    It's time!

    Yes, it's officially that time of year--NaNoWriMo!

    Sign up's begin today (although apparently they aren't quite ready this morning), and writing will start Nov. 1. A reminder for people with accounts from previous years--you will still need to register for 2006.

    When the boards open, I'll be setting up the WritingForums.com Team thread again, so don't forget to drop in and let us know you're joining the madness. (I'll be sure to post a link here).

    I hope to see a lot of familiar faces from here! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

    Good luck to everyone, happy plotting!

    I've been waiting for the site to update all day and it hasn't! I'm getting really impatient. It's my first year, and I'm so excited. How many years have you done it, Valeca?

    3rd year for me, 4th nano novel. I did two the first year...but only 'cause I'm insane.

    Yeah, it's hard waiting, but everything should be up and running by midnight tonight (likely before then, though). 42,000 people signed up in 2004, an estimated 55,000 in 2005, so I'd expect there to be a crash or two before things run smoothly in 2006.

    hah, a crash or two? They'll probably run out of bandwidth.

    I want to do two novels. I have two story ideas, and I can't wait another whole year just to write about the second one!

    I have been waiting for the site to update, checking every now and then from university during the long course of the day. It's already October the 2nd at my place...

    Well, nothing's happened yet - maybe we're all a bit impatient? (or they're in some wierd time zone? )

    Anti-up.

    Edit: In case you want to find the team link on your own, we're listed under Writing Groups and Clubs found about halfway down the main forum page.
