Gah! *Pulls out hair* I can't make up my mind whether I want to do it or not. I think it'd be fun, and a really good thing to try, but at the same time I don't want to leave my current work in progress, for fear that I'll never go back to it. Mind you, I haven't written anything in that story for a month. :roll:

Suggestions, anyone?

Go for it. If you haven't written anything on your WIP in a while, you may need a break. Just have some fun with NaNo and it may end up getting you some great fresh ideas for you WIP by the time you get back to it.

I've just signed up. :D

I'm CassandraJ on NaNo, if anyone's remotely interested.

Yay! I'm all excited now. Off to do some research!

As you know Jack, I'm in it :-) (I woke up this morning and the first thing I did was sign up....)

I'm doing a vampire story that I've had in my head for years. It's pretty original, which is why I really like it. No boring vampire romances! Well, okay, yes, there are some. But the major plot is something I haven't seen before; I'm hoping it'll be good.

I forget what my screen name is (I picked some random, French one) La romantic or something. I always have something different everywhere. Since I'm on two forums (And at the other, everyone knows me as Alice) I didn't want to confuse anyone with names, so I just picked an unused one...

Oh, and yea, I'M EXCITED!

I'm CaptainTwig over there, if anyone needs any moral support.

You can do it Imp!! Not many people make it their first year (I know I sure didn't!), but the second time around you know exactly how hard it is and what you need to do to win. I think you should go for it! :)

Thanks Skye for encouragement. ...You never know - I might try again and manage to finish.

On the off chance that I do...you can fine me with inverted initials as JC Evers

I'm just going to add, like, EVERYONE who's posted their names on NaNo as my writing buddies, kay? So don't be alarmed if it says you're friends with some weird CassandraJ person....;)

I'm over there too. Signed up as soon as I could without missing a whole night of sleep. I got pretty annoyed when I kept refreshing and at one in the morning it still hadn't allowed sign-ups... hehe.

If anyone's interested, my name is the same as here. I'm adding you all too. ;)
