I'm from the first time here and I wanna start writing my first words. How do I do that? I finally find out how to edit my profile but when I wanna start writing I don't find any bottom to click on and just start writing. Please help me! I also wanna reach the 50,000 words goal for the next 3-4 months.
yours, Gemma

If I'm reading you correctly, you just need to write (which sounds far easier than it turns out to be sometimes). Open up the word processing program on your computer, get out that typewriter, or grab a pen and some paper and have at it! Once you get started, it doesn't seem quite so daunting to write 50k. :)
That's great! There are places in the forum where you can post about it! However, as far as putting words into a validator and getting your bar filled up, you can only do that during the month of November (meaning you have to write all 50k in that month if you want your profile and posts to reflect your word count).

Hi Gemma,
I did NaNo for the fist time last year and am looking forward to November so that I can do it again.
You can do your own writing outside of NaNo, but to qualify as a winner and in the spirit of the
self competition, you are to start writing on the 1st of November at 12:01am if your ambitious or anxious!
and you must have your work validated before 30 November at 11:59pm.
It sounds like a huge task (and it is) but it is soooooo worth it when you actually finish!
Wishing you all the best and I hope to see you in the winners circle at the end of November!
sincerely,
sydlife
