I think I will give it a go this year. Maybe all us cartographic writers can post encouragement or updates on a thread somewhere. (this thread?)
I am shooting for a fantasy novel aimed at children ages 11-13 -- writing the sort of book I would enjoy at that time - like the Prydain Chronicles of Lloyd Alexander.
It will be set in the world I am currently mapping and set about 30 years before the time of the game my players are currently in. It will be the first of a series that will track the progress of a supporting character from childhood to adulthood.
So when I finally get my adult novels ready, this series will have built up to it.
I don't know how much to spoil about the book just yet, but it involves a half breed outcast who strives for heroics and acceptance.
Woot! Wish me luck, and good luck to all the other writers who are taking the challenge!

I have registered!
Anyone can buddy me if they wish. My name is philipstephen at the NaNoWriMo website.
Would you be the Ramah Palmer from England, Ramah? I see no other Ramah's out there.
I am stoked!
Let's get this book done!
Yup, that's me. Buddify me so we can keep track of each other on the site.
And yeah, I know what you mean. I'm itching to get going on it. I can really feel my creative juices starting to flow, so to speak.
Edit: Oh yeah, and about the name... it was amusing to me when I first used that name on ICQ a long, long time ago (Ramah was originally supposed to be Rama (I'd just read Rendezvous with Rama) when I signed up for Wireplay but the name was already in use so I used a variant spelling that I've dragged around the internet with me ever since. On MSN I used to be: Ramah Palmer Llama Farmer.) :S
Oh... and good luck.
