So Robert doesn't have a naturally pleasant scent, exotic animal companions, violet eyes, a noble heritage, healing powers, wings, and the characteristics of Barbie Doll Syndrome?

I'm working on it, I'm working on it.
Does actor/model count? Obviously not the other way around. :B

Does Axe body spray account for naturally pleasing scent? I think Frankie is mos def a Mary Sue.

I think Axe body spray is -10000000 points, and anybody who naturally smells like it is automatically the opposite of a Mary Sue. Nega Sue.

I was curious about Axe and what it smells like then I googled a surprisingly familiar ad. Then it hit me, we call it 'Lynx' but it's the same thing... mostly I think. I don't think it's too bad when used in the correct volume sorry... The ads are shitty though.

It's the ads most people dislike, I think. The range of scents isn't bad, and I'd probably use them if I didn't hate their commercials and the general Axe culture. I'm sure it pains Unilever that they've lost one whole customerrrrr!

Hey guys I wanted to put a nano question to the crowd.
It seems many people come up with a concept, character descriptions, some research, and outlines in October, which is apparently kosher, as long as none of that counts toward your word count for November.
So... What do you think of that? Kelly thinks planning kills inspiration for NaNo, at least. I find it very difficult to invest myself in something without a solid idea and plan. BUT, I don't know. I just don't know whether I should pre-plan or not, to what extent, and how.
What will you guys do?

If I do this, I highly doubt I find the time to plan anything or, more likely, I procrastinate doing anything until the second week of November.

I'd personally like to have a loose outline and character kind of meshed out before I start. I'd like to know where I'm going with it so it doesn't just moosh. Honestly I've already got kind of an idea for the plot. We'll see.

Indeaaaa. Indea, tell meeeee. Tell me your idea. I can't wait a month! Can you at least give me a hint through some fancy charades?
As for outlining, I think it's reasonable, since a novel is a big project. I've never tried to write one, so I know I'll need to plan a little. I'll probably think about what I want to do sometime before November.

Well... I'm considering it. Also, if you're reading this, you may notice I created a nano sub-board. So... Welcome to it! We'll put our stories and anything about NaNoWriMo in here.
