    So JulNoWriMo has been a small YWS event. It plays similarly to NaNoWriMo, but it's in July. And doesn't get as much hype since it's laidback. Who's thinking of doing it? I'll probably try since NaNo this last year failed miserably! If not, do you have other plans for writing projects?

    I'm debating. I might not go for the full 50k, but we'll see.


    silentpages replied · Jun 4, 2011

    Tempting... Very tempting. But I think that I'll probably be focusing more on revision of a novel/novels, and stuff like that.

    We're halfway through! How's everyone doing? Hope you're still keeping at it! And it's still not too late to catch up (or get ahead)!

    silentpages replied · Apr 15, 2011

    I've got five pages left. ^^ I might get it done tonight, or maybe not... Prom is tomorrow, so... Yeah. XD


    Elinor replied · Apr 16, 2011

    I'm on page 47! Catching up!

    We officially have 10 days (TEN DAYS) 'til NaPoWriMo and Script Frenzy begin! Which one will you participate in? Are you ready?

    Lumi replied · Mar 22, 2011

    NaPo!


    Elinor replied · Mar 22, 2011

    Both! :)


    silentpages replied · Mar 22, 2011

    Script Frenzy, for the first time. ^^ I'm excited.


    Caligula's Launderette replied · Mar 24, 2011

    Considering I suck at writing scripts, NaPo for me. :D


    geekchic replied · Mar 25, 2011

    I will attempt both but I will probably only finish NaPo. :)

    This is it! The laaast few hours of NaNo. Who's gonna finish today? Who's already done? How many winners do we have?! Eeeeeeeee!

    Vanadis replied · Nov 30, 2010

    We have a winner here! Oddly enough.


    ultraviolet replied · Nov 30, 2010

    I will win... if it kills me... which is just might. Just kidding. I only have like 1,500 left, which isn't so bad. But I'm excited! Winner's Portal here I come!


    silentpages replied · Dec 1, 2010

    I'm done with one of them, and just have a little ways to go on the other. ^^ 100,000 words, here I come!


    silentpages replied · Dec 1, 2010

    DONE! 100,304 words all together. >.<


    ultraviolet replied · Dec 1, 2010

    I just finished! I'm so excited - my first NaNo!


  • Vanadis replied · Nov 16, 2010

    I'm at like 26,300 or something... bleeeh. I got burnt out on one novel and had to start another or I'd have DIED. In some horrible NaNo-fail-manner.


    Elinor replied · Nov 16, 2010

    I'm at 28k!

    AHHHHHH!!!!! I'm 8k behind! Anyone else with me? (I hope) Sorry for the caps--this is the first year I've had trouble keeping up.

    JabberHut replied · Nov 16, 2010

    Yup! Only it's more than 8k. XD I think I'll be finishing this over winter break or some other time when I'm not completely swamped with homework.


    ultraviolet replied · Nov 16, 2010

    I'm behind, but only by a few thousand. But stick to it, you can do it!


  • silentpages replied · Nov 15, 2010

    Awww! XD Sankyoo verymuch. ^^

    For those of you who AREN'T insane... Or at least are relatively less insane than I...
    How you doin'? What's your word count? ^^

    Waterlilygirl replied · Nov 15, 2010

    Me? *hides in a dark hole* Don't even get me started.


  • silentpages replied · Nov 8, 2010

    I'm a quarter way to my goal of 100,000 words at 25,277. >.< Hurrah!


    Vanadis replied · Nov 9, 2010

    Anyone else thankful for the setting-of-hours back tonight?
    In this way, we garner EXTRA writing time! >.<

    ultraviolet replied · Nov 7, 2010

    I'm especially happy 'cause I pulled an all-nighter at my church lock-in, and the extra sleep will do me good. Really good, 'cause I still want to get another 1,000 in tonight (we'll see. I'm at least finishing this one scene.)


    Vanadis replied · Nov 10, 2010

    Unless you live in Guam. We don't do daylight savings. :/



But answer me this: how can a story end happily if there is no love?
