Then script writing isn't for you. You can stick with novels.

It's a graphic novel script, all that stuff is still there. And Nemo, it's the same plot as my NaNo from last year, but I'm changing the format, and the setting, and the flow, so I basically need to start from scratch, and I figured this was as good a time as any to do so.

Oh, nice! At least you have a plot figured out, so that should help some. Good luck with it! ^_^

Bearzy: Oh I'm still trying to get myself to edit mine. But I kinda lost interest... it's still in the back of my mind poking me with a long pointed stick going 'ediiiiiit me!'

Xuv: Me too! =] I'm a Novel person too! :)

I like novel way of embelishments, but not to the extent of 80% meaningless description and left only 20% of real content. x.x Unless details like that matters.

See, I like to fully understand settings and the way characters are dressed, and why they're dressed that way, but that stuff is boring to read, so I draw it. Tada! Graphic Novels! (Also, because a lot of what I'm writing will be condensed into pictures, I can embellish on details, as mental notes to myself, and that'll help with my wordcount.)

I personally LOVE graphic novels. I think graphic novels are a good mix of words and pictures.
But still, you need to put down some kinds of keywords of the details incase you forget it. Still use words though.

I draw images, for example a simple greek peplos. Some details are too small to show or hidden in that angle like...
the button be gold color, but it is actually metal(to express the poverty and yet want to show gold effect... underlying message of the person's background.). Or even the type of cloth, linen or cotton? Can't really draw out the difference, words is easier.

I always design my character's clothing, only major and minor characters that I like though. XD

You sound like you do really cool stuff. I don't have much gift with imagery when it comes to words.

Nope, I am awful with grammar and vocabulary. I tends to mush up a lot of things, and find out that the whole paragraph of one hundred words describing what my character wears. XD

I just love details. So I write about it, I draw it out.

I know this is kinda last minute.

I've decided to participate in camp in april. Who's participating and would anyone want to be in a cabin with me, if they haven't already picked one yet?

If I wasn't already in a full cabin, I'd say yes! But I'll be here for ya if you need extra encouragement! ^_^

Basically the cabin is just a place to get extra support and it's 6 people per cabin, but I've already been placed in one, and I like it so I can't be put into another one because I don't wanna leave the one that I'm already in.

From the Camp NaNoWriMo help page:

Quote:
What is a cabin, and do I have to be in one?

A cabin is comprised of up to five other campers for you to communicate and share encouragement with during the month. They will be assigned to your cabin based on the preferences you select in Cabin Settings!

As participants log in and indicate their preferences leading up to the start of the month, cabins will be assigned on a rolling basis. Once your cabin is ready, you’ll see “Cabin Message Board” appear under My Cabin.

Or, if you’d rather enjoy your noveling retreat solo-style, you can choose not to participate in a cabin; just indicate that preference in your Cabin Settings.

If at some point during the month you wish to be removed from your cabin, there is an “opt out” at the bottom of the Message Board. Once you leave your cabin, you cannot return to it.

Ugh! I'm behind too! It's the 2nd here now - I was on holiday for a few days, and it threw me off. Hoping I can get in the writing mood today. I'm not going for the full 50k... so I only have like less than 2k words to write. So that's not too bad at least.
