1.  NanoWrimo! Good luck & Reminders...ID #674097 
Posted: 11-1-2009 @ 1:21 am EST 

Hello Everyone,

Good luck to everyone participating in this year's NanoWrimo. This post is just a reminder of the activities and tools available to you here on Writing.Com. Smile


*Note* NanoGroups *Note*
"National Novel Writing Month (NanoWrimo) is a fun, seat-of-your-pants approach to novel writing. Participants begin writing November 1. The goal is to write a 175-page (50,000-word) novel by midnight, November 30." ~~ NanoWrimo.Org

For those participating in this month-long writing challenge, Writing.Com hopes to provide you with the tools, support and inspiration you need to succeed!

If you're interested in joining a NanoWrimo group here on Writing.Com, here's a few:

         *Bullet* "The NaNoWriMists 2011 [E] by Barmymoo
    Calling all NaNoWriMo participants! Join us for support, advice, challenges & friendship!

         *Bullet* "NaNoWriMo Write-A-Thon Group [E] by SoCalScribe is 9 tomorrow!
    NaNoWriMo Write-A-Thon list of Writers, Sponsors and Teams

         *Bullet* "NaNoWriMo Plus [13+] by Dawn♥Embers
    A group for those that like NaNoWriMo but want to work on already started projects.


*Note* My NanoCounter *Note*
You can keep track of your Nano word count in the left hand column of all your WDC pages. Once activated, just click the count to update it at any time! When you're done with Nano, to make it go away, set the count to 0!

Everyone can use the NanoCounter. We encourage you to turn it on and get involved! But... You can only activate your NanoCounter using the following link. It will set the word count to 1 word so the counter shows on your pages.
          *Right* http://Writing.Com/main/my_account/action/update_nano/nanocnt/1


*Note* View the Nano'er List *Note*
Those who've got their NanoCounter turned on will have a link to View the Nano'er List. This is a complete list those members actively involved in the Nano. For each Nano'er, the list shows the word count written so far, words left to write and a percent complete.

Anyone can view the nano'er listing here:

*Note* The WDC NanoLounge *Note*

We've setup a place to chat about all things Nano. Share your stories, progress, problems, groups, forums, links and more! We've linked the lounge from the top of the Nano Authors list... and it's linked right below this:
