This was a huge accomplishment for me. I was so convinced that 50,000 words in one month was completely beyond me. When I realized (at about 43,000) that I was actually going to accomplish it, I was so proud of myself and realized that I should be setting more goals for myself and breaking down more mental blocks.
People doing this are also doing these things:

Nanowrimo starts in two days and I’m excited. I haven’t decided if i want to use my great idea, or just write a Zombie thriller. I’m leaning towards the zombie thriller since writing a well crafted novel in 30 days is impossible.
i’m getting ready to do this again. did it last year and it was an amazing experience. (yes, i won)
this year, i’m going to keep going until i have a complete first draft. last year i got to 55k and stopped because the story ended up too scattered. this year i’m going for completion of a concise story.
My friend Norm introduced me to this two years ago and I loved it. I now have two novels to sift through with a bunch of little details to work out. The best thing is, though, I have this great chunk of material :D
A friend of mine asked if I would like to join NaNoWriMo last year, and I thought heck no! I had been writing quite a bit before that and it kind of fizzled out and I developed writer’s block, and I knew I couldn’t complete the challenge so I didn’t try. Now, I’m sorry I didn’t. I am currently working on a piece to tune up my writing for this November and maybe change my style around. I’m actually doing a rather poor job. I started in January and I have fewer than 1,000 words. I’m ready to pull my hair out! Oh well, I’ll have to forget perfection and just do it. I can always correct later on. I probably won’t finnish this year, but I’ll give it a go.
Just kindof lost track of it – and by the time I remembered, it was fah, fah too late.
next year, kiddies.
Made it to 38K words, but I’m running out of steam. I hope I can crank out another 12K+ words by deadline!
and I am part of a “finish my NaNoWriMo group here at 43 things.
I believe taking part in the event brought me a lot of luck!
I think I’m le screwed. I don’t think I’m going to be able to finish it! yikes!
But hey, I’ve just got to keep trying that’s all!
