Who's doing Nanowrimo this year? Would anyone be interested in a discord nanowrimo group for support and encouragement and to talk about writing through the event?

For those of you who don't know what nanowrimo is, November is National Write a Novel in a Month. Basically the goal is to write a novel, or 50,000 words in a month.
Nanowrimo has an official website where you can track your wordcount and connect with other participants.

I'll be using nano to write up the frist draft of YoeYoh. For sure book 1 and maybe book 2?

A NOVEL UN ONE MONTH!!!! It always takes me at least 3 months to write even just one chapter, which I always scrap at the end. I bow to every one who is able to complete this challenge!
Kind of, but I won't focus on the 50k word count (Just started Uni, no time :') ). I'll just take Nanowrimo as a chance to motivate myself to finally write something, even if it's not much.
Sounds fun! Even though I won’t have much time again this year I really miss writing after so long so I’m tempted to just try working on random scenes for different projects just to get writing without having the pressure of committing and working consecutively on one thing if that makes sense. 😅 Then again knowing me I might just settle on one project, it just depends on which one. Last years attempt was abysmal, barely made 7000 words but I guess that’s more words than I would’ve had otherwise
Yes yes yes yes! I'm part of a writing challenge discord as well who might be doing NaNo, but I'd love to join your support group as well! Or perhaps we could combine? 🤔 I'm up for either though!
I'm still undecided on NaNo. I'm mostly focused on GameDev at the moment and my arm-injury affects my ability to type too so I'm not sure if I want to risk hurting myself in the name of the 50k. 😂 But at the same time, ah, to have 50k more words on an older WIP... Would be nice. Seeing such a Discord could be neat if there would indeed be a bunch of interested people. xD
I’ve tried to do it but I never finished
Ohh that's sounds so cool while I'm probably not gonna be officially participating since I'm kinda out of shape with writing, I'm definitely gonna try to do that with one of my oc story's that I wanted to write out for a while🙏
Also, hmu on nanowrimo and add me as a buddy! https://nanowrimo.org/participants/solinkie
