Yay, Lisa that's a great idea. There are lots of people who take part with projects other than novels. You even get your own section on the NaNoWriMo forums called "NaNo Rebels"
Good luck with your stories. Have you got any idea what they will be about yet?
No, I didn't even know I was joining in this year until I read your thread and decided to give it a go.
I'm just going to start writing and see where it takes me. Your idea sounds like it'll be interesting. Have you done much planning in preparation for the kick off of NaNoWriMo?

Once upon a clear dark night an elderly man with a wicked cat who ate all of his freshly caught shrimp in a most peculiar, yet satisfyingly white china bowl.
There were sounds outside his window as the wind turbine that spins came crashing down scattering the crows. The sounds of wings, furious and flapping came through the darkness.
And with that become clear that the old man's home was not a good place, not like before. He chose to ignore it for he already knew the reason for it was time warped. So, instead he joined the circus. There, he became an amazing acrobat who created a entertaining show for the elderly folk who ate watermelons and spit seeds into the offending crowd of onlookers.
Covered in seeds, the acrobat then promptly took his large knives and sliced a huge potato in dodecahedrons — took great care with each 12-sided shape before throwing

It's really good to see so many new faces around here, but if you could please avoid mentioning adult-related websites/topics across the site, including the chat rooms, forum, in profile areas and image galleries, I'd really appreciate it. This is a family friendly site and we have members here aged sixteen and over. We want everyone to feel welcome.
I hope you're all enjoying yourselves here.

Hi Chris,
Thank you for your suggestions.
Here are the Stories Space Facebook and Twitter links: http://www.storiesspace.com/forum/yaf_postst23_Twitter-and-Facebook.aspx
The reason stories are sent through to be verified first is just to make sure they comply with site guidelines and also to ensure areas like spelling/grammar etc are up to standard. They're only sent back to the author if any edits are required, otherwise they're approved very quickly.
As far as making an author a favourite, that can be done when you click on one of their stories. On the right hand side of the page, just below the author's avatar is a list of options such as making the story a favourite only or following the author. Once you're following an author you'll receive an automatic private message every time they post a new story or poem. Your favourite authors will show up on the left side of your profile page, as well as a list of any stories you've added to your favourites.
Another member, Van Gogh, has suggested a book club and we're currently looking into it: http://www.storiesspace.com/forum/yaf_postst422_Book-Club.aspx
We've run one competition so far http://www.storiesspace.com/forum/yaf_postst202_Our-First-Competition.aspx but there will be more in the future.
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback and suggestions!
