I attempted NaNoWriMo the past two years, and got anywhere between 25,000 and 37,000 words done before I absolutely hated my characters and wanted them all to die.
So, for the past week, I've been "interviewing" my character for background for her story. Unfortunately, I found out she has two friends that I know nothing about. So now I'll have to interview those two this month. One's a real firecracker.
Another problem I've had was plotline. I had NO CLUE what I wanted my characters to do besides artfully walk around their apartments, looking at their rooms and thinking about stuff. I'll figure something out.

Sorry. I'm babbling yet again!
