What are you writing for NaNoWriMo? Are you pantsing or planning or doing something in between? Or perhaps you're rebelling this year and writing a series of short stories or poems instead of a novel!
I'm participating as a Rebel this year. I'll be working on two different stories, but only one of them is in its first draft. (That's the Chosen Grandma story, and I'll only be writing 1500 words a week.) The other story is the Story Formerly Known as The Book Man, and I'm trying to finish revising the current draft.

I'm participating traditionally this year. I actually wasn't planning to write a novel for NaNo this year, but then I read the first line of a book synopsis on Amazon a couple weeks ago that sparked an idea for one. My brain took off with it and now I have a whole new story in my head and I have to do something with it. Perfect timing for NaNo!
It'll be a YA Sci-Fi called "Wake up". 17-year-old Natalie gets jolted into a different world than the perfect one she's always known, and learns that she's been living in a virtual reality.
In reality, the world has been taken over by robots who have been trapping humans in a virtual reality while they learn to reprogram themselves to be able to kill humans, which they've finally managed to do.
Now, Natalie's only ally is Sam, the teenage renegade who brought her out, and the other survivors who run with him. Their only mission is to bring down the robots before they kill them all, but the truth behind the invasion is far deeper and more twisted than they ever expected, and to finally bring it all to an end, they'll have to risk everything. -
I'm going to finish Juno Blackwood and start The Littlesby Witches.

I'm working on my Detective Story (a working title in progress).

I'm mostly pant sing it, as usual! But I have a vague idea written down this time and the characters. I'm going for the traditional goal!
I even have a title. It's supposed to be a horror novel but it will probably end up being ridiculous and stuff. XP it's called Practical Imps. Maybe the title will change but I like it for now Cx -
I'm going to try to finish the draft of my current project! I expect it to be less than 50k total, and I've already started it, so I'm cheating quite a bit here as well xD

@Lauren2010 REBELLING, not cheating.
Wow, it sounds like there are some cool novels getting written this November! @Holysocks Practical Imps does sound kind of humorous to me from the title, but I guess we'll see where you take it! -
Everyone knows my crap story that'll hopefully go over 50k if I'm committed enough. That's not like regular rebel though, more like too committed storm trooper.

I'm a rebel, whatever that means. But it sounds fun.
I'm doing two novels:
The long-awaited novel about Crystal, a female psychopath who is destined to save the universe from the shadowdemon king - though she doesn't particularly like it. Got the entire ending planned out and everything mwuahahaha >:3
Then there's Reality, but people in PlanMo know what that is lol -
I'm also a rebel! I'm hoping to finish the first draft of my new novel When I was Anna. I was at 29500ish at the start of the month and I'm shooting for 65k-ish total
I've blabbed about it on my wall, but it's a YA contemporary romance about a girl who is afraid to talk to her crush so she creates a fake profile on a chatting app and starts talking to him (except he doesn't know it's really her) leading to #dramaaaa
I'm also 100% pantsing. I know the big plot points and that's all! -
I'm participating traditionally, and I'm super hyped since this is my first NaNo. I planned the whole thing out, top to bottom, inside and out. It's called A Heart for a Heart, and a fair amount of information is in the PlanMo club forums.
I'm not sure if I can make the 50k but I'm certainly going to try my hardest! Good luck to everyone else, your stories all sound amazing!

I'll be doing NaNo traditionally this year. To be honest, all I know about my novel is that it is temporarily entitled January (and I have a few plot ideas I'm going to retry - but I didn't plan a whole lot on this one). I'm playing around with different narrating voices in this one, so that should be fun.
This novel is mostly a venting exercise for me, so not something I see continuing on for a long time (but I'm hoping it will turn into something like that). I haven't written in a while, but I'm shooting for that 50k.
