Are you a bad enough dude to slam out a 50,000 word novel in 30 days? This extreme exercise begins on November 1st and ends at midnight of November 30th. Now is the time to get that idea out of your head and onto the page. Yes, you are ready.

Our thread over on the NNWM forum. Just a proper meeting place for when there's no thread up here on /lit/. Behave yourself over there or else we'll get the boot.

Use this thread to discuss ideas and ask questions.

Stop by the discord and drop us a Pastebin link. We have a few people that actually give critique.

Lemme guess. You're going to be ready to write after you procrastinate for another 5 years?

MY FUCKING ADHD IS KILLING ME BROS

Holy fuck, I had momentum but I'm panicking now. I wrote a little poetry instead yesterday but it's trash. Feeling truly retarded. My creative process is a mess.

I need to make coffee, right?

I have the really real kind and it's impossible to stop getting sucked into all the juicy garbage on the internet at this exact moment in time.

Feeling calmer now though. Gonna try and write until I hit the last four digits of this post in word count. Wish me luck.

I once wrote 8000 words in one session. But it took me about 9 hours.

I already posted them somewhere else with a name attached. I don't feel comfy sharing with /lit/ because frankly, I don't trust any of you in the slightest. They were just modernist descriptive poems of objects and experiences anyway, nothing cool. Regular word pictures.

>>16537429

I know., I'm making progress though. 300 words in and I'm grabbing more coffee. Also I wrote another poem because fuck it, poems are a good time.
