This page serves as a non-exhaustive list of people on the Fediverse doing NaNoWriMo, for the purposes of building a community. If you’re interested in being on the list, message @amin@alpha.polymaths.social with the working title and synopsis of your project.
No one will be added to the list unless they ask for it.
Benjamin Hollon - Coriolis
Coriolis started as The Prodigal’s Brother, a serial novel intended to be published daily throughout 2023, but that stopped in February. This NaNoWriMo, I’ll be engaging in a full rewrite of the first several seasons (yes, the publishing structure will change). For a sample, here is a draft of the new prologue (despite appearances, it’s a Hard Sci-Fi novel).

A small group of characters followed along their journey to a new Lunar base by a second group of characters (bad people), who want to steal the new base, steal the hard work and sweat and blood that went into the first group’s work (finding the best spot and building the base). The full flung adventure has the first team investigating numerous devious incidents that seem to have come out of nowhere but one team member has a hunch that their every move was being watched.
