I suppose this is NaNo in its rawest--and perhaps intended--form, and in the past, I've been very much a spontaneous writer who'd sooner just do it then waste my time (and impetus) on a lot of that other crap.
pretty much, yeah, although there are folks who will plot and plan and outline until they are good to go when Nov. 1 hits. I tend to get the idea, let it percolate a bit, and then go, and that usually happens about a week in advance, but I don't plot/plan/outline anything. Well, not much anyway, and that doesn't account for the muses who say *snort* we're doing it differntly. And they do say differntly. ;-)
I must admit that writing in NaNo '05 got me to 50k quicker than last year and this year. But I'm holding steady at 18485 right now, and writing the bare minimum of 1667 words a day. Maybe more. :-)
