Heck yes I am! I'm all pumped up for it really, my first year was last year and I won so now I want to win again. Makes me feel accomplished and what not.
Of course, I haven't actually looked at my NaNo for months. It's got cobwebs and dust all over it, probably a few moth holes to add to it's plot hole count as well.
Good thing I saw this thread, I need to think of my plot for NaNo 07! ^_^
I cannot name this I cannot explain this and I really don't want to just call me shameless. -Ani Di Franco "Shameless"
Of COURSE I'm doing NaNoWriMo this year. I only found out about it in September (of all convenient months) last year, and then life was hectic in November, so I'm counting down until wrimo07! Even if it does include (as everyone seems to be saying) lack of sleep, isolation, and ignorance of homework ^_^ This November, I plan to LIVE in the local coffeeshops and library (because goodness knows I'm too distracted at home).
This is going to be my first year trying it...and I'm already thinking about what I'm going to do....I want to finish POD first, cuz I feel bad dropping it for a month, but if I don't I'll pick it back up. Anyways, yeah, my NaNo's gonna majorly cool this year.
I'm thinking about doing a memoir as well Clau =D. They're not that much different than writing a regular book, you just happen to be telling your own story...or so my mom says...she's big into memoirs...especially asian ones...Oh well =D
So yeah...I have a whole list of possible idea's, but that one's my most likely...right now...
=D
But that is not the question. Why we are here, that is the question. And we are blessed in this, that we happen to know the answer. Yes, in this immense confusion one thing alone is clear. We are waiting for Godot to come. -Beckett
i'm definitly doing it. I can't live with out chaos(as is evident by the fact that I'm doing my own mini NaNo right now, at the same time I'm doing scriptfrenzy, oh well at least it's summer break now and I don't have too much else to do)
Definitely want to do it! I'm thinking about doing a NaNo in July as well, just in case I don't have time for any in November...
No idea what I'll write about for either idea. Perhaps I could write a novel based on my script frenzy for July, or I could start that Pirates story again... hmm.
Anyways, November!! Really want to do it, even though I'm starting uni in October. I figure I'd like to get 60k just to up the challenge a bit, but if I'm too swamped by homework, coursework, essays etc. then school stuff takes priority - after all, if I fail a year now, I can't just take retakes. This is my degree we're talking about!
Hm, also, I think I'd like to do a mixture of French and German for NaNo. Or just one. Or... maybe Japanese as well. Anyway, I'd like to be able to do it and be able to study at the same time. =P
novels terrify me. So much....time...that you invest. Idk... If I can come up with a good plot idea, and maybe an outline, I might give it a shot...Though I've never even attempted writing a novel before
The good parts of a book may be only something a writer is lucky enough to overhear or it may be the wreck of his whole damn life — and one is as good as the other.

Maybe. I don't know for sure, yet, since I'll have 15 units next semester, and I have no idea what living situation will be... so we'll see! i would at least like to beat my pitiful showing from last year, but then again, I've never been a novel-writing person.
Maybe I could do a novel of poetry? hmm.

No, it's not that you didn't succeed. You accomplished a lot, but, if you want to touch people, don't concentrate so much on rhyme and metre. Think more about what you want to say instead of how you're saying it. — LCDR Geordi La Forge
This'll be my second NaNo challenge this year!
