Y'know, Amanda, this just might be your year. I mean, you don't have to have a lofty idea -- Lord knows I never have -- you can write a fanfic novel if you want. I really think you can do it. Write a novel about Sun. Write about her childhood and her marriage and her life in the present. Write about what you think her future might be like. Or write something completely different and take a break from fanfic for a while. The beauty of NaNo is that you can do WHATEVER you want. Go for it! I'm gonna go for it too, so we can hold each other's hands...metaphorically speaking, since our hands will be *very busy* in November! ;)
