Here's for a first-week checkup! Are you keeping up with word counts? Where do you currently stand? Is your novel going the direction you expected? Discussion begins . . . now!
I'm only here to give your thread a slight boost. Perhaps you, dear SJ Morning Sun, could tell us a bit about your own progress (if applicable)?
Fair enough, Website Examiner! I'm at 21,206 words, far ahead of where I thought I'd be and the story is completely different than I anticipated. :-)
See, I was hoping for such optimistic tones.
Are you posting the work or is it supposed to be written offline?
I was going to have a go at this. How many words required? I might give it a go anyway.
Wow SJMoringSun you are doing great. I'm just where I need to be for today. But I'm still having trouble writing. It's really difficult for me to come up with unique and believable concepts because I'm writing a dystopic science fiction story and I don't want it to be too far-fetched.
I do have a question about how you write though, this is my first time doing nanowrimo.
So do you try to get words down? Or do you try to make cohesive story-lines free of errors?
Right now I'm writing feverishly, not looking back, just keep moving forward. I've never written something this long before and I'm not sure what type of pacing is the best.
Molometer: For the full rules/information, visit www.nanowrimo.org. I wouldn't post it online, just for the sake of keeping your work protected! This isn't related to HubPages, though it's been pointed out that your work could be used in the Hub Patron of the Arts contest.

So how is it going for everyone? Are the words just flowing or are staring at a blank document praying for inspiration?I'm doing the latter and procrastinating in Hubpage forums.

Anyone else doing the NaNoWriMo this year? I've been meaning to but I keep having babies in November. This year, I'm in!

It just occurred to me that it's almost November. I know an army of excellent hubpages writers undertook this contest last year. What about now?

There might have been other posts about naNoWrimo posted which I missed. But anyway, is anybody doing it? If so, maybe we can get our own Hubpages NaNoWriMo support group going. 50 000 words in a month is a big ask and we need to cheer each other on!

Is anyone here doing NaNoWriMo this year? I've just registered: http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/participant … eupdorothy

Have you heard of NaNoWriMo? Are you participating?The silly sounding acronym is short for National Novel Writing Month. It's a commitment to write 50,000 words in November.As I write this, it's Nov. 2, so that requires writing about 1800 words a day. It isn't a contest per se, just a...
