Most of my NaNoisms are just bad misspellings, but every once in a while the sleep deprivation/ running-on-Halloween-candy gets the better of me.

“I’m so close, baby,” he grunted.
About time. She sped up her breathing to match his and clenched her fists. “Yes, right there…oh, yes hungry!”

Last night I hadn't slept more than four hours in the past two days, and was jetlagged besides. I thought Write or Die would be an excellent idea. Clearly I was wrong. Here's an excerpt. It was about this point that I started hallucinating and gave up and went to sleep:
Nate nodded, trying to look just as myerious anf informal.
Later I tried to fix the line, though it still made no sense in context:
Nate nodded, trying to look as mysterious as normal.

“Please release me from my chains, Namal.” She spat, finally meeting his triumphant eyes with a glare so full of hatred, she was surprised it didn't send him running. She could feel all of the rage she had been trying to suppress for months bubbling to the surface of her thoughts, threatening to overtake and consume her, and with it she could feel her magic, itching to be unleashed, though she wouldn't know what to do with it considering she only knows she's a Seer at this point and totally has no idea that she's going to destroy the world with powers that I haven't even figured out yet..."

I've been one walking NaNoism all day. Some of the funnier examples:
My editing attempt: immbile
Dear self: Learn to spell. Love, Me.
...I hope Alex likes ins.
Feather. FEATHER, GODDAMMIT.
Absolutely no Ents were harmed in the making of this novel. Not to mention "a an"? Someone edited in a hurry...
I caught that one on a read-through this morning, and I confess, I giggled like a five year old. What does something going "bum" sound like, anyway? Or don't I want to know?
...one hopes not *facepalm* Also, "were people"? Whut? In my defense, I think I was a bit stuck and ready to kill my MCs off by that point.
tongues
tonngs
tongs!
>.<
Forget about the Giant Killer Demon Slugs of Doom, it's ATTACK OF THE TYPOS!
...he did, did he? Are you quite sure about that, self? *headwall*
1. This sounds so much like a bad romance novel it's not even funny.
2. "Tendered" feelings? So, what, he auctioned them off to the highest bidder? That's not very romantic...
I shudder to think what I'll find when I'm actually properly awake ._.
ETA: This isn't exactly a NaNoism, but it should give you an idea of what my brain has been like for the past couple of days:
I don't think Alex likes me much. He later goes on to remark that whoever thought this stuff up must be on something. Heh. Sorry Alex XD

Being a nice lady, I'm censoring it a bit for the forums.
Did they do an eight o’clock service on Christmas Day? Would God be ever so slightly scornful if he took a massive file of freakishly detailed, stalker like notes about the lives of dead prostitutes into his holy abode? Or would he let it pass, seeing that the fact they were dead because of one of his own f**k -ups in creationism were the reason they were dead, and not likely to join him seeing that, you know, their souls had been sucked like frube tubes?
Again, he was over-thinking an absolute load of crap. He had the time to head down, just head on down and you’ll see when you get there!
A plan! Formulated!

Being Irish, my keyboard prefers the contraction o'. (Also, I've been crossing 'obtrusive' with 'abstruse' for the past few weeks now.)

Don't feel bad, though; the other day in class I read "spiral lock" as "sparkle cock". (I had Twilight on the brain, evidently.) We all make those mistakes sometimes. (Or, all the time, in my case...)

I don't have it anymore, but I once wrote the word although three times in one sentence. I tend to have this problem where I repeat words. I use an Alphasmart 3000, so it only shows four lines at a time, so I do that a lot. Darn it, I just did it again. I seriously didn't mean to do that. *headdesk*
