Oh... NaNoWriMo sounds awesome. If I had a less busy life, and had known about that beforehand, I might've tried. I am trying to write a novel since I was 12 (that was my first try then... lol, I lost interest after 100 pages). The last serious try got to a little more than 300 pages, but I hadn't even told half of what I had intendet to tell and then lost interest. That's why, even in ffs, I mostly try to write one-shots; I can't focus on a story arc long enough without being distracted by another idea. And in my newer attempts... I mostly stopped after creating the concept. This would've been some kind of encouragement to try and get through with it. But yeah, maybe next year... or the next... or the next...
