Hello to anyone who may open this topic. I just wanted to do a little inroduction, since I have returned for a second (and hopefully more successful) year of GothNoWriMo.
I am a college student five days short of nineteen years of age, and I am studying environmental science, policy, and chem (triple major for the win). I also love writing and music, and I love October weather and Halloween, so I am excited for GothNo.
I participated last year, but due to unfortunate circumstances, I was unable to finish, and had to drop midway through the month. However, I am very excited for this year. I am almost through with a novel that has been in my head for years now, and I intend to push myself to finish that by October so that I can be fresh for GothNo.
Until October, E

By the way, I thought that I would add that tonight, I picked a logical place to stop working on my current project at the end of a section of dialogue. I save and click on word count, and it was exactly 31,000 words.
I thought of October because of 31 days, and was very happy and excited for GothNo (even more so than before).

Hello and welcome back!
Have you a project in mind for GothNo this year?
Best of luck with your current project. Finishing something that has been with you for so long is a great achievement... maybe a little sad, too?...

Actually, and I am surprised by this, finishing this one won't be sad. I think it just needs some closure after so long, but then again, I do have a sequel in the back of my mind. I never envisioned a sequel, but during sociology, it just came to me.
I don't have a project for GothNo yet, but as soon as I find time, I intend to go on a creepy place hunt, starting under the stacks of the library, to the creepy tower, the basilica, the under construction science buildings, you know, all of the good places for creepy inspiration.

A triple major sounds very impressive! haha I took a high school chem class last year, and almost died. I had trouble remembering all the elements and their charges.
But anyway, I'm really excited for GothNo to start too. I just bought a Halloween t-shirt the other day, so now I'm really in the spirit.
