NaNo 2011

[greenconverses]

I skipped doing NaNoWriMo last year to work on my thesis (lol) and I'd like to do it again this year, but I don't really have an original fic idea nor a big, long fic idea I could work on for 50,000 words.

Anyone have any ideas for alternative writing options for NaNo?

I know a couple of people are doing this:

You could just do a bunch of one shots or something that add up to 50k total? That's essentially what my plan is... Or the mermaid AU. /innocent whistle

I second the idea of a bunch of short pjo fics that equal 50k words.

I'm not officially signing up for NaNo this year (at this stage) but I know Chelle is and I was planning to word war with her most days. For me it wouldn't really be about getting one complete story done, but more about having a commitment to writing every day regardless of what I'm writing and regardless of whether I do anything with it?

BASICALLY RACHEL'S IDEA?

I just set up a calendar of November and had my flist pick a day they wanted and give me a fandom+prompt. It'll keep me busy writing all November and will definitely be 50k altogether.

... so, yeah, basically what saturninepen said :D:D:D:D

I'm not doing exactly NaNo, but I'm pretty much committing myself to write at least SOMETHING every day in November (all revolving around the same original plot).

A bunch of short stories featuring the same characters or location? Poetry? OOH! String together all your blog entries from the month of november and call it a memoir ;D
