"I really like NaNoWriMo.  I wrote Aigaion Girl (well, the first 20,000 words or so) for NaNo 2008.  Last year I won (woot!) and I have 50,000 words of absolute dreck that I need to strip down and rewrite in December (and beyond).  If NaNo is supposed to give me a zero draft, 2010's gave me a negative one draft.\r\n\r\nI started planning in August and have a 13 page outline and cover art for this year's book.  Obviously, I'm super excited.\r\n\r\nExcept.  #21... Yeah, I completely thought you were being hyperbolic about the reasons the website gives for participating.  I was already near the end of your post when I thought \"...he is joking... right?\" and then went to check for myself.  I lost a lot of respect for NaNoWriMo today :("
