Hey, this is Barry / GreenMan. My brother is participating this year for his first time. He's down in Warren, MI and, as far as I know, hasn't joined a region. I invite you (unbeknownst to him) to add him as a writing buddy. Yeah, okay, I'll let him know. But he could probably use some encouraging words from us "veterans." Thanks and good luck to everyone.
Barry

Very cool! I will definitely add him. I'm so glad to see that you're still participating even though you're away. I've definitely been thinking of you - you're missed!

Thanks Barry. I need all of the added support that I can get. As you know (but these people don't) that writing a novel has been a dream of mine ever since you encouraged me to read for fun (still, as you know, the greatest gift that anyone has ever given me). I keep stating that NaNoWriMo appears to be the flame that I need to be placed under my rear. I just need people to fan it from time to time (fan the flame, not my rear).

Ooh! Welcome!
How awesome that you're finally writing your novel! I've wanted to finish one for over ten years. Last year was my first NaNo attempt, and I just finished the novel in September. It's such an amazing high. You'll see! :)

When I compare my word count to yours, I'm not so sure you're the one who needs the support. You're off to an awesome start.

I also saw your wordcount so far and said "He'll be just fine." But whenever you get stuck, you come to us and we'll [kick your butt / cheer for you / drive you nuts]. :)
