HollyinNNV Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 If you've done it, what was your experience? Can you do it without the forums? Or does it come away lacking? What did you write? (genre) What kind of time commitment was it for you? TIA, Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OH Kim Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I've NaNoed, but not Frenzied. The first year requirements were more stringent and I didn't bother. I may try it at some point. It's a wild ride but it's worth the experience to write so much in one month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I, too, have NaNoed, but not Frenzied. I didn't hit the forums at NaNo, but I'm glad I was registered. The pep talk emails once or twice a week were great. I loved the social group we had here on WTM and some in real life folks who were terrific internet support and encouragement. Do it! It is empowering to strive for a goal. We do have a social group for aspiring writers. Come join us. We will cheer you on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollyinNNV Posted December 28, 2008 Author Share Posted December 28, 2008 The first year requirements were more stringent and How so? I am curious. They looked equally hard to me.:D Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OH Kim Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 The first year the requirement included a completely new story, no adaptation of previous work. I have a great half-novel for a screenplay, but I couldn't use it. I think they've changed the rules since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
