Anyone here going to be participating? I did it last year and it was a good time. I didn’t make the 50k word count, but I also didn’t do any planning. This year, I’ve got a story I’ve been planning and researching now since mid-July.

Way to go! I tried two years ago, but only logged about 20,000 words. But then I also write for a living. There was a group that met on Sunday afternoons to write together, which was my favorite part of the process.
