So if this is even a good idea it's still not necessarily something that has to happen this year, but...
I was wondering how interested any of you out there in the community would be in going together to...
Because as many of you likely know, November is NaNoWriMo, or National Novel Writing Month, the month in which a bunch of geeky writers attempt to make themselves write a 50,000 word novel in a single month. The novels tend to be crap, but the point is people do it, socialize with other people doing it, have some fun, and, you know, finish something for once.
So I was thinking. 10 Nishura boys paired all possible ways = 45 + Hamada/Izumi, Haruna/Abe, Kanou/Mihashi, Junta/Kazuki, Rio/Junta = 50. And 50,000 word novel/50 pairings = 1000 WORDS OF GRATUITOUS SEX PER PAIRING.
So if everyone gets together and takes upon themselves 1 or more pairings, we could have ourselves a crappy Oofuri NOVEL. Our novel would not actually qualify for Nanowrimo I'm sure, being written by more than one person, but teamwork is more rewarding. ^_^
Would...anyone be intersted? Issues/questions include:
1. Would enough people actually do this to be even moderately worth attempting? ^_^;
2. November's half over. Do next year? Or this year and probably fail but learn stuff to refine the process for next year?
3. Is it pointless if we don't share when done? Optional? Part of the appeal of Nanowrimo surely is the not sharing your hurriedly written crap novel. And forcing sharing will make it harder to get people to participate. Plus some of those pairings will be just... ^_^;
4. Connect the stories in some way? Might add a little extra fun/cooperation/make it less like a big heaping pile of drabbles.
5. Require the two characters to be in a romantic relationship, allow platonic relationship exploration, or even allow just having them be the mains in the story?
Remember, even if you are crap at writing, people would still be thankful for you if you wrote one of the WTF pairings since then you're taking it off the other writers' hands. ^_~
Any feedback (especially the sort telling me to stop messing around like this and procrastinating on the real Nanowrimo) welcome.
