Hello, NaNos! My name is Rebecca, and a part of the teenage-NaNo clan
I'm one of those "have written all my life" people, but to be honest, the first time I wrote for fun was when I was eleven, and the first story I wrote for fun was when I was thirteen. But, writing is second-nature to me, I write (or read) every day. If I don't, I don't feel so good...
I first heard about NaNoWriMo two years ago during my first year on lj, but thought I was too little to participate, last year I decided to check it out instead of just wondering. But, I would have done it even if I wasn't allowed. It didn't go so well. Funerals, excessive homework and three birthdays is tough. This year I am prepared though!
This year I am betting safe, and writing in my own native language, and that is Swedish. As pretty as English is, I need to be able to play a lot more with the language to pull this off.
I've had this idea since August when I got it while eavesdropping on a conversation on the train. Now it's itching in me to get to write it down, so I'm very excited for November!
