I usually don't think much about my plot before Nano starts. As we all know, No Plot, No Problem. Except that this year, I have a full time job, I'm making a cookbook of which I need to cook every item still, and I may be getting a second job. I'm contemplating a 30-day insomnia stretch (maybe just sleeping through Thanksgiving, that's not that important)...
So I'm trying to think of a plot. Or an idea. Or SOMETHING. So here it is: A meta-novel. I've done Nano 3 years now, completing in 8, 16, and 15 days respectively. I have an idea of how it's going to be this time as well. I am pretty sure a meta-novel would be pretty sweet. But would anyone want to read it that doesn't do Nano? Could I make it so that it would interest non-writers? I think so, because there's so much more to writing than the act itself. Good idea? Yesno?

What's everybody else's "plan" (muwahahahah plans and November, total opposites).

I think that a meta-novel could be cool, and I' m pretty sure you could make it interesting to people not involved in Nano Wrimo. So, yeah. I think it's a good idea. Go for it!
My own "plan..." I don't really have one. Just a vague idea about three people on a road trip that might involve breaking the rules of reality. Just whatever I can come up with, mostly, this being the first time I've done this... So my plan is to keep rushing ahead, hopefully without too much time to overthink things. That'll be a feat for me.

I'm currently at a very bad writing spot! I had the best halloween since 04, and I started nano in 05. I kinda wish i could just sleep the whole day away!
But now that I'm thinking... It might be a good way to start writing. The inner turmoil when you have to get something done but you're hungover as crap and your bed is a warm haven in a sea of cold ickyness. hrmmm...
