Participant icons

Per NaNoWriMo's policy, you aren't supposed to hotlink their images, but repost them instead. So I am hosting a copy of each on my server. Feel free to use them.







ETA: This blog is totally overrun with icons right now. LOL. I'm going to remove all the ones on the right except for people that I already know are going to do it this year. I'll add you back if you tell me who you are. :)

Report Card

Here is the updated 2006 "report card". It just helps you keep track of your progress. :)

Todo List

  1. Make sure work is completely on schedule with no surprises.
  2. Decide if I'll be writing locally in Word again, or if I'll swtich to Writely.
  3. Sketch out a story arc with corresponding wordcount markers, e.g. introduce main character's mom's side story by 5,000 words.
  4. Flesh out central conflict -- I'm still confused over this.
  5. Figure out reward system for this year.

What else would you suggest?

It's time!

It's time to sign up again!

If you already have an account from last year, you don't have to register again; use this link instead. They've reset all the counters and cleaned up the message boards.

Don't forget to edit your profile to check off which years you've done NaNoWriMo and which years you've won! It doesn't track it over time automatically, so you have to tell it yourself.

I'm trying to figure out the difference between Literary Fiction and Young Adult as it pertains to my proposed novel. The line is blurry.
