And, after all, you're a pantser, and NaNo requires a lot of that.Brooke R.

I've never written with a deadline or word count in mind, so I've never disappointed myself. But I also lose out on commiserating with other participators.Theresa Milsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477761307315565259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8223068889792863979.post-16855505863375146982011-08-17T14:55:55.782-05:002011-08-17T14:55:55.782-05:00I bet real camp was a whole lot more fun.

Maybe I should at least start and get something written on this summer novel I wanted to write. I think its going to end up being my November Nano in the end. *sigh* I miss writing.<br /><br />The kids go back to school next week though!

The way you write is kind of like dining at a fine restaurant whereas the whole scheduled Word Count thing of NaNoWriMo is like buffet style Chuck-A-Rama. I'd go to the fine dining place way ahead of the buffet trough.
