Who thinks January would be a better month for NaNoWriMo - National Novel Writing Month?


Not that I CAN write a novel in a month, ****? now that I think about it, I don’t know why November was chosen ***? NaNoWriMo. November may be one of the more boring months of the year, ****? it’s not the MOST boring. Sure, Canada has just Remembrance Day, ****? you Americans not only have Veteran’s Day, ****? also the Thanksgiving weekend which pretty much kicks off the Christmas ***?ason. Tell me you would rather write a ****?k than spend ***?me with your ***?mily on Thanksgiving, or go shopping on Black Friday… LOL!

Now, with January, all you have is New Year’s Day. Sure, there’s also Epiphany on the 6th, and Martin Luther King Jr’s birthday on the 15th, ****? they can’t nearly be ***? special ***? the American Thanksgiving in November. Not only that, ****? January is said to be one of the coldest months (I think the average temperature is -20 degrees Celcius, unless you live somewhere where it’s typically warm in the winter, like Arizona or the south of Florida) and the most depressing month of the year, where ***?ople would rather stay inside in front of TV than ***?ce a blizzard and/or a long cold streak.

Let’s ***?ce it, they don’t call them the “January blahs” for nothing. What better way to ****. up this month than to write an exciting novel for contest purposes, lose yourself in ***?ntasy?

On top of that, with January ***? NaNoWriMo, you have an extra day to complete your 50,000-word manuscript (31 days this month, ***? opposed to 30 in November.)

So what do you think? Wouldn’t you say that January would be a better month for this than November?

    I do. I’ll probably never participate in NaNoWriMo because November invariably starts out with sufficient ***?me to write ****? ends with no extra ***?me at all, due to the holiday rush that starts mid-November.

    I knocked out about 30,000 words in November, all by the 14th, ****? maybe another 5,000 tops the whole rest of the month. I’d have been a ***?ilure if I’d registered.

    I would totally take a stab at a January NaNo. There’s only one day (New Year’s Day) when I might be unavailable.
