So I'm wondering if this counts for my NaNoWriMo or not.
I had started a novel last year and gotten probably about 11k in and put it down. I had two MC's and I was writing in 1st person POV and swapping between who was telling the story.
This month I naturally wanted to participate in NaNoWriMo, I don't know if it was the pressure or what, but I literally sat for three hours and wrote only 600 words, deciding I was putting too much pressure on myself I decided to take a break and just read old stuff. Which brought me back to this WIP.
I started over, scrap and redo I suppose, and decided it would be better as a 3rd person POV and even the main point of the story (MC dying) somehow changed. It's seriously just taken off. It's going great, I'm definitely going to finish it this month and everything. I'm stoked.
I just can't decide, does this count as participating in NaNoWriMo since I started it completely over this month, or if this doesn't count because it's kind of like a scrap and redo.
Really want to participate in NaNoWriMo but I don't want to claim to be a participant if I'm not playing by the rules.
