NaNoWriMo 2013!

Contests

National Novel Writing Month is upon us!
(D: And my apologies for the delay on rolling out the forum parchment, we wanted to make sure you guys had private forums again this year.)

If you're unfamiliar, NaNoWriMo is a project that challenges you to write a 50,000-word novel within the 30 days of the month! I know many of you have been hard at work burning up those keys to make your goals, and we'd like to invite you to post your work here on Aywas for some appropriately themed prizes. c:

Here's all the links you'll need:

NaNoWriMo 2013
Post your stories here! This is publicly visible.

Private NaNo Logs 2013
If you don't want your work visible to the public, please utilize the private forum instead.
Only you and staff will be able to see your threads, and we will happily remove them from the site upon request after the month is over and prizes have been handed out.

Whether you use the public space or private area, you must follow the NaNo instructions!

We have also created a new FAQ thread for any questions that you run into.

And, of course, there are prizes!
(They stack, so the more you write, the more goodies you accumulate.)

Prize Tiers:
1,000 - participation item.
5,000 - pet item.
10,000 - HA set.
25,000 - Defense items.
50,000 - Forum title, exclusive fauna and a powerful weapon!

I'm not telling you exactly what each item will be specifically, but those are pretty good hints.
Since I don't have time to participate in NaNo myself, you have to let me create suspense somehow!


Good luck to all you wordsmiths!

Cool. I was beginning to think Aywas wasn't going to do anything this year!

YAAAA! I have a couple stories ready to go! Can we have cliff hangers at the end of the books?

You can have a cliff hanger, of course! :3 We're pretty lax on the content/structure, we just like to see you writing. - Eri

Keys - if you write 50,000 words, you will get every prize from all tier levels, as the prizes stack. c: - Eri
