It's true.
Go ahead, tell me I'm crazy. But I actually think I have a better chance at winning now.
My last attempt was a bad idea. This one actually has major potential for real life novel-dom. I know we all say that about our novels, but I feel this one's heartbeat.
I couldn't keep my old stuff, it doesn't fit. At all.
So if i write 4,800 words every day, I can do it.
And I think this year might be the year.
Wish me luck!

My first NaNo novel was written in 10 days (seriously, look at the day I signed up on my info to the left). It's doable!

Word count-wise... couldn't a dinosaur eat the other characters and homes and cities and stuff, and then new novel begins? Just a suggestion. ;-)

I didn't have a plot or characters. i was attempting an autobiography to pass off as a novel. no dice. i stink at nonfiction. that's what i get for trying to cheat the system. :)

Holy cow! Good luck! Anything is possible with determination and drive. I'm sure you'll get the 50,000 since you are feeling so positive about your new direction!
