It's okay I don't mind. What's important to me is that I'm proud of what I've written, and I am so far.

But not so proud that you'll ruin pride in having Forum Post continuity?

So uh, soup and I are hosting this thingamajig kind of like Camp NaNoWriMo here on Scratch. (Actually it's pretty much exactly like Camp NaNo, except since I am restricted to the use of Scratch and Gmail I can't do the real one.)

It's pretty simple. The premise of NaNoWriMo, a rather interesting abbreviation of National Novel Writing Month (officially November, but they've got other ones in the summer and stuff--hence, Camp NaNo): you try to write a novel in one month.

No pressure or anything, yes?

Except this is much easier to do, since school is going to be starting and
Wait hold on a second, I only have a little over two weeks of summer vacation left!! Nonononono!!!
all that. It starts tomorrow (or today, depending on your timezone)--Wednesday, August 1, 2012--and you have until the last day of the month to finish.

However!!

Unlike the 50,000 word rule on NaNo, the rule here is /at least/ 10k, and you can set your own goal to be higher than that.

Also, feel free to post excerpts of your novel here and seek advice.

What Counts
Any collection of short stories or novel chapters, in poetry or prose, that, altogether, adds up to 10,000 words or more. Which isn't /that/ much if you're working at this for a month really.

Signup Sheet
[Name] Don'tpushmei'malreadyfalling
[Novel Title] Undetermined
[Word Count Goal] 10 000 +
[Opinions on Global Warming]* It's stupid and i hate it
[Excerpt (optional)]the

*loljk

Alrighty no one's going to sign up for this I bet but whatever k!
Or if they do won't follow through, since that's the spirit of Camp NaNo
Happy writing!

Re: N.I. Writing Challenge (unofficial and stupid name!)

I think it's so great that you're doing this! 10,000 words is a lofty goal. Good luck. And just remember: it's not about the number of words, it's about choosing the right words. So sometimes the word count gets lower (especially while editing.)

It's about the word count in these challenges.
