Earlier tonight, I signed up for NaNoWriMo 2009. For those who haven't heard of NaNoWriMo, it's a US-established but worldwide writing lark, whereby you have to write 50,000 words in exactly one month (that month being November; it's an annual event). I wrote the first draft of To All Appearance, Dead for NaNo 2005, so I know it's a good idea to do it. I just haven't done it since. But a few people from my R/L writing group are doing it, so we can support each other, and I'm sure there'll be others from LJ communities/GO communities who'll be doing it as well. At the moment, I've no idea if November will be busy or not workwise for me, but I was actually super-busy in November 2005, and I still managed it, so there are no excuses really.

I just have to decide what I'm going to write, but there are four weeks to think about that before NaNo starts. And if I complete NaNo, that'll mean I'll have written drafts of three novels in four months, which is no bad thing. It's always good to have first drafts to polish, improve and rewrite.

Is anyone else from my flist doing NaNo this year?
