I....think...I'm going to try something different this year. I spent a good part of August and September in my main novel, fell in love with the writing and reading process again, and burnt out on it. I have realized I don't want to write it anymore if I always just keep it to myself, and haven't found a swap partner.

So I'm going to go for a Be Ridiculous NaNoWriMo, and swap between prompts here and prompting myself using childhood stories from either toys or imaginative play. And just not take it seriously. 30 days of at least 500 words of play.

A couple of years ago, I used NaNoWriMo as a reading challenge, and once as an exercise challenge, so swapping it around and having fun being on the fringe of the tide of other folks challenging themselves is my thing. Just this year, it'll be with actual writing.

Anyone else doing Nano with a fresh perspective or completely different twist? Curious!
