Who knows? Perhaps it will become a masterpiece
Okay, I signed up to do a stint on NaNoWriMo, so bear with me in November while I attempt to write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. I'm going to try to keep doing the blog thing too, if only as a collection of interesting bits I come across along the way. I want to try the palimpsest-world-building idea (at the end of the post, below) beforehand: I'll write a flash fiction thing every day, hopefully, so that I'll have this pile of interesting glimpses into my new novel's world by the time NaNoWriMo starts on November 1st. Maybe it won't all be crap when I'm done on November 30th.
I'll be there under the username Heatherdoodle. Wish me luck!

PS. I'm posting my efforts here...

We at my job here in Brooklyn have done a couple of collaborative NaNoWriMos....to mixed effect.
Good luck with your NaNo project - we have less than a week to go now. :)
G'luck! :-)
well, you got me to sign up . . . I look forward to seeing your work!
Doing that as well. Did it last year and found it was addictive.
Good luck with it and MOST IMPORTANT THING OF ALL: have fun.
I've signed up for NaNoWriMo the past two years, but alas! A grad school student's schedule is not really able to accomodate that kind of commitment. Maybe next year for me!
Best of luck to you!
Good.
You NEED to write a novel.
Oh yea, Hi, I'm Todd!
-mE!
