Hmmm.... I haven't posted a NaNoGenMo "intent to participate" yet... How about you?

    @Rolando I can't code, so NaNoWriMo is more my speed (not doing that either this year, because I have too many committments this month).

    Oh, I hope your commitments don't get too stressful!

    If you ever want to learn to code, NaNoGenMo is a good excuse to do so!

    @Rolando thanks, that's a good idea. I literally haven't written code in over a decade though (except the odd bit of css modification) so it would be a steep learning curve!

    Nah, learning to code something that prints out a novel-length piece of text is easy. Just find an interactive tutorial like learnpython.org.

    For example here's how to print things.

    Here's how to print things multiple times. So now you can print a string several thousand times to make a novel-length text.

    My cousin did NaNoGenMo when they were 14, they basically just had a list of names, a list of verbs, and a list of adverbs and the text was several thousand iterations of "NAME VERB ADVERB." I think they used a free replit account, but they might have locally installed python. DM me if you get stuck.
