So, we've established I'm crazy, right?

Who here has heard of 3 Day Novel? If you haven't, it's a novel writing contest (to get your novel published) where you have 3 days, over the Labour Day long weekend to write a novel.

I tried doing it 2 years ago (well, I was writing fanfic, so I wasn't participating in the actual contest part of it, just using the atmosphere and challenge to get some writing done). While I didn't finish the story I was writing I did manage to get 10K of it written over the weekend, it was pretty awesome.

There's going to be mad writing at the house this year for it, and I'm thinking trying it again myself.

Except, the thing is (and you guys may have noticed this ;) I'm more of a podficcer than I am a writer. So I was thinking of changing it from a 3 day novel writing weekend, so a 3 day novel podficcing weekend! I want to get at least 10K read and edited in a weekend!

Anyone want to join me?

You are a terrible influence, especially since I'll be working the Monday and at least a part of the Saturday, but my answer is still "HELL YES"

I guess there's a reason I've apparently picked up a reputation as someone who signs up for everything XD

I did a 3 day novel writing project once! My friend and I did our own version one weekend because we couldn't do it Labour Day. It was pretty intense! But I did get a massive chunk of writing done, so there's that. ;D

Good luck with your podficcing! That sounds fantastic! *cheerleads*

I think that's awesome. I'm game.

I have like 8K words to record and 12K to edit for my ladiesbigbang podfic, so I am totally joining you guys for the mad weekend.

Labor Day? Like beginning of September? Or is this a different weekend?

ETA: I think you mean American Memorial Day? May 26-28? Or does Canadian Labor day not coincide with any American 3 day weekend.
