You know ... I think if I can murder my writer's block and get a good idea, I will do this. 50 000 isn't that much, my current story is already over that length ... but I've done it over about a year, not a month. Still ... KILL THE WRITER'S BLOCK!!!
EDIT: Oh yes, I forgot. 'Tis in the last term ... which end in exams ... still, I'm sucidal.
Oh, you're angry! Click your pen.

Yeah, I was thinking that it would be interesting to tie this in with YWS somehow but I have no idea what to do. And a note to you interested in trying or who are signed up, it is not necessasry to have a plot until you actually start writing. Sometimes it will form itself. Just get some characters and setting and run with it. Let the characters interact with each other and your story wil build itself. See, I have no plot ideas. Zero, nadda, nothing. I have only one half of a character developed and two possible settings. So I'm just hoping that, come November first, some miracle of inspiration strikes me and a plot appears. Good luck to everyone!
I haven't even started planning yet. I keep meaning to, but I also keep running into more homework. I have so much free time in November... But I kinda wanna spend it with Kev if I can. And I wanna relax.
It's fun!!!! It's fun!!! YAY!!! I'm having fun!!! I murdered some woman in a dark abandoned street with a fairy and left her body under a flickering street light ... and then the main character had a bad day at school. FUN!!!
Oh, you're angry! Click your pen.

4) Great. You’re all set. Now begin your novel-planning procrastination by reading through all the great advice and funny stories in the forums. Post some stories and questions of your own. Get excited. Get nervous. Eat lots of chocolate and pamper yourself in preparation for the fiction-fueled escapade to come.
I have now realized what NaNo is all about, and I have recognized the value of caffeine.
1701 words so far... I'm behind. And my writing absolutely sucks - but hey, we're looking for quantity, not quality, right? Right. It'll get better as I continue the story... I hope...
