I suggest we have a thread--maybe elsewhere, maybe bigger than this--for National Novel Writing Month.
We can keep tabs on each other that way.

Perhaps I should make it a new permanent category somewhere?
I know... okay... you should be seeing it as a new category on the page very soon. *nods*

From an email I received today: Dear NaNoWriMo Participant, It's amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it. And I'm not using "you" in a general sense here. I mean you. As in you sitting in that chair, so kindly giving up a few minutes of your life to read this email. You wrote a novel with us in November. Or maybe you just recently signed up for NaNoWriMo, and are looking forward to bashing out your first NaNo novel with us in the fall. Regardless, you're a brave soul with a well-honed sense of creative adventure who does well with ridiculous challenges issued from random people on the internet. Because of this, I'm here with a proposal. Let's write a movie. Or a play. Or a graphic novel. And let's do it in April. For Script Frenzy. Script Frenzy is the other global writing escapade we put on every year. The goal: writing a 100-page script in 30 days. Partnering is encouraged. All kinds of scripts are allowed, including adaptations of your NaNoWriMo novel! The t-shirts are stunning! No experience is necessary! Script Frenzy's Writer's Resources page will teach you everything you need to know before you begin. I think you're going to love it. If you're a parent with concerns about abandoning your family for a month, fear not. Your children will be penning their own movies or plays right alongside you (when they're not making you dinner and giving you wrist massages, of course). Script Frenzy's Young Writers Program will transport your kid or teen from FADE IN to the closing credits in 30 days. We're expecting 20,000 people to write with us this year. We'd love to have you on board. Come on by and give our plot machine a whirl! www.scriptfrenzy.org I'll see you in the Frenzy! Chris NaNoWriMo PS: Your NaNoWriMo log-in will work great on the Script Frenzy site. PPS: If you won NaNoWriMo in 2009, there are just a few months remaining to claim your free proof copy offer from CreateSpace! Details on the CreateSpace site!

I don't have time for Script Frenzy this year. I've got other things I've got to be working on. Sounds cool though. I might try it out one year.
By the by, what's Create Space?

Not a clue what Create space is. I suspect it is some website.
I mulled over doing Script Frenzy--for about three minutes. But I am in the same boat. My two busiest months are September and April.
But it did sound tempting.
