So who's gearing up for NaNo this year? Any ideas what you're going to write?

I'm going to give it a shot this year. Thinking about a sequel for last year's story.

Of course I am! Planning to actually split between two book ideas, and not finish either of them. First, there's my urban fantasy heist story starring Tricia Colt, a girl with stealth magic so strong that she actually lost her family because of it. People have a tendency to forget Tricia, and when her powers first came in, she got a little amnesia from the backlash too. So she can remember things about her family, but not get back to her, and she thinks they don't remember her enough to even admit they have a missing persons case. I also want to go back to my Aurigae Galaxy setting, going deeper into an episode I mentioned in passing last Nano, about the first human navigators to map hyperspace trade routes to alien planets, so that as the human race we're not dependent on when the aliens want to come and visit us.

I'm going to write about everything I did while waiting for the NaNo site to reboot: twiddling thumbs, rolling eyes, growling...

Alien romance for NaNo 2014 ... although I've been trying to write all week and the result is that I'm feeling very ... unsuccessful ... about my own writing.

eiie! So good to see you here. I am dealing with my pre-NaNo writerly low self-esteem by doing discovery work / brainstorming / doodles. I made a thing: The aliens in my story have an incredible long game.

I'm vacillating between rewriting the next book in either of my series, or going for something completely new.
It's hard when you feel you have an obligation to your readers... (And already have to series going at once!)
