My friend Dawn has first dibs on it, but I'm putting the group up for adoption. Sort of. I'm dropping out of DA.

You have to be active on DA and willing to help fellow teen writers as much as you can.

And dats all, folks.
As of right now, the NaNo timer is ticking. There are six days and twelve hours!

So, as of today, I want you guys to write a thousand words minimum every day, for the next six days! And to further the challenge (this is optional) you can use the prompts I'll be putting out every day until the first! To take it even FURTHER, you can use your cast of characters from your planned NaNo novel for the prompts.

Unfortunately, I'll be off of DA for the entire month of November, only checking my notes every now and again for the sake of my Etsy store, where I'm selling my custom shoes. But! I may be able to convince my lovely author friend and co-founder :devwaytodawn234: to keep up the Tuesday and Friday prompts, as well as give little tips for NaNoWrimo (which she won by a landslide last year).

I forgot Tuesday's song prompt (oops), but you don't need those right now! Today's prompt is snake. Unlike our usual Friday prompts, these can be used as often as you like throughout the piece, and it must be at least one thousand words long!

Good luck, everyone! Remember to share your results with the rest of the group!
I almost forgot about this week's prompt! :XD: But, I didn't.

This week's word is nostalgia.
nos·tal·gia

You can also use nostalgic.

Have fun, and remember to feature your results!

It's not a very commonly known word, as far as I've seen, so maybe some of you will learn something new as well! ^^
