<p>@Abrayo the prined manuscript thing isn’t being offered this year, but was previously offered by createspace
Also, 10,00 is’nt the finsih amount, it’s 50 000</p>
<p>I’ve hit 6000, but am lagging a bit behind due to homework demands 
and the fact I ran out of plot a few days ago</p>
<p>Haha I’m running out of plot too. Seriously, I have 4000 words of people going to school -_-</p>
<p>Oh no, no manuscript? Do you know if anything else would be offered in its place? I was really looking forward to it! Oh well, it seems fun anyway!</p>
<p>Oh right, I forgot it was 50,000. But haha that’s still a whole fifth! that’s crazy…</p>
<p>I need to come up with a plot…</p>
<p>Well… I just typed nonstop for about 10 minutes and it had absolutely nothing to do with my plot :D</p>
<p>600 more words down!</p>
<p>Starting this stuff tomorrow once I get a decent schedule down for homework/sat studying/ college apps/etc.</p>
<p>Already have a decent plot line down.</p>
<p>anyone who has done this before…how do you find time to do it with schoolwork and all? i really want to attempt it…maybe just the youth one because i dont think it is possible to do 50,000 words this year since i need to improve my writing a lot and i dont have much time. and i just found out about this. it says on the youth page that for kids in grades 7-12 they are offering a free proof copy of your manuscript.</p>
<p>I just found that on the YWP page, which is awesome! They’ve just stopped doing it on the main site, which sucks for everyone else :)</p>
<p>Hmm, I can’t seem to find any information about the Youth one?
How do you specifically join that one? I believe I put my grade in when I registered; am I automatically considered in the Youth one? And what’s the minimum word count then?</p>
<p>^go to ywp.nanowrimo.org :)</p>
<p>^ and on it you can set your own target, but its not really NaNo if its not 50k!
8K and behind here, but catching up as fast a humanly possible :)</p>
<p>I’d really like to do it, but I really just don’t have time or an idea 
I post on the forums and stuff, though.</p>
