...You don't actually submit your work. You submit your word count. So as long as you understand digits, it's fine. I'm sure communication on the forums would be more difficult, though.

Hmm...I'm not sure, Taiyo. You could always ask!

No idea. 50k words is a novella if I'm not mistaken.

Yup. That's why they picked 50k words.

Anndd....my ideas are super scattered, so I'm planning on writing 50k words across a few potential projects with completely unrelated plots. Oh ya, and my art history journal since it's taking up all of my time this and next week. :gonk: (I bet I'll have 50k words by the end of my Journal, honestly).

I've got a fantasy story about a civil war. And other things. But mostly that.

The chances of actually finishing it are... not significant. X3; I just hit the Day 1 word count.

lol! It's alright. I've got plots just running rampant through my head. For better or worse, they'll all probably find their way into words. Soo...it'll be an interesting second half of November. Hopefully I'll at least finish something. >.<

That sounds like me. Probably the reason I started writing in the first place!

I wish you guys good luck in your endeavors. As for me, I'll probably write something simple. I know I won't be able to make it 50k so I'll settle with at least 2000 or just a little over that. It took all of my brain cells just to come up with something for Lise's contest and now my brain's shorted out :rofl: Maybe a love story of some sort. Cliche, I know :XP

:XD Well, it won't be the mushy lovey-dovey kind I assure you. It's a little dark but not like in fantasy/science fiction nor R-rated stuff. It's...difficult to explain so maybe dark isn't the right word. Maybe uncommon and slightly bleak is more like it. Well if I ever get to writing it I'll post it here so you can see what I mean :sweat:

haha ya...but I've gotten better. I just don't tell people what I'm working on until I'm mostly finished. It makes it more fun, too, 'cause then all my friends are like "whaaat? When did that happen!?" >D I just really hate it when people nag me about projects. It makes me want to do them less and less.

Recognizing what helps you concentrate on what you want to do is some help, at least?

Writing? What writing...

I asked what NaNoWriMo was, and we all got onto the subject of writing because of it.

Ah, right. I meant... I don't remember what I meant. I think I've gotten completely turned around.

Anyway. How's about that, ah, local weather effect? Or some other slightly more relevant topic. ;)

lol Yaaa. Just a little. I honestly didn't feel that embarrassed, though. More like "Whhaaattt is this craziness that just happened!? 0.o" lol I was so confused. But my teacher was understanding and she's obviously not gonna deduct points from that. And my group members were really helpful, too. :3

At least your teach was understanding. In University 101 today, my teacher told us about a girl who'd had her father murdered, so she didn't have a choice but to miss class, and the girl's professer wouldn't stop giving her shit about it, because he wouldn't take it as an excuse for an excused absence and let her take the test she'd missed. That's crap.

Oh my gosh. That's horrible. D; Ya. One of my group members was actually supposed to be at a Funeral this morning. But I guess she had to stay here because she had too many absences and the school wasn't going to excuse her for that. =[

Alex: Ya, I think I have a good idea. I've just been pushing myself too hard. Which, in full terms, means: I wasn't eating enough, and the things I was eating didn't have enough nutrition as well as not getting more than a few hours of sleep per week. And on top of them I'm on my period, so that totally screws with my system enough and I've been feeling overwhelmingly stressed the past few days, too. SOoooOoo. Basically everything except "oh, she must not do speeches very well."

Honestly, at first I thought I was just going to be sick and was in the process of asking to go get some water. Then everything went black and I couldn't steady myself in time. =/
