Misc writers: NaNoWriMo
Anyone else doing this?
Basically, you write an entire novel in the month of November. It obviously turns out pretty crappy, but it's an excellent writing exercise to teach yourself to just get that sh!t worked on.
I changed my entire planned plot the night it started (Halloween night, after midnight,) so I'm a bit behind where I should be on my daily word count, but I'm catching up.
Here's the official website: http://www.nanowrimo.org/ I have an account there, also under "sheduma."
It's not too late if anyone thinks this sound like fun. There's also a month for writing a music album, and one for scripts.

I've already dedicated my November to beard growing and no fapping. No time, sorry.

Definately not a writer but I can see how this is a great idea. I would get in on it but I've been trying to get back into the gym more, don't wanna push things.

This is why people shouldn't suppress their sexual urges. Imagine all the great literary works that will never get written!
Then again, this IS the misc... maybe it's best this way.
