It's my second year doing NaNoWriMo, and I decided to do fanfic this year. It was great trying an original novel last year, but in the end, I haven't finished it, haven't even looked at it again lol. Like you, I have a multi-chapiter fic in the works, on which I haven't really been working on lately...so instead of thinking of an original plot again, for a story I know I won't finish (I NEED to know where I'm going when I write, I need plans and ideas neatly written down on paper), I decided to work on my fanfic and get ahead! I will start a new document for it, and even try to reach 100,000 words this time (yep, that's how much ideas I have on papers XD).
I don't think I'm cheating, really. This is supposed to be a personal challenge, whatever that challenge is to you :)
