3 (Terrible) NaNoWriMo Limericks (Let’s hear yours!)

Published by at 1:06 pm under My NaNoWriMo,National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo),noteworthy,On Writing,Works in Progress

Now, for your enjoyment, here are three (terrible) NaNoWriMo limericks.

~
An aspiring writer albino
Decided to try NaNoWriMo
The fellow got a bit crazed
A whole book in 30 days?
Now he lives on the streets as white wine-o
~
One otherwise common November
A respectable writer church member
Falls behind on word count
Too behind to surmount
Goes to write-in with plans to dismember
~
Two rivals both signed up for NaNo
“Let’s settle this mano-a-mano!”
When one finished early
The other turned surly
Like life written by Ray Romano
~

Don’t worry about looking stupid, people, I’m here doing it for you! Give me your best (or worst) attempt at a NaNoWriMo limerick. Can be about the contest in general or just how your project in specific is going.

    Well, you asked for it….

    Am I just a ninny to Nano?
    To summon my muse and to Wrimo?
    Is November the time
    To remember the rhyme
    That can only be rendered by Flymo?

    I actually like the limericks, especially the last one. :)

    Here's mine:

    It was on the eleventh of November
    I became a NaNoWriMo member
    Behind before I started
    Will I have to be carted
    Away in a straight jacket in December

    Thanks Jennifer! I personally feel like the middle one is the real weak link up above!

    Thank you for contributing yours! :-)
