Yes, good idea, let's try the writing camp! Wow, the last time I participated in NaNoWriMo seems to have been in 2014 - I'd say it's about time. Not sure the wordcount is going to help me finish my WIPs, but that's okay, I can improvise. ;-)
I am Rhea Silvia, and have asked to be your buddy. Should I make a group? Do you already have one? (I don't actually know how groups work... I've been a solitary NaNoWriMoer until now. *g*)
it's more accurate that I sometimes write things that I would not read if someone else wrote them
Ah, yes, that makes a great deal of sense to me - if you write them, after all, you have control over just *how* the story does the thing that you usually don't like, and that makes all the difference. And yeah, it can be very interesting to try to write something you don't like; in my case it's usually just to see what exactly it is that I usually don't like about it, and how I can make it work for me.

you wrote Eroica?
Yes indeed - just the one story, though (Peripeteia, one of my worst titles ever; truly the height of my Title Tribulations). It was a classic case of "why is nobody writing this extremely necessary story??". ;-) I suspect that I would do a great many things differently if I were to write it again today, but I would definitely still have to write it, if nobody else stepped forward. *g*
(And BTW, by "third person POV" I meant "third party/outside POV", argh. *headdesk*)
