I'm not doing it simply because I know that I won't be able to do it and will only drive myself half-insane in the process. But I'm here to cheerlead and offer support if anybody needs it! :D

I'm definitely doing it unofficially. I probably won't finish, but I have a plot and characters, and it'll be a bit of fun at least! :)

Awesome!

I keep trying to start stories and they each fail after like two pages. But I have a new idea and I'm hoping having a challenge will inspire me to finish (or at least get far enough that I'm "into" the characters).

Is there any kind of word goal you're aiming for?

[etacanis]

I have the same problem! I start, and then I get bored of the characters, or distracted. I'm hoping these characters are interesting enough though :)

I'd like to hit 20k at least, but I'm not too bothered. Mostly, I just want to see how far I can get, considering I'm usually awful at getting stories to any decent length. You?

I hadn't decided, but I think 20K seems like a pretty reasonable goal.

I've done a Nano-like 50K writing challenge twice since the real Nano and managed to finish it. But other than that, I can't seem to write at all. It's weird.
