Sharon Atkinson (darkened_angel) Hi all, I am Darkangel or you can call me Sharon. This is also my first time attempting NaNoWriMo, it's hard finding time to write when you work full time, so I can only hope to do my best.

Your welcome! it seems like all of us first-timers! I think that is really good, because we can understand each other a lot and what we are all going though. I hope fore some people that have experience though, so that we can all types of WriMo's!

Hi, everyone,

I'm David. You can call me anything you think is appropriate ;)

I am attempting NaNoWriMo for the first time. I started my book on Nov 1 but due to work commitments and a new personal life, I only have 4884 words written. I hope, with a quiet holiday, I can increase that.

I might need a lot of help and support.

Thanks for listening.


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

You can do it David! just sit you butt down and type XD


message 23: by Lynne (new)

Lynne Hi everyone,
This is my first year for NANOWRIMO. I am making a slow start of it and I am thrilled to find this group. Good luck to everyone.


message 24: by Mary (new)

Mary Findley | 51 comments Hi! I know it's almost halfway through Nano, but I just discovered this group! This is my first Nano, and I am writing the sequel to my Steampunk Literary Tribute A Dodge, a Twist and a Tobacconist. I have 32830 words so far. The first book was just over 100,000, so I know 50,000 won't finish this, but I am encouraged so far. The tentative title is The Professor, the Puppet and the Poet.

message 27: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (aldersoj40hotmailcom) | 21 comments My passion (besides books) is cooking--which may account for my being fat. However, as an adult I embraced both Kosher and Vegetarianism and as a result I have to cook for myself and my mom (with whom I live). By sheer genius my sister picked up a huge encyclopedia of vegetarian food and as a result I have lots of recipes at my fingertips. Tonight I am fixing a "Festive Jalousy"--although I'd never heard of it until I made my first. Well, I hope that's not too much.


message 28: by [deleted user] (new)

message 32: by _rebeccab (new)

_rebeccab | 8 comments Hey, I'm Rebecca. This is my first NaNoWriMo and my first time writing orignal fiction since high school. I hadn't really sat down and written anything in a few years so the start of November was a bit of a shock for me.

I'm writing a Fantasy novel, currently sitting pretty at around 33K, but my ultimate goal is for 80K (by the first week of December I think).

It's awesome to see a Goodreads group devoted to this!


message 33: by [deleted user] (new)

:D Welcome Rebecca! I have a cousin with your name... :3 And I love fiction, my story is fiction too! and ya since my computer crashed i've had plenty of time to spend here. I hope you get that 80K! 33 is pretty good you still have like half of the month and that's a lot of words! Good job!


message 34: by Karena (new)

Karena (karenafagan) Hi. My first year doing NaNo. So far I'm at 26699 word count. I'm writing urban fantasy. No werewolves (Shapeshifters which are completely different) or vampires. I'm having a lot of fun doing it and learning a bit about myself too.

Penny Goodearl | 2 comments Hi everyone. This is my second year doing Nano. Didn't quite make it last time despite plans etc. This year I have made no plans beyond a title and spend my writing time following my characters around which is actually very liberating.

My name is Selena and this is my second NaNo. Last year's project was something that's been simmering in my head for many years that I finally decided to write. As is this one, come to that, but my aunt's also been after me to write this one. Said project should be at 30K if I can get time to write tonight.

:D hi and welcome! :) I'm the same with some stories but i decided to write one of me most recent idea. What's genre is yours in?
