NaNoWriMo--year 3

Starting November 1st, I will be attempting NaNoWriMo for the third year in a row. The past two years I have failed. This year, who knows? But I have one thing on my side--my older sister is doing NaNo as well, and hopefully that will help to encourage me to go further, faster than I ever have before. Here's to the old adage of Third Time's The Charm. Maybe I should name my novel that.

This year the genre is Dystopian/Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Adventure. Can we get a one word genre for this? Nope? Okay. Well, it's going to be very cool, and I've drawn influence from a lot of different areas, including...the fifties! Should be good.
