Look over there! The thing! On the sidebar!
Yeah. I’m trying NaNoWriMo. Again. This time I’m breaking the rules and going for a books on an existing project. My book, tentatively titled Ghost Train to New Orleans (sequel to The Shambling Guide to New York City), is 8k in, and I am using NaNoWriMo in hopes to get to 60k. My wordcount there at the right is the honest NaNo count, starting with the words I wrote today. I’m cheating in that the project is started, but I am NOT considering I have an 8k word start. I donated to NaNoWriMo, got my donor halo, and I’m off and running.
Who’s with me?


I’m with you!
I’m also writing on a project that was already started, but am not counting the words that were written before the day.
YEAH YOU ARE, AJ. *high five*
I’m in for my first year, going strong so far (yeah, the whole 1 day … )!
I’m with you too! Same deal; started with a few thousand words that don’t count. Hopefully going to end above 60K+
..and by the way, I just discovered ISBW and really dig it!
I’m in and going strong with a novel project that I have intentionally held until November. The delay allowed me to create one hella-detailed outline. I took Nov. 1st off work to get a head start and I’m past 10k now.
I’d never be that far if someone hadn’t told me (repeatedly) that I’m allowed to suck. Thanks Mur.
