Its less than a week... are you ready?
Its less than a week until NaNoWroMo starts! How many of you are ready? Are there still those like me who still only have a vague idea of what they are doing? Don't worry, I'm almost done with mine (Not that any of you care.) But what about everyone here? ARe you guys ready or is too soon for you?

Please take a look at these and tell me what you think. Most of the chapters aren't long and I'm lacking critiques. The chapter(s) in bold are my newest ones.

November 1st -- my birthday <sigh> Why did I do this to myself? A birthday is supposed to be a happy occassion, not a day for one to torture oneself with the promise of 30 days of sheer madness, leading to literary meltdown. Still, I'm not getting any younger so I may as well begin the project that will make me a millionaire now

I've had my idea since I was first told to think of one. I can't wait!

I'm ready. Have been for awhile now. All I had to do was decide on was which idea I was going to use. Now that I have it, it is all smooth sailing.

We need a plot?
oops....
I truly have no idea what I'm going to do. I have less than what I had when I started.

Define "ready." 
I have the main characters, a bare-bones idea of the plot and story arc, and a title. Oh, and a nifty book cover. |

Eh, i've got most of the character names, except for one of the very main characters last names. I'm thinking of not even writing it. He's one of those guys that's just... you know... kind of "there", and everyone knows of him, but no one really knows him... did that make any sense? I've got a vague plot outline... I have one aspect planned out, but the real test will be coming up with the rest...
Most Sincerely,
JL Hartfield

I'm screwed.
I've been to busy to think about it too much. And I really need to work on it a lot more.

Not only do I only have a vague idea what I'm writing about, I also have a 6 page history essay due in early November. Ugh.

Ready? Hah! Not hardly. I've been thinking of reattempting a story idea that I gave up on before, but I'm still undecided.
