I just feel like I've kinda got nothing that could be developed into a fully fledged story...
I use She/Her and They/Them pronouns.

This year I'm using the NaNo theme of superhero and writing the story of a meek and mild woman who rescues a crash landed alien who has superpowers on earth. But when she rescues him she gets some powers of her own and is actually the one who is helping him to do his work. His planet will get interested in Earth and they will have to work together to assure that nothing bad happens and in the end, my MC will own her power and danger will be thwarted. At least that's the idea right now. I feel so unprepared. I've spent too much time working on getting everything scheduled for our region that I haven't had much time to focus on my novel. I'll be pantsing it this year for the most part. :P And Trys is right. We have a lot of people who handwrite their novels and then I'll use a Lorem Ipsum word doc to have them upload it on November 30th to validate they wrote all of the words. If you run out of story you could have fun with writing prompts. It's good writing practice. :)

My NaNo is made even more fun coordinating the write ins and seeing how much fun others are having. It becomes a synergy of fun!

Looks like there are a lot of write ins in your region, Trys. Hopefully you'll be able to make some.
Also - don't forget to activate your novel. You can use the TBD like I did. ;) | ||||

Huh - there were 7 on the Google calendar when I checked, but they are only in two locations. (Spends way too much time on the NaNo website.)
You could always set one up yourself and see if anyone else would like to come. Might make some new NaNo friends that way. | ||||

oh, there they are - i didn't scroll through. but they're quite a way from me, between 30 and 45 minutes from me. so, yeah.
there's also an intro thread on our forum, and someone else is in my town, maybe we can coordinate something near us. =) *eyes Zen suspiciously* are you stalking me on the NaNo forum?* XD

I'm interested in what other regions are doing so I follow a boatload of them and check in on others to get ideas for our region. I guess you could say I stalk a lot of regions. :P This is especially true when I'm looking to travel during October and November to see if there are write ins where I might be going. Did I mention I practically live on the NaNo site during NaNo Season? ;) | ||||

Shh, I was attempting to use reverse psychology on Den. But maybe I'll just spike the food in here with writer's brew and maroon a few plot bunnies on the vegan table.
As you take a bite of the chicken empanada, you notice a strange taste. You have encountered it before - the spice of life, with just the right dash of creativity. While your stomach grumbles, all of a sudden you feel the sudden urge to sit down. The fluffy bunny to your left seems to grin. How can a bunny even grin? "Write!", it whispers. Holy cow. You could've sworn you only grabbed soft drinks from the table, and now... are you halluzinating? A vision forms in front of your eyes, but not of the blurry, alcohol-induced kind. You blink and stare at the novel that hovers in front of you. Your name on the cover. One of these unflattering photos in the back. But before you even got time to furrow your brow, the pages start turning all by themselves - and this is how your story unfolds. | ||||

Ooo... You should consider doing NaNo Death by Mirrors. That was an awesome scene!

but it makes sense for you to follow a number of regions, including where your friends/writing buddies are. i guess my region shows up in my profile. @Death - that sounds really good - maybe that's the opening paragraph of you NaNo novel.... you know you want to take that trip down the plot bunny rabbit hole.... XD
