Those Crazy NaNo Forums
It seems like a lot of people in and around NaNoWriMo are astounded by how busy their forums have been over the first week since signups--me being one of them. It seems as though they've been roughly twice as active as they were last year. I wish I knew why this was--maybe, since I didn't end up registering last year until close to the last minute, I didn't see the mad frenzy (as most everyone took their urge to write on the forums and funneled it towards their stories) that I see now.
Of course, I'm lurking through the forums instead of preparing an outline or working on character design. Bad Nak...
