It's that time again! Where do you stand?

I'm not going to do 50k, but I might try getting ahead in my project with maybe 15-20k. That is already a huge amount for me!

Good luck for those who are doing it, and a relaxing November for those who aren't!

Yep, I'm doing it! This is going to be my seventh (seriously, wow) year doing NaNo, and hopefully my third year winning :P

Best of luck to all the rest!

No, I'm not doing it but I will fully support and cheer on those who have decided to take on this mighty task!

Doing it! This will be my third, and I'm resuming it after talking a break for three years, so we'll see how this goes.

*is glad she's not the only one who voted no*

Unfortunately exams kind of make doing NaNo impossible, assuming I don't want to totally flunk out XD. But I think from past experience NaNo's not really for me.
if we wait until we're ready
we'll be waiting

I'm sure there are some people trying to do LMS and NaNo, but I'm not that crazy. :D

Regardless, good luck to all!

Kind of. I'm doing a poetry project. And I've already started. I just like having a big project during November because everyone else does XD

50k is too much for me in one month, so I'm going to try to get my current WIP to 50k (and preferable past). Right now it's sitting around 26k. I want to have it done before I go home for Christmas, so November might just prove to be the kick in the butt it needs :)

In my mind, "yes" means "I plan to", even if something happens and you don't actually finish it. :) So just say yes! I'm not going to hunt you down if you said yes and changed your mind. ;)

Hard question...

I plan on doing it, but I won't be writing an actual story. Since I would like to up my essay writing skills, I will try to write essays on a particular topic this month. lol There is no genre on the NaNo site for non-fiction I don't think, though. omg, I know it sounds boring
