Hey everyone and welcome to the eleventh year NaNoWriMo! Now I know up in the north is a bit secluded but there's no reason NaNo can't make it's way up to your doorsteps, living rooms, chaotic minds and coffee shops.

My name is Sam and I live half time in Fort Providence, NWT and St. John's, NL. This November I'll be in Newfoundland so I won't be as much a part of the Northern NaNos but I figured I'd hop along over and get things rolling as best I could.

This will be my *counts on fingers* fifth NaNo so I know all about the process and can give any advice anyone needs.

So yeah, excuse me for being bad at these things but welcome to NaNo '09!

Feel free to post on the forums to your hearts content (As long as you're following posting rules which consist mainly of "no spamming/flaming") and get to know each other. You can ask anyone on here any questions about NaNo, the process, you can have chats, whatever you want. Any questions you may have about the group, the process, whatever, you can email me on here, or send it to Majoronmage@hotmail.com.

Before I go, I have two pieces of advice to give you.

The first, don't hold onto your sanity too hard, it's inevitable that you'll lose it in NaNo.

The second, have fun in your own personal thirty days of literary abandon!

:)

Hey everyone, it's me again. Hoping to find some active forum NaNoers over here. This thread will be a place where you can post your novel ideas. You can share what you've got, what you're thinking, or anything really and either receive simple compliments or advice from myself and others. So let's share the rough ideas we've got for our novels and get Canada :: Elsewhere on the map!

My novel's still waiting for me to plot its course. I haven't had any time to figure out anything except the base idea and four characters. See, it's a sequel to an alternate ending to my actual Non nano novel wherein there are two worlds; the physical world and spiritual world. The physical world is where beings like Bob and Joe live - or more precisely Majoron Alosyn, the MC of the novel. In the Spirit World you get entities like Wind, Battle, Reminisce, and more importantly Intelligence.

In this sequel, someone is taking over both worlds, starting with the Spirit World and the first spirit to fall is the spirit of intelligence. All the other spirits try to bless humans with access to their powers in order to beat this usurper, but they're short on time as they're all succumbing one by one to this dudes power. So, in the physical world you get a lot of half powers and stupid ideas. Everyone is a little more brain dead, and have brain dead powers to go along with it. For instance, this one guy has super strength, while lifting light objects.

So that's the baseline in a nutshell. It's a comedy about brainless superheroes with half cracked powers trying to save a world of fools. Doesn't it sound fun? :D
