I am NANOING! And I have to say that so far It's been my most productive nano year by far. I've already hit 20,000 words and I heaven't even started for today. What I am nanoing is a second draft of one of the things I nanod last year... and I will likely need to do a third draft because while I am cutting down on the "fluff" from what I wrote last year, I had to add in a couple major characters to help solidify the connection between this story and another I am planning, and rework some scenes to accommodate how the love interest of the story decided to be Australian. So I'm going to have a lot of new fluff to remove.
So my second draft is probably going to be significantly longer than the first, and I found it extra funny because I'd listened to an episode of writing excuses about doing a second draft and how you WILL cut out a lot of stuff if you're doing it right. And here I am mostly EXPANDING the story.
I also did some pixel art, sketched something and plan to do a short yume nikki style loop for my composition. My weekly goals are much reduced for nano.
