You know, I've actually never done it, don't think I will be this year, work is too stressful for me right now, but I would like to try some day! Though I'm no 100% I'd do something Rayearth related if I did.

it's because you're awake in someone else's dream.
So that's why I can never sleep properly...
Who the bloody hell is dreaming about me because so help me God,
I will smother them in the face with a throw pillow.

Well, it's national novel writing month. So the expectation is writing a novel - well, a 50,000 word first draft of a novel in 30 days. Which is bound to be complete and total nonsense.

I'm going to probably be doing fic, but that doesn't matter.  I think Down's doing an original novel, though.

I'm aiming for 2000 words a day, and will be planning to take one day off a week, to rest, if needed.

I wish you the best of luck dear, considering the last time I wrote anything that long it took me 10 years I won't be joining in this year  :P

Day 8 - Currently at about 16,360 words as I type this. 

Not bad. It's still hitting my goal of roughly 2000 words a day, but I want to push a bit further ahead and see what all I can get down.

Never did say, but I did end up winning for the first time.

Made it to 50,000 words, even if I didn't manage to do it all in one single project.
