you said below that you don't feel you want to do it for discipline or inspiration reasons - i'm not sure those're are the only reasons around to do it though. i think there are a fair amount of people who are in it for the networking/social part of it - like a giant writer's workshop weekend or something. part of the workshop is just getting together with other writers and gabbing about what you're writing.
i know maygra is also doing a mini nano again this year - but to prompts, not like mine. i'm not so good with prompts, which is why i decided to go it alone, but if you'd like something like that, or to make a commitment to do some sort of excercise every day, i think that's a perfectly reasonable thing to declare as your nano project.
this is kinda rambly, but i'm trying to say don't go by what other people are doing; go by what you feel is best.
