down (I am DEFINITELY of the Trockhead generation xD), Turn Left is pretty cool, and my three best friends and I want to start a Doctor Who/Harry Potter band. I'm a fan of Glee, House, Criminal Minds, AVPM/S, Slashnovels (homosexual romance novels- don't ask if you don't understand it), Torchwood, and so many other things I can't even list them all. Some of my favourite bands are Chameleon Circuit, Turn Left, the Remus Lupins, Tonks and the Aurors, Harry and the Potters, ALL CAPS, WinterSpringPro (Slytherin Night, mostly), and so manyother Wrock bands that I have 33 tabs of Wrock bookmarked on my laptop, and that's just the ones I listen to often. Well, I think that's a long enough rant for now. Buddy me if you want xD
P.S, I'd like to acknowledge, there are 42 people/comments here before me.
DFTBA

Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Oh my God. I love literally all of those things. It's actually sort of scary.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Criminal Minds, psychology, AVPM/S, Torchwood, House and slash? Just add Sherlock, Eragon and The Hunger Games and you would be a goddess.
I love you. I think I may buddy you. Okay? Good. :P
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
oh wow! you're one of the few awesome people who loves Doctor Who AND Eragon (at least that I know of)!!! My friends just showed me the awesomeness of Doctor Who about three months ago and I'm hooked! But Eragon, that's something that helps honestly inspire me. I'm 15 so a young author makes me optimistic.
By the way, I wouldn't get me started on Harry Potter, most people get lost after a minute or two when i start calling them idiotic muggles.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Oh Gosh! Harry Potter and Eragon?
Same here! They're both amazing.
I'm 15 and my name is Sierra. This is my first year of NaNoWriMo and I'm really excited. I get along with basically everyone. I will say however, that I'm a Harry Potter addict so if you are too then you should add me. I also like Twilight, but its not near as good as Harry Potter or Eragon. Hum. I can't really think of anything else to say... :O (Yes, be ye warned, I love to talk. )
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
As some beautiful, beautiful genius said, "Twilight was my summer fling, Harry Potter is my soul mate."
THIS IS NOW MY LIFE'S MOTTO.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey Patrick! My name is Rachel and this is my second Nano year.
I am also a big fan of doctor who (have you heard of trock? I've covered a trock song on youtube)
and harry potter
I would love to be a 'writing buddy' of yours
:)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey! I am 16 years old and this is my first year doing NaNoWriMo! I am super excited and super nervous and I would love to have a writing buddy!
Some things I love are Harry Potter, Team Starkid, Glee, just starting to get into Doctor Who, How I met Your Mother, The Big Bang Theory, Modern Family, Shakespeare, reading, acting, dancing, writing (duh!) and much more. I am homeschooled but not for religious reasons (I am not religious at all!). I am looking for a buddy around my age, someone who likes the same things as me, and i don't care about gender or how many years you have done NaNoWriMo!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi, I'm Esmé, I'm 15 and this is my first year too. I was home schooled until i was 12, though I'm not religious in any way and I basically love everything you just said :) so yeah, I'm looking for buddies so message me if you want to!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey, I'm Sydney and 16 years old. This is my first year as well...I just decided a couple days ago I was going to try it out so we'll see how it goes. Anyway, I would love to be writing buddies with yous. :) I have to admit, Harry Potter, The Big Bang Theory AND How I Met Your Mother, are simply amazing :) . I can't wait to get started on the book!!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Harry Potter, Big Bang Theory AND HIMYM?!
Damn, you people're awesome! :D
Message me if you guys want to be writing buddies!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I'm Bekah, and I commented/replied/posted a little up there somewhere. This is the best thread/forum/whatchamacallit evar. I'm 13-almost-14, I love Doctor Who, Eragon, Harry Potter, Big Bang Theory, Doctor Horrible, Glee, A Very Potter Musical/Sequel. I don't care about religions or gender or age if that matters to anybody.
I THINK THIS IS WHAT PAIN FEELS LIKE!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Ooooh, a fellow Starkid, by the looks of things! Are there any others of us out there?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi, I'm Lauren, I'm 16 too and it's my first year here as well :) We love almost identical things. I love Harry Potter, Glee, Doctor Who, How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory and Shakespeare (Macbeth is by far my favourite). I read, write and dance as well, and I've tried my hand at acting but the memorising of lines puts me off, so I've been writing them for my drama group instead. I've never met someone who's homeschooled, what's it like?
I'd be happy to be a writing buddy for you if you'd like :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi! I'm Austin, this is my second year doing NaNoWriMo and I like you :D I'm a nerdfighter, I love music (my profile has a lot of bands I listen to), and I go on Tumblr too much. So yeah, I'd love to be writing buddies with anyone, get to know each other, and keep each other going through November. Good luck to you all, regardless. c:
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
WOOOOOH Nerdfighter!
So, ermm....Hi, my name's Ambereen and this is my first year doing NaNo. I'm also a nerdfighter, and I obsessively watch Doctor Who, Sherlock, Merlin and Harry Potter. My story's gonna be fantasy, though I have no real plot line yet. :P
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Um hi everyone! This is the most liked I've ever been for my nerdiness! haha I would LOVE to be writing buddies with all of you I really would! Can we send joint messages on here between all of us, that would be ace!
DFTBA
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
So many nerdfighters!! Is it possible to create some kind of group? A Nerdfighteria group? That would be soo amazing! Otherwise I'd just like to have some nerdfighter writing buddies!
Don't forget to be awesome!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
A Nerdfigheria group? My friend, you just made my day! DFTBA
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Ah! fellow Merlin-watcher! And doctor who fan, and writer, and harry potter, and Nerdfighter, and...
Um...Let's see: if you like all of those, maybe you'd like Avatar the Last Airbender? (TV series, not the movie.) I don't know, I feel like this comment should do something slightly useful, so there's a show you might like.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
No, sorry, I haven't. I'll try and watch it in the school holidays, as well as watching the list of animes my friends told me I need to watch :P
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
DFTBA :) Oh, and yes, Panic at the Disco! is brilliant. You know the current singer is only the singer because the previous lead was sick and he filled in, and people liked his voice better so he just...stuck with it? I don't know, I thought that was interesting. I feel like these comments should actually tell people something, so even if they don't become a writing buddy, they still get something out of it. Useless information, that is.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Another nerdfighter here =D
I'm Lily and I'm 19, I LOVE harry potter and House, I've only ever gotten around to seeing season 1 of doctor who, which was awesome. I joined nanowrimo like three years ago, but this is the first I'm actually going to try and reach 50k, so I'd love to have some writing buddies xD
DFTBA!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey there:) My name is Summer-Jade, though I more often than not go by the name of Ginger, due to my ever so interesting hair colour. This is my first year taking part in NaNoWriMo. I'm from Mansfield Nottinghamshire, which is located in England, but I've wanted to live in California for the past five years of my life. I plan on attending Berkeley University. I know it will take effort but I have a very determined nature. I am a christian but I accept all religious beliefs.
These are a few of my favourite things;
- My Chemical Romance and Taylor Swift
- Harry Potter
-Tumblr
- Beautiful dresses
-Lip Piercings
-Acoustic covers of songs
- Kissing in the rain.
- The smell of a new book:)
Please be my friend?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi. You can call me Dyute. I really love writing. I'm 14 and would really want a buddy that'll listen to me and help me, and I'll help them back! I'm really a fan of the Tamora Pierce books, and manga, and anything fun. I really love fanfiction. I like Harry Potter, Eragon, and Eon, Skinned, and a whole bunch of other stuff.
I feel like I'm blabbing.... I play violin in my school orchestra... I hope to write 50,000 words... I'm a teenager... I love people... I hate annoying people... I like pretty stuff... Oh, and I'm a really bad artist. I cannot draw. It just doesn't work out.
So would anyone want to be my writing buddy? I hope to make great friends!!!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey! I'm 14 too, and I used to read Tamora Pierce books a lot. :) All of the Tortal series and Circle of Magic books. I also like to read manga (but no anime, XP). I play flute in concert band at school, and I used to play piano until this school year. I can't draw either... my little brother is a better artist than me. *sigh* I'll be your writing buddy! If it helps, try to get some people from school to write too :D
Did I mention this is my first year so my goal is, um, 25,000 words? :P
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey all!
I'm Jasmine, and I'm an 18-year-old freshman at Marquette University. I'm a political science and writing-intensive English double major, and I've declared pre-law.
I am a huge fanatic of Doctor Who, and I love Harry Potter as well! I maintain two blogs on tumblr, and this is the first year I'll be attempting NaNoWriMO (even though I've had an account on this site for almost three years now).
I'm into most any kind of music (except country), and I'm especially into Florence + The Machine and similar artists; my ultimate favorite bands are The Beatles and OK Go.
Feel free to talk me! I'm up for meeting new people! :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi :) im 16 and this is my first year doing NaNoWriMo, I AM SOOOOOO EXCITED! Well, i LOVE harry potter, the hunger games, and others :D i'm a nerd-fighter. french the llama!!, add me as a writting buddy <3

Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi. I'm a 16-year-old New Englander who loves show choir, acting, singing, and country music. Fan of Starkid, Harry Potter, How I Met Your Mother, Doctor Who, Glee, and Big Bang Theory. It's my first year, but I'm looking for buddy(ies) who will challenge me to word wars and get me working, even when I'm procrastinating. And when need be, someone to vent to.
Thanks :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hullo. You can call me Gwendolyn I'm 14 years old and this is my second year doing NaNo and I'm uber excited! If you love dancing, ballet, Harry Potter(or Severus Snape), Rick Riordan, Cinda Williams Chima, soccer, reading, writing, laughing or eating chocolate you should seriously consider friending me or just checking out my profile. Oh, and if you watch Once Upon A Time ;) you know what to do:)
I'm looking forward to being a buddy!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Okay, so uh, Hi!
Basic stats:
17, Female, Live in Indiana with my roommate and a cat named Neko. I have Fibromyalgia - so my life is pretty much being sick and trying to complete HS via correspondence.
I spend a lot of time reading.
Writing and I have a bit of a history. I wanted to be an author from the age of 11, but we grew apart around 14-15. But I found myself sick last year and reconsidered.
Books: Shiver trilogy, the Gemma Doyle Trilogy, Wake trilogy, Blue Is For Nightmares series, HP, Stuff I can't remember (brain fog!)
TV shows: The Office, House, HIMYM.
I swear, I laugh, I joke and use sarcasm, and I have no idea what a nanobuddy does, but here's hoping I find out!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Sup, I'm Elphaba, teenage
witchgeek.Here's a little bit about me:
*I'm a percussionist and a total band geek. I love almost anything concert or marching band. My favorite percussion instrument is the marimba, playing it with four mallets is particularly fun.
*I'm an animation geek. I know tons of pointless animation trivia, and watch what is probably too many cartoons for someone my age.
*I'm sixteen years old. I have a car named Mandy.
*I like many genres of fiction. I'm pretty open to anything, though horror keeps me awake at night, so I try to avoid that. :P
*I love musicals. Wicked is probably my favorite. I also like Phantom, Hello Dolly, A Chorus Line, and more that I'm too lazy to mention.
*I also love orchestral/band music. My favorite composers as of late are Hazo and Whitacre, and the radio in my car is always turned to the classical station.
*This is my fifth year doing NaNo, and hopefully my fourth year winning.
*I'm a brony. (I don't use the term pegasister, because I'm a unicorn. -:P)
*I like baking.
*I identify as a Christian, and have what is probably considered a liberal theology.
So that's more than you probably ever wanted to know about me.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi. This is my Second year doing NaNo! I am 16. I am need of a writing buddie. I am really strong in my Morals. I can be Mean at times. I swear on Occasion. I am a sophmore in High School, miss being homeschooled. I usually get along better with the guys in my life then the girls...
I Am a Sophmore.
I am a Nerdfighter! ^_^
I Love preety much all music beside Rap.
I love to read; just wish I had more time.
I love english hate math and science.
I don't watch much TV...
I am an Anime/Manga Nerd.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi, Suna here. This is my first year doing Nano and so I'm really excited about it. I'm 17 and love YAs specially fantasy/paranormal stuff involved. I'm a rock/metal fan (except for real screamo) and love Percy Jackson :D
If anyone interested in being buddies by all means talk to me!!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Heya, I'm Chococat. :D I'm 14. This is my first year doing NaNoWriMo, but my older sister has done it before. I'm on Eastern Standard Time (I think) and I'm looking to make some new friends. :) I'm a non-denominational Christian, and I went to public school all the way up to this year. I'm now at a private school, but the tuition is supah expensive and all that stuff about being cheap asians and stuff so I'll be back in public school next year. I play flute, I like to read, and I could be classified as a nerd, I guess, except I've never gotten around to reading Harry Potter of LOTR and I don't play/watch Pokemon/Anime or anything. I really like reading, reading manga, playing random computer games, and talking to friends. :P I speak American English (lol) and I'm learning Spanish at school (I'm in Spanish 2 right now) and Chinese at church (2nd grade). I'm using a school-issued MacBook to write my story because I can't really fathom typing on an iPod touch (gahhh so difficult >__<) but I have nothing against PCs... I run track, but I mostly do it for fun because I'm super slow and eat lots of unhealthy food :D but I'm not fat. I'm not skinny, I'm not fat, I'm just average. I'm also pretty short, meaning not super short but shorter than a lot of people. I'm asian, but it doesn't really mean much since I was born in Texas. I suppose there's more, but if you've read through this whole thing without skimming I'll be amazed and I'd love to be your writing buddy :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hello!
My name is Sue. I am 16 years old and home schooled. This is my first year as a home school kid and that is why I am doing NaNo. With school and life I never found myself to have time to do this. Although this year that all changes! Now I guess is the part I tell you a little bit of important stuff about me.
-I love reading! I do not like vampire/angel stories. I do like dystopian novels, did I say like? I really meant obsessed…
-my favorite book is the Iron Knight by Julie Kagawa; I like all her books in that series as well.
-as of July of this year I am a Harry Potter addict, yeah!
-laughing is my hobby, as is knitting, writing, and reading.
-my story is about a girl that loses her sister due to suicide and that girl finds theirs more to her sister then anyone ever knew. (Yes, I am surprised I am not writing a dystopian novel. I do think about changing my story every other hour though.)
-if you’re like me, or if your not like me at all, then lets be writing buddies! And let’s share our crazy, fanatical, month of November together!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I'm definitely in need of writing buddies. Feel free to add me!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
hey this is my first year. I am 17, 18 in March. I love writing, even if i cant spell that well. I want all buddies. Im new on this site so add me please. LOL I love watching tv, my favorite shows are girlmore girls and glee. I love writing, i even get in trouble at school for it. I love all types of books.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I'm Stephanie!
- I'm extremely outgoing and I love to write. I've always wanted a writing buddy. This is my first year, though I signed up a while ago but I was sick and couldn't continue. I love making people laugh. So of course my stories usually involve humor and of course romance. I LOVE romance. But anyway, add me if you're interested =)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Just decided to put myself out there.
I'm Samurai, 13, a homeschooler, and a YWPer. Probably more than a few of you know the site.
This is my first year doing the 'adult NaNo' and I'm really excited!
I write and read Fantasy mostly.
Anyway, thanks! This is pretty brief, I know. But can you really share all of your personality and everything in one post?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Looking for a writing buddy :) Hence me posting in this fine thread.
Some things about me:
I'm 16 (17 on the 15th Nov.)
I love reading especially the Sharpe Series & all books by Patrick Robinson.
I love watching some stuff on TV such as the televised version of Sharpe, Scrubs, All CSIs, NCIS, Friends (Duh.), the A-Team ( I love it when a plan comes together) and so on and so on...
I currently study Maths, Physics & Psychology at AS at Sixth Form.
Looks: Short with very short brown hair. Fairly stocky build.
I go to Army Cadets. 'gotta love it!
I'm fascinated by the Napoleonic Wars.
Like whatcha hear? Message me! I'd prefer someone in the same timezone as me so that I can talk to them at reasonable times.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I want a writing buddy!
The name's Rachel, I'm fourteen years old as of this year although I'm rather mature online. That being said, I still love to have a good laugh and enjoy myself.
I don't really have the attention spans for most movies, but do enjoy TV shows such as House, The Secret Circle, Supernatural and Futurama..
I currently study French, Latin and Italian (although that's outside of school) as well as all the core subjects since I'm only year nine, but I hope to study a reasonably high level of math as well as literature and the sciences such as physics, chemistry and biology.
I'm looking for a writing buddy who preferably lives in Australia and has MSN or some form of instant messaging (facebook?) to keep in contact. I'm also happy to talk about other things other than writing, basically whatever tickles your fancy. So if that sounds like you, send me a message! :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Bonjour!
I already posted my rant (see above halfaya's comment), but I just wanted to say, I've had 5 years of French, and I also know Pig Latin, (some) Spanish, and (some) German. I know a teensy bit of italian, as well.
See you in the Madman's box

Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I would like a writing buddy!
I'm Sunny. I'm fourteen and I live in Toronto, Canada. My favourite movies are How to Train Your Dragon and the Lion King, and my favourite TV shows are the Mentalist, Buffy, Firefly, Doctor Who, and the Good Wife. I love photography, platypuses, and creepy things.
I have no preference for time zone (though I live in EST), so send me a message :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I love the mentalist :D
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I'm Lucy, I'm also 14.
I am a HUGE fan of Doctor Who and Firefly. To the point where posters from those two shows cover my walls.
I also do photography, acting, cosplay, and improv. I'm studying Japanese.
I live in Los Angeles, CA, but I want to move to Canada because it's too hot here. I'm in the PST time zone.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Okay, BlueNinja, I swear we're the same person in two different locations.
I'm 14, I reserve the theater room in my apartment building SOLELY for Doctor Who every Saturday (well, when it's actually on...*sob*) and I've seen every episode of Firefly at least twice.
The only thing is that I haven't been able to study Japanese as much since I moved.
I live in Seattle, WA, but I want to move to Canada because it's awesome. I'm also in PST.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Ahhh! Doctor Who fanatic right here!

Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I LOVE HOW TO TRAIN OYUR DRAGON AND THE LION KING NOW ALL YOUR MISSING IS my MOVIE AND NARNIA!!!!!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I just have to say that ... The Lion King is awesome!! I live in Canada too, just moreover by Windsor than Toronto :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies

Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
OO OO pick me pick me! I want a writing buddy XD
The name is Cassy, I live near Mason City, Iowa where I attend college, I'm a freshman this year. I don't watch much for TV but I do enjoy teen mom and the secret life of the american teenager. I like shows like that because I'm a teen mom, I'm 17 with a 15 month old daughter Nevaeh. I hope I can teach her to love writing as much as I do.
I love reading, love love love it!! Mostly YA, contemporary, dystopian, and fantasy.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Call me Ouji~
I'm a peculiar little organism with a strange obsession with the two-dimensional. I am a 「fudanshi」, to put it bluntly. If you think I am strange because of this, please feel free to go get lost.
As my username suggests, I find beauty in horror and the macarabe. Another quirk of mine.
I keep to myself for the most part, and have a rather brutal personality, but if you find me interesting, I challenge you to get to know me.
My writing this year is yaoi fanworks of the anime Yuugioh.
That is all.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Fujoshi girl here. I'm not sure if you'd want me as a writing buddy, as my book will be somewhat post-apocalyptic and completely different to yours, but still. Be friends?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Question. will there be leather pants?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Alas, no.
I'm trying hard to stay away from LittleKuriboh's parody, even though I might end up calling Malik's dark half Melvin, since I can't think of a normal sounding name to call him. I love Abridged, but sometimes it overtakes canon a bit too much for me~
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
...in America?
WHOOPS I SAID NOTHING.
IGNORE THIS COMMENT.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey,
I'm Aaron, currently studying computer science at Brown University with fiction and Japanese on the side. I'm into game design, music hoarding, visual novels, interactive fiction, FIRST robotics, and a bunch of other stuff.
I usually enjoy pestering my writing buddies, so if you've got AIM/MSN/Skype or something, that'd be neat. I'm currently trying to sort out ideas for this year's NaNo and it'd be fun to have someone to bounce ideas with. I'm also probably a better editor than writer and I'm happy to help review stuff.
Well, anyway, if any of that sounds interesting, feel free to send nanomail or add me. Or, I'm psywombats on AIM and can be contacted there.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I'd love to help- it's always interesting to hear other people's ideas. I don't have AIM/MSN/Skype, but I'd love to help you figure out what idea to use for your NaNo.
Hearing people figure out what they want for a story is pretty amazing- I've never seen the same style used by two different people.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
hello there ~ i'm miia, a 16-years-old girl, and i'm a student of accounting and european history :> trigonometry is my favourite type of math, and balkan/southern european history is my favourite type of history. outside of school, i study languages (i'm currently studying six ... free time, what is that) and semi-obsessively follow korean entertainment and k-pop. yes, i am one of those people lmao. anyway, i'd love a writing buddy just to hang out with and bounce ideas off of during nanowrimo. i'm available on nanomail, AIM, and tumblr, so if i haven't scared you off with my boringness, feel free to nanomail me :> i'd love to talk. ♥
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey guys! So my name is Katie.
I'm 17 and currently typing this during Bio class. I recently decided that I had to give up reading fanfiction for awhile to catch up on my growing pile of books I own that I haven't read yet. I watch many TV shows including: Bones, Castle, How I Met Your Mother, Modern Family, Glee, Merlin, Doctor Who, New Girl, My Little Pony, Buffy, Firefly and so many others.
This is my third year doing NaNo and I could use some friends to help me through. I'm on here, fanfiction, skype, msn, tumblr, twitter and a few other things.
So if you managed to read all of that and are still interested send me a message. Chat's with strangers are always the most interesting.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Doctor Who. I'm a cousin fan (I watch Torchwood), but Doctor Who. My next fandom to attack and fall in love with. But gah... Glee, New Girl? Former fanfiction reader?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
So we're the same person....
Hi!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Ugh, your taste in television is so quality. I think we may be the same person.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Fellow person with a Sherlock icon! Hello :D
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Aah!!! I love Sherlock!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Yay, writing buddies!
I'm Ily, 17, too close to 18. I live Glee, Doctor Who, Downton Abbey, Supernatural, among other things. Those are the major ones I flail about. I'm a total history and fitness nerd so. Yeah.
This is my third year doing NaNo, and the only year I actually, really, have time for because I've just left school. It's nice to have someone to bitch and cheer with. I have msn/aim/tumblr/twitter and here, normally.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi!
I'm Heather, and I'll be seventeen in December. I love Glee, and I just started watching supernatural. And I love history and English. To the point of obsession. This is my second year doing NaNo, and I'd love to be writing buddies! Haha, I have msn, too.

Ahem. Um, I love Leverage, among other shows. Well, to be fair, I don't watch that much TV. I spend most of my time on my laptop, and messing around on IRC and FB, and Twitter. And, well, I'm bilingual, since I study English and Chinese. And since, y'know, kanji is somewhat close to Chinese~
Oh, right. And I'm in GMT+8.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Leverage is a brilliant show- I didn't get to see most of the last season, though, because I'm at school :/
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I LOVE Leverage!!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I'm going to do this in the form of a list, because that's probably easier.
-My name is Max.
-I am 19.
-Currently, I am in my first year at university. I'm doing maths.
-My obsessions are mainly with anime, role playing games, sci-fi and fantasy in any form, and probably some other things.
-This is going to be my third Nano. So far, I have a 100% win rate. Hopefully I can manage this even with uni work and this strange thing known as a "social life" I seem to have picked up here.
-I'm a sceptic and a humanist.
-I am English.
-After deciding that I want to get fit whilst at uni, I signed up for Tae Kwon Do, fencing and Capoeria classes, each once a week. So far, I have been to each one once. Time will tell if I manage to keep up with any of them.
-I am a Nerdfighter.
-Also, a Whovian.
-And a Browncoat.
-For this year's Nano, I am writing something that I have been planning/worldbuilding for about 2 years.The reason it took me so long to get round to is that it will be (mainly) set at my uni. As this is my first year, had I written it sooner, it would have had no setting. This would have made things somewhat difficult.
-Anyway, it is a modern fantasy, mostly concerned with fairly normal things. The whole leaving home for the first time and growing up thing, but with magic and stuff.
There are quite a few things on that list. Anyway, if you want to talk about ideas, writing, or just anything, send me a Nanomail. I'll try to reply as quickly as I can. If you're going to add me as a Writing Buddy, I'd prefer it if you'd send me a message, too. That's just being polite, really. Anyway, (I've used that word three times now. Huh) I like talking to people on here, so send me a message if you're interested.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I'm just going to say right now, lemming_the_lemming, that you sound exactly like a person made of awesome should. DFTBA, my friend.
About me:
-My name is Maria
-I am 19
-This is my second year as the Municipal Liaison for the Lethbridge, Alberta region
-I am a second-year undergraduate at university, studying Music Education on French horn with a side of piano, voice, composition, and mathematics education.
-This is my fourth year doing NaNo, and hopefully my fourth win.
-I have developed acute tendinitis-verging-on-carpal-tunnel in both wrists, which may hinder the above point.
-I love music, anime, woodworking, the Japanese language and culture, procrastination, fanfiction by the boatload, wandering the internet, reading young adult fiction and adult fantasy, Red Vines, and all manner of other things that don't happen to cross my mind at the moment.
-I enjoy long walks between classes (not really), dinner by the light of my dorm room kitchen's three burnt-out bulbs (as long as the food's good), and watching sunsets from my bedroom window (when I'm done holing myself in the basement music corridor from 9-7).
-I am a Nerdfighter.
-And a Starkid (who will always prefer Joey Richter over Darren Criss)
-And a band geek.
-And a Potterhead
-And one of those people who you look at and ask, "Why in all hell does she involve herself in so many things at once and suffer potential mental breakdowns due to stress?"
-I hate racists, onions, 4Kids dubs, hypocrites, and bad music
-This year, my novelling project is a continuation of a Fullmetal Alchemist/CSI: Las Vegas crossover fanfiction that I have been writing for just over four years now. I've finally decided enough is enough and I will actually finish it without letting procrastination overwhelm me!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Thank you! Same to yourself. I have to say, I love the idea of a CSI/FMA crossover. So many possibilities. I've only seen the odd episode of CSI (it's what my mum watches when there's nothing else on), but I'd really like to know what would happen is Grissom met Mustang.
Also, agreed on onions. Racists, bad music and 4Kids are just givens, frankly.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
My fic focuses primarily on Ed and Al, and their interactions with the CSI cast. I must say, I'm having a ton of fun with Ed and Grissom, as well as Ed and Catherine, conversations. The dynamics are just so interesting to write!
Mushrooms are pretty disgusting, as well. Though I tend to lean toward onion hatred more readily. And 4Kids really should just not exist. My roommate likes to show me what they did to the first seasons of One Piece, and it makes me want to cry from the travesty.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Sorry to butt in, but FMA/CSI crossover! That's brilliant! I just read your excerpt as well...love it.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I'm Johnathan with an 'H'. 17. Senior. Home schooled. I don't watch a lot of TV on the actual TV..mostly on the internet..aka Hulu.
I'm a big fan of Glee {even though their inconsistency with plots makes me mad}, I love New Girl-Zooey Deschanel is brilliant. Wednesday nights on ABC are pretty much the best, I mean The Middle AND Modern Family?! Best. Ever.
kdjkajflkadjlkj. As I was typing this a freaking HUGE KILLER ANT crawled onto my screen i squished it with my fingers and moved on with life.
I enjoy listening to music: Matt Nathanson, Mumford and Sons, Jason Castor, ADELE, Train, Fee, Maroon 5 and so many others.
If you're liking what you're reading you should send me some nano mail and we can start chatting or you can reply to this post!
:D
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Can we please be buddies?? hahahah. (: Whenever they allow us to add people...
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Ally! this is Zoe LC Friend me??
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
HOME SCHOOLERS UNITE.
Though, technically, I've graduated. ;) Hello there! I'm Katherine (or Squiddish), I'm 18, a homeschool graduate, and generally just an ordinary individual. (Ordinary? Nothing ordinary about me!)
I love Glee, although I hate Rachel, New Girl is amazing, and Parenthood are what get me through my TV-ness, for the most part. Though I've watched copious amounts of TV and movie... just so happens that I no longer have the time for it.
Killer ants have been out to get me since that sidewalk incident two weeks ago. I think they're recording my room... there are cameras everywhere. They're watching you. They're watching me. They are everywhere.
As well, music is amazing.. though, honestly, from your list I can only officially say that I know and like Maroon 5. Mostly because Katherine tends to stick closely to her Country music. (Or Spanish, despite not speaking a lick of it)
I'd love to be buddies. If you don't mind someone nagging you for word wars or occasionally checking in to see how the wordcount's coming. ;)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Ummmmmm, hayyyyloo there! :D
Interwebz tv is the very best, I agree. Who wants to actually watch TV on the network's time? Puh-lease. And Zooey is a beast <3
Also, I LOVELOVELOVE your taste in music *nodnod*
I've been homeschooled off and on my entire life (I'm 16/junior)
Can we be buddies, pretteh pretteh please?
C:
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I loved the bit about the freaking HUGE KILLER ANT. Buddies?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Wow we listen to like, the exact same music :)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I laughed about the huge killer ant that walked by you while you were typing... Can we please be buddies?? I like Adele too... Although I have to say I like Sky Sailing better.
I play flute and fife, which takes up a lot of time.
I also think people with weird name spellings are cool.
I'm 15 (and a half, haha).
A snowstorm just practically destroyed my town and we have had 6 snow days so far.
Anything else, just ask. :D
Thanks!!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
also i'm on EST time in the US..if anyone cares.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey everyone!
I'm new to the whole NaNoWriMo party, but I've been working on an idea that sparked to life in my head for ages, to the extent that the characters have become alter egos of mine, which is a little sad.
Anywho, I'd love to have a writing buddy who I can bounce ideas off of, and get critiques and opinions and such. I'm an avid fantasy fan, and my other interests include illustrating and anime!
If anyone's interested, I'm in GMT in England and will proably only contact throgh nanomial, but I'm online almost every evening.

Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hey all,
I'm Shan, 15 and in year 11. This will be my third year doing NaNo, I also did CampNaNo back in August. My idea for this year has been bouncing around my mind now although I don't actually have a plot, so it'd be cool to have someone to bounce ideas around with.
I'm completely obsessed with Harry Potter, along with acting, reading and of course writing (especially fanfiction). So yeah, if anyone is interested in being writing buddies, that's cool, I'm usually on here in the evenings as well as on MSN and Tumblr.

Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Anybody going to explain what THE GAME is?
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
yeah, sure. the object of the game is to not think about the Game itself. so its impossible to win; you just have to announce when you lose.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
AHHHH!!! How dare you!!! You just made me loose the GAME!!! And I haven't lost in a month!!!!!!! Ahhhhh!!!! So you're horrible at procrastinating? Does that mean you're bad at it? Does that mean you don't know how to procrastinate? Does that mean you need help???
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
OMG, I've been reading this WHOLE THREAD looking for an LOTR fan! Please be my buddy?
Hm, I guess I'm getting ahead of myself...
I'm 18, freshie in college, LOVE LOTR, Eragon, Narnia, The Hunger Games, The Deed of Paksenarrion, and just epicness in general. I also like The Giver and "softer" stuff like that. And pirates, ninjas, and Jedi(s?). And Han Solo, who deserves a category all his own. :)
So if there's someone out there who isn't totally repelled by the description above, add me!
Also, there's a twitter thing some people are trying to get going. use the hashtag #NaNoDailyWC to post your progress! If you wanna add me on twitter, I'm @slightlyclueles. Just say you're from NaNo and I'll add you too!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Youre like... basicly me.. just younger.
i agree with/have in common with 95% of the things you wrote.
buddies? or mail me oh awesome one?!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Grr. I haven't lost the game since monday. i yelled 'i lost the game' in the middle of class, and I bet the entire school could hear the class shouting I LOST THE GAME. Anyway, i would love to be your writing buddie!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I'm Raven, 17. I technically live in Illinois, but my home is in South Dakota. I'm proudly engaged after being with him for almost all our lives.
This is my second year of NaNo and I'm writing a Sci-Fi Dystopian novel. I would like a writing buddy writing something similar =)
Last year I started off with a novel about a teen who was raped and got pregnant in her early teens, and was cast out by her mother. Fell in love. And then died. Which was a fictionalized version of the story of a girl I knew. But I didn't get far with that and ended up writing a collection of short stories. This year I'm using an idea I've been passionate about ever since I read Divergent by Veronica Roth for summer reading for school.
So if you're interested and also writing a post-apocalyptic (not involving zombies!) or a dystopian, NaNoMail me =)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
hey, im aimee, also 17 from england (london)
is ur name really raven? that rocks!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Love to be a buddy! Victoria, 16, Small-Town-Middle-of-Nowhere USA. I'm sorta writing a dystopia, but more fantasy than scifi. I just read Divergent about two weeks, LOVED IT!!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Sry, guess I should give a few more details, and no edit button...
Love
-The Mentalist
-Castle
-Solitaire
-Divergent (Yahhh!)
Fav book...well, I can't pick the book, but love the Wheel of TIme series (Robert Jordan, just FYI). I live in mountain time zone, USA, but I check my email all the time, and am on the web most nights (7-9), also Sunday afternoons.
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
- Appingo, can go by Ash if that's your thing. Female. 18, USA, asexual-biromantic, Mountain Timezone which is -7MST.
- That said, my sleeping schedule is better suited to an Asian timezone. My best friend lives in Korea, and I'm not in school at the moment, so my sleeping schedule shifted more to her timezone by accident. Oops. I'm up in the afternoon and all hours of the night, so for those of you in school, it shouldn't be a big deal. And I'll be a wonderful buddy if you stay up late at night sometimes. :D
- I start school in January with a major in Linguistics. I speak Japanese semi-decently after living there for two years and then taking the language at a high school level for four years.
- My major fandoms are Harry Potter, Hetalia, Homestuck and Umineko no Naku Koro Ni along with various JRPGs. Yes, in case you couldn't tell, I'm a bit of a fan of anime. If you're not either, though, that's okay. : ) I love getting to know new people, and we can bond through writing!
- Need said, I'd just love to meet someone to bounce ideas off of, discuss our NaNos, encourage each other through November, etc. I'm not aiming for 50k this year, I'm aiming for complete on a first draft of a project that's been around since middle school. I never felt confident writing it during past NaNos because of stuff going on, but since I don't have school now, it's kind of a 'now or never' situation for me.
- I have MSN and Skype, and usually pretty much always on both.
- I also have no life and will check my Nanomail during all waking hours, so don't be afraid to send me a message saying hello! : )
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Heya :) my name's Toni and I live in Australia if that's close enough to the Asian time-line for you. I turned 18 at the beginning of the year and am in my first year of Uni, studying Creative Arts. I'm a huge fan of anime also, and learned Japanese in school. I don't spend much time watching TV, but I love Merlin and am watching X factor (aussie form of American idol, if there isn't X factor there...) right now. I usually buy anime and manga from the shops. im also on MSN and Skype, but I'm usually on MSN more than anything.
anyways, if you're interested in being writing buddies, send me a nanomail :)

Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Hi everyone! *nervous wave* I'm Tesni. Fourteen. English.
I guess I'll make a list of vaguely interesting things about myself, just because I find it easier.
-this is my third year of NaNoWriMo.
-I'm writing literary fiction this year, which is my favourite type of thing to read, too.
-oh, and classics. I read hardly any contemporary teenage fiction.
-I'm obsessed with languages. I'm currently studying German and Russian, but I know a little French, Czech and Norwegian, and I'd love to learn more of those.
-I hate England and wish that I lived in Vienna or Prague or Bordeaux or somewhere.
-I love photography.
-I haven't taken ballet lessons since I was eight, but I still adore everything about it.
-I am completely obsessed with anything and everything to do with the 1920s and '30s. I seldom meet fellow teenage enthusiasts of this era, so if you like Édith Piaf, silent films, flapper dresses, Yevgeny Zamyatin or anything then you should say hi.
-I'm a knitter. I can crochet a little, but hardly.
-I sing.
-I'm one of those people who talks extremely quickly (and probably loudly) in the presence of her friends, but then starts stammering as soon as she has to talk in a classroom or answer a question.
-I'm extremely anxious.
-I play the classical guitar and double bass, and I'm trying to teach myself the piano.
-I love Spring Awakening, both the play and the musical.
-My favourite film is Amelie.
-Victor Hugo and Anaïs Nin are my idols. Unfortunately, both are dead, so my chances of ever meeting them are, uh, pretty small.
-my favourite sort of music to listen to is classical. Well, that's not really true; my favourite eras are the late Romantic and the early 20th-century, but, you know, classical is the all-encompassing term, so. My favourite composers are Shostakovich, Ravel, Gershwin, Borodin, Telemann, Penderecki (if I spelt that right), Lizt, Chopin, Elgar, Saint-Saëns and...wait, that's enough.
I'm in GMT, but I'm happy to talk to anyone in any timezone. NaNoMail is my communication form of choice, so you should just send me a message if you're interested. I have next to no life, so I should reply pretty quickly. :-)
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
Maria, 14-going-on-15, American. All right, I can't really think of some fancy little summary, so I'll just throw down some random facts:
-My favorite book (and movie) is The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton.
-I'm one of those people who has to listen to music no matter what I'm doing; I like too many artists to mention, so I'll just mention my top three: The Beatles, Green Day, and Sheryl Crow.
-I follow the white house on twitter and actually care about what's going on in the world.
-I'm a sophomore in high school.
-I love fashion; besides writing, it's my artsy thing.
I can't really think of anything else...so just NaNoMail me if you'd like!
Re: Age Group: Teens Writing Buddies
I love The Outsiders, its such a great book! It made me cry x3 and i absolutely adore the beatles :) I have almost all their songs on my ipod
