No takers?

MizzArianna · « **Reply #2 on:** October 14, 2008, 10:25:09 pm »

So...you have to pretty much write a 50,000 word essay on eating a banana?

TanisNikana · « **Reply #3 on:** October 14, 2008, 10:34:42 pm »

50,000 word novel about anything you please.

MizzArianna · « **Reply #4 on:** October 14, 2008, 10:42:07 pm »

Ok. Seemed more like an essay to me. I guess I'll try it, and most likely fail.

TanisNikana · « **Reply #5 on:** October 14, 2008, 10:42:56 pm »

By the way, I'll be giving a box of Ramune to anyone who can win NaNoWriMo by writing a whole 50,000 word novel in one month, from November 1 to November 30.

MizzArianna · « **Reply #6 on:** October 14, 2008, 10:44:51 pm »

**** that, I'll do it in like a week. Already have a story in my head.

TanisNikana · « **Reply #7 on:** October 14, 2008, 10:46:06 pm »

50,000 words is a lot of words. Wish I had a story in my head.

But remember, you can't start until November 1!

TanisNikana · « **Reply #11 on:** October 14, 2008, 10:49:36 pm »

It's not essay. It's novel. And you win by finishing it in time.

By the way, a couple of rules apply:

1. Your original content only. No copying from Wiki to fill 50,000 words.

2. Needs to be a complete story.

3. Follow all grammar conventions of the English Language.

MizzArianna · « **Reply #12 on:** October 14, 2008, 10:51:50 pm »

Mine will be a romantic story on the Revolutionary war. I'm making a web comic on it.

KogaRyu · « **Reply #13 on:** October 14, 2008, 10:52:22 pm »

Hmmm, maybe I'll give it a shot. I specialize in epic poetry, but maybe I can try a novel for once.
