I have just done something stoopid ...

... I've promised [livejournal.com profile] stolensocks that I'm going to participate in the National Novel Writing Month. Erm, yes. I always wanted to write, but never found the time. Now I have to. Anybody else up for it?

So we can KIX each other's big fat lazy butts.

If we're going to be stupid we might as well be stupid together ;)

It's going to be fun. Insane, yes, but fun!

Imogen :D

see you on Y!M to talk about this?

I've a very helpful book for that sort of endeavour, Natalie Goldberg's Writing Down to the Bones

Wow! What have you done to your journal? Is this the bliss of a paid account, or something else?

And you know you have to give more details about this National Novel Writing Month. I'm up for anything that prods people to write.

yes, paid only. (erm.)

it's http://www.nanowrimo.org" (http://www.nanowrimo.org)

God knows I'll have more pressing things to do with my time then, but the experience would be nice ...

ditto, and yet it's so tempting.

Remind me again around October, when they open registration.

(This paid account thing is looking more and more attractive.)

I'm up for joining the stupidity. At least, I think I am.

I salute you, but I can't join you. I wish I could, but I don't think I could finish.

I'm also afraid I won't be able to finish. In November, I'll be working two part time jobs, training as a massage therapist, and working on this novel challenge. That said, I just managed to write 1758 words in an hour. I might just do it, if I plot the thing out in detail.

Adn if you look at the stats, then most of the people who started couldn't finish. It's all in the trying.

Tell me (much) more about it and I might be in. Which nation, by the way?
