    NaNoWriMo is a complicated and inexplicable acronym of sorts... I guess... idk. It's short for National Novel Writing Month, which happens every year in November. It says it's National, but it's actually an international thing, anyone can join up, and the goal is to write a 50k rough draft in 31 days. I got about 11k before having to give up due to school n stuff.

    Here's the website, it explains everything. http://www.nanowrimo.org/

    @Pheonix I didn't win at all...but I got a total of 10,031 words. I was like burned out after the first week and once I had to force myself, I decided to save it for later. lol I did get a lot of great ideas for future stories though while doing it. I actually wrote 300 words in Jaz's POV (from Mac's Bar and Grill) when I should have been writing my other story. :p

    @Mac NaNoWriMo (or National Novel Writing Month) is done in November. You sign up on their website to write 50,000 words in 30 days. It's quite a feat!

    Thank you. Yes it is 2D, the lead singer of the animated band (that you do know, seeing your next post.) And about Cannolis, I had sort of a real life quest; eating one. I actually never had one, but some dude called me this as it resembles my last name. It sticks by me since that day and I love the nick :D Nicknames usually are the best when you are given one.



    Yeah, like Phoenix explained. Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett are the creators of the band, with a large number of people behind them. Damon does vocals for the songs (because in normal videos he is voiced by someone that has a higher voice) and Jamie does the artwork, he is known for Tank Girl.

    I had not time to respond in time to these things because I was too busy thinking of an introduction story :p

    @Pheonix *HIGH FIVE!*

    Oops...sorry...that might've hurt. Congrats on the 11K!

    But, yeah it was a fun thing to try this year. I did learn a lot about story pacing. I'm more of a short-story writer anyway, so I realized a lot of my strengths and weaknesses. I went to one of the write-ins with people and that was pretty interesting. :p

    As would I. But I really don't know. I am afraid kev675 is slightly confused as to what has to go where. But it is okay.

    @Kev675. Thank you but I did not make this story. Everyone plays a part in the story and the overall storyline is actually developed and written by the user Exzalia. We just all have characters (which you can find in this thread) and then post from the point-of-view of those characters to form the story. THIS thread is for discussing the story. Does that make sense to you :)?

    Hahahaha. :p

    I'm not sure if I'll do it again this year...maybe! If I do, I will have to avoid the site. I was a bit addicted to updating my wordcount. Then I would see everybody else's wordcounts. Bad me.
