12:01am Writers?

[suibhne-geilt.livejournal.com]

So...

Anybody else out there having a midnight write-in tonight?

Last year, just for fun, I stayed up late at home and put down a few hundred words as soon as it hit November.

This year, just for fun, I've called a formal write-in for my region to meet up late tonight and bust out some text at a minute past midnight.

How about you?

I have to work the next day, but I am so going to be staying up an extra half hour or so to crunch out some words at 12.01.

I always do. :)
I have to admit, this year, I am really nervous that I won't make 50,000.
I am writing non-fiction, I am not sure where I'm going with this book just yet, and I am 7 weeks pregnant. :P
Things might be a little messed up, so I need all the time I can get.

Congrats on being pregnant!

Many congrats!

I usually try to, but considering I managed to get sick just in time for the beginning of November, I'm thinking that might not be such a good idea this year. >_

I'm going to run around like a headless chicken all day to finish my work and take a nap so I can stay up tonight. My NaNo group is too busy for a meetup. :(

[originalpuck.livejournal.com]

Yeah -- my NaNo region is meeting at 11, and we're going to have a write-in until 1am or later. ^^ I'm pretty excited -- I did it last year, too, and it worked wonderfully. Of course, last year I had a better grasp of an idea, some concepts, some characters -- ah well. ^^;;

[kt-the-diva.livejournal.com]

Wow where are the group meeting up at that time?

[originalpuck.livejournal.com]

A local twenty-four hour coffee shop. It has my favorite Steamers, and speedy WiFi. ^^

[kt-the-diva.livejournal.com]

I'd better be in bed by 10pm lol. 5pm-6pm each day is my NaNo time but I expect I'll get up earlier tomorrow and start some as I'm pretty excited about it all :)

We'll see. I really want to stay up late and do it, but... I have work and homework and a life that I plan on keeping up with... but maybe trick-or-treating will last long enough to get me sugar high enough to need to stay up late. ;D

ARGH I'M SO EXCITED, I WANT IT TO BE MIDNIGHT!!!

[stariceling.livejournal.com]

Yup! ^_^ I'll need to take a nap this afternoon to make it, but I want to start right at the first minute in. I just hope my ideas don't all dry up the minute I actually allow myself to start putting words down. Ideas all over the place, and I still don't know where I want to start. Ack!

Just... 16 more hours to go.

[peregrin8.livejournal.com]

That's a great idea! I'm staying in tonight, but you have inspired me to do a midnight write.

[resuriko.livejournal.com]

I'll probably try and crunch out a few hundred words or so in the spirit of Nano. =D I'll already be wide awake from halloween and stuff, so what the hell! xD

[christinex1001.livejournal.com]

Hell, no. :-P I value my sleep too much. I'll probably get some writing done in the morning, though.

[sophiedb.livejournal.com]

I may do - totally depends on the baby and how badly she wears me out in these last few hours...

[princessstarr.livejournal.com]

I plan on staying up a half-hour and attempt to get 500 words. And then I have an exam.

Thank GOD I have Fridays off, or this whole Nano-and-six-classes combo might go sour.

[skeezix74.livejournal.com]

No write-in's for me until the weekends. I plan on trying a 24 hour write-a-thon on Saturday, though.

[el-staplador.livejournal.com]

Ah, why not. Less than six hours to go...

[okelay.livejournal.com]

i'd like to, but i think a friend is having a party or something
i did it last year. it was fun

[cathepsut.livejournal.com]

I want to, but I am just too tired. Maybe I'll get some words in tomorrow morning before work. But most likely it's going to be tomorrow evening after work. No other plans and my "weekend" is on Friday, so I can stay up all night, if I feel like it...

[bad-habit.livejournal.com]

Yes, but not for long I fear. Sleep is always nice.

[verity-viridian.livejournal.com]

My best friend and I, being Catholic, are going to Church at 6 am on the first since it's a Holy Day. So we're doing the midnight thing, possibly staying up all night?
