Why I Feel The Need To Write 50,000 Words This Nov

This is going to be a quick email introductory swap. You will summarize what draws you to NaNoWriMo and the reason(s) that you have chosen to participate, and email this to your three (3) partners. You can elaborate on any history you have with the writing project, or lack thereof for first-time NaNo-ers, about how you were first introduced to the writing phenomenon.

This should be a good way for you to identify and celebrate the reasons why you are participating in this writing expedition. Later on, if the going gets rough, you can refer back to this as a reminder of your ultimate reason for attempting NaNoWriMo this year.
