I've changed the info in the original post.

I think you might as well remove the original NaNoFiMo. I just checked, and it's flooded with spam. Spammers took it over, and that's why the new one was created on ProBoards. As far as I know, no one has seen the admin from there in quite some time.

Edit: I forgot to mention that there's is also AprNoWriMo in April. The URL is aprnowrimo.proboards.com. It's for those who don't want to do April Fools or Script Frenzy.

I have two new wrimos one is for October and January besides the following months and the second one is for every month and year.

Thanks for adding my WriMo, Siana!

So where's everybody going in October?
I'm not writing Goth, Sci-fi nor Fantasy... So I'll probably be joining on a mainstream board (too bad it isn't on proboards). But WHY are there so many? Only creates that there will be 5 to 10 writers per WriMo...

[Siana Blackwood]

I think I'm going to FantNo, but at the moment I'm focusing on sorting out a few pantsed drafts rather than on producing anything new. I guess most of my brain-vomit progress posts are going to be here and NaNoPlotMo.

Does anyone know if the JanNoWriMo site listed is still going on this year? I've been logging on to see if anyone is there but it has little to no activity.

[marielaurent2223]

I have been on JanNo and there is people on there if you make a progress thread in the continuing closet narcissism. You will have plenty of people including me who will respond in your progress thread trust me. I am always on there and i know people who are usually on there too. I hope you have fun in next years JanNo Freeform.

Ok, thanks Marie!
