I am so not ready.
I am so not prepared.
I am so going to fail miserably!
I've got a rough outline and about a quarter of the chapters all planned out, but I'm just not mentally prepared for this. I barely have any time to fit it in what with moving house this month, and going to the gym, and being lazy... but I suppose like last year's Nanowrimo I will most likely do all my writing while on the train in the morning on the way to work.
I'm going to try to be more methodical in my approach to it this year and try to write a constant amount of words each day as a base minimum so that any extra words are a bonus (but cannot be classed as granting a day off).
We shall see how it goes at the end of November.
Its currently half way through the first day and I haven't written a word. The hubby has a lot of Facebooking to do tonight (his profile magically disappeared last night... It wasn't me!) so hopefully I'll be able to get my days worth of words down while he's doing that. Thank God I've got Jerry to type on, coz hubby will be using the computer.

Maybe too late for this year, but you really should get a copy of No Plot? No Problem!. It's the official NaNoWriMo writer's guide and it's full of tricks, tactics and information to get a novel written in a month. I've NaNo-ed four times and won twice. The two wins came after reading the book.
