Another thing... Crap can be rewritten, rethought out... I actually had someone ask if they could keep reading my novel even though I had just asked for opinions on my two first chapters and which was better. For once I liked them both and couldn't pick. Why? Because though my writing started out as crap, the characters weren't, the plot was good though it has changed a bit as I went along. The first version if I still had it, would look nothing like my last version.

Rewriting is a writers best friend. Giving up is futile because you never learn anything that way. So far I have won Nano 7 times and each time I started over about 6k words in. If I can do it, while being dyslexic and homeschooling 6 kids (we are now down to three) so can all of you.

For the record. This will be my tenth Nano. Its just 1667 words a day. You can do that. Anyone can do that.
