As much as I'd like to be part of the madness this year, I must sit out this year - no matter that the mad side of my brain is telling me I should do NaNo :)J.L.

I have a good habit of spending around two hours on my writing during the week, cut up into pieces and lots more hours on weekends.

Like you said, it's about churning out a good chunk of your manuscript and doing it in solidarity with an amazing writing community.<br /><br />Good luck! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1598482777681428179.post-45447434259631083252012-10-22T14:36:39.724-04:002012-10-22T14:36:39.724-04:00I'm going to be trying it out the first time t...I'm going to be trying it out the first time this November, hope I have a good experience!

I can write 50,000 words in a few days if I feel the need, though I usually don't.<br /><br />Anyway, I have something much better than Nano going on, which will be unveiled soon.PT Dillowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394481476862013009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1598482777681428179.post-72358696559225037742012-10-22T09:06:11.949-04:002012-10-22T09:06:11.949-04:00Don't let it get the best of you!
