I'm doing Camp! :-D I'm doing 40,000 words... 0.0 Which is the highest I've gone yet in a Nano thing. And I'm also doing a genre I haven't done yet: Sci-fi/Dystopian. I'm a bit nervous... I've always written fantasy before now, so... It's a bit of a scary prospect. :-P I know I am writing one not for NaNoWriMo and I love it!!!

I'm participating in Camp NaNoWriMo for the first time this coming month!! Yay!! I'm so excited!! I'll be working on a fantasy story called Diamond Dark; sequel to Silver Rose, which some of you are beta reading, I believe! As of now, I have a 20,000 word count. And I hope to write 20,000 more words during camp!

I'll be doing Camp NaNoWriMo for the first time next month! I'll be working on Ransom, about Skylar and Joseph, and I'm aiming for 50,000 words- or however many it takes me to finish it.

Camp is only 2 days away! Unfortunately, I'll spend most of my time this week and most of next packing for a music festival I'm attending with my brothers and cousin (which I'm quite looking forward to, just not the packing ). But I should be able to focus more on writing after the 12th.

And I had lots of beta readers already!! But if you would want to advance read in the future, you can always contact me about that!

I still need more than twice as many words as I have... I think I might have made my word goal too high...

I didn't get to write anything yesterday since I was shopping most of the day, but I got 1,600 words in this evening! 1,100 of those were in Ilyon - Book 5. The other 400 were the beginning of a new Ilyon short story of when Jace found Tyra. I had no intention of actually starting it, but I just felt in the mood for it today.

Ooh... a short story about Jace and Tyra? *grins, imagining it* Yesterday I wrote 1638 words, but today I got behind because I was at a friend's house for most of the afternoon. I think I've done about 500 words today?

I've set myself a fairly low goal. I may have underestimated myself. Until recently I wasn't even sure that I could write. I just remembered how I found out about Camp. As of 2 months ago I didn't know what a plot bunny was. (not that I didn't have them. My first idea was wrecked by bunnies. ) Anyway I saw them mentioned and looked them up. I found an article on wikiwrimo.org and I think that were I found out about it.

Hey! How is everybody doing on their Camp NaNo projects? I'm already behind. But, I think I basically know where I need to go now, so as long as I don't keep getting distracted by other things, I should be able to catch up in a few days. I did a thing. So, if anybody likes planning ahead (like me), come join my Facebook event! It's open to anybody who writes, but especially those who are doing Camp NaNoWriMo. A weekend word war: www.facebook.com/events/1468927330071973/

I'm ahead on Camp NaNo, but I'm...stuck. My characters need to go on a mission and I don't know what that mission should be.

Aaw. This seems like a lot of fun, but I'm not on Facebook. I'm not doing too great... I should have about three times as many words as I have.

I'll join you if it's at an okay time. I'm way ahead at the moment but I've been writing less each day. Also if I wasn't doing camp I would be rewriting. I don't like the way things happened. Anyway I can deal with that next month.

Maybe we could set one up similar to the Facebook one and do it here as well as there. It's from midnight your time on Friday, July 17 to midnight your time Sunday, July 19.

How is Camp going for everyone? If any of you are absolutely MAD, some of the people in my Cabin are going to be doing a Writing Marathon. We're doing it on a site where you can race each other (WriteDeck), so you'll have to get an account before participating. Specifics are as follows: We're racing to 10,000 words tomorrow. From midnight, to midnight, we're racing each other to the finish line. I'll be starting the sprint tonight, but please don't start writing until midnight where you live! After I've started it, no one else can join, so if you plan to join us, please hurry! When you DO get to %99 percent, STOP THERE. If you go any further, the sprint will be over. Stopping here will allow the rest of us to finish, as well. You don't have to be on all the time (but I would suggest leaving it open, and copying and pasting your words into a more secure place... you don't want a browser crash to rid you of 10,000 words!), and the rest of us will be writing when we can. We have a chat room, but I'd rather not post a link to it in public. So if you want to join us in an IRC chat room, message me and I'll get the link back to you! We can encourage each other throughout the Marathon. It's a little bit crazy, so I'm not sure if I expect any of you to join us... but I sure hope you can!

Very crazy. I'm going to try to write as much as I can Friday to Sunday so that might help. It would go into my Friday I think.

I have no idea what time zone you're in... all of us participating are somewhere around UTC -6 (or +6... I never can remember which. xP), so if you wanted to participate, that's about when we'll be starting and stopping. Some of us will be starting earlier or later than others of us, but we do want to start at around the same time.

It would be -6. I'm +10. I don't think I'll do it. I've got too many things to get done later.
