Oh man. This is dead. 
I know this group is pretty dead, but if anyone is here, please answer. I'm trying YWP-NaNoWriMo for the first tie this year - actually NaNoWriMo in general for the first time. I would like advice on how to set my word count goal.What the helper on the website chose is way too much. Thanks!
Sorry this is really late, I don't go on this account ever.

If you haven't set it already, just set it somewhere you think would be challenging. When I was 12 I did 10,000 words, the next year I aimed for 30,000 words. I skipped a year but when I was 15 I hit 40,000 words and then every year after that i've done the full 50,000. I picked something I thought was challenging every year. At the YWP stage it's a challenge against yourself. You want a goal that pushes you to work and grow and write a lot.

Hope that helps!
Has this thread withered and died? Gosh darn it, I hope not. I'd like to meet more NaNoers here on the site. :/
I'm trying to revive it. If you know any other nanoers that aren't on here feel free to invite them! There's plenty of people part of the group, it just if they take the time to come back and say hi :)
