Not that any of us are feeling frustrated about our NaNoWriMo projects so early on, right? Of course not! *bangs head on desk* Post here if you think that any of your fellow Mississippians can help you out of a difficult corner--of if you think you can help someone who has posted here. Good luck, everyone--let's all hit 50,000 words!

I lived in MS for two years, is that good enough? :O) I've actually done well in that my story has taken a life of it's own. It's going in a place that I hadn'd intended it to, but I'm going to have to make a tough decision soon, and I'm not sure which way to go. My MC was being stalked by a murderous psycho but put his plans on hold when the police got involved. Time has passed and now the MC has a love interest. So is he the murderous psycho or does the murderous psycho just reemerge. Decisions, decisions... Anyway, I hope all of you Mississippians are having plot problems few and far between!

My only problem is that I've lost the will to write over the past few days and at around 3000 words I'm a good bit behind. I think part of my problem is distractions.

Delak, have you considered joining a group for "word wars?" I know that they've helped me get over the hump in the past. I can hook you up with a good group if you're interested.
Speaking of being behind, getting sick over the weekend slowed me down a lot! I am going to have to write my little fingers to the bone to get caught up, but I am going to do it!

Awesome! Contact me at LoupGarouTFTs (Yahoo!) or LoupGarouTFT (AIM) and I'll see about getting you an invite. Just make sure you mention NaNoWriMo when you get in touch.

Hello everyone,
I am posting on here for one reason and one reason alone. After this past year's NaNoWriMo I became inspired by the effort which Seatle made in achieving the largest combined wordcount in the world (16,757,473 total combined words to be exact). It is that effort that has sparked my vision.
I say that we, the combined elite writers of Mississippi, ban together in combining our wordcounts for November '08 to defeat the superpower of Seatle!
All I need from you is your NaNo account name, an email adress, and a will to commit to the word count goals you set (whether that is 1 word, 50k to win, or whatever more). Please post that information on here so I may add you to the roster for a contribution in the pot of wordcounts.
Also, anyone who would like to help me in gathering other prospective WriMos within the state, or those that would compete for our state from the outside. Please, oh please give me their information as well. Any help will be appreciated in the utmost of fashions.
We can most definitely do this as the Mississippi NaNoWriMo Elite!
