So, What's Next for Camp NaNoWriMo?

In 2013, I began a satire known as Harry Moffer & the Dumbest Story Ever. In that particular story, Harry Moffer (a 14-year-old loser) is suddenly yanked away from his comfortable but boring home in Branford, Coggnetigut and taken to another town called Wyvernwing, Pencilvarnia. There, he is sent to Warthogpox High School.

In Warthogpox, many people believe he is the real-life incarnation of the boy wizard Larry Dobber, the hero of the Larry Dobber series. Harry doesn't think he is the hero, not when he hasn't done anything significant. He manages to befriend Pun Teasley and Hildegarde Lamer, two other losers who are just as discontent with their lives as he is. The Grim Trio sets off to break Larry Dobber's stranglehold on America, which also exposes the books as a well-written fraud. How the story progresses is anyone's guess.

Harry's story continues with "Harry Moffer & the Really Stupid Sequel", when the entire population of Warthogpox High ends up singing songs inspired by High School Musical, "Harry Moffer & the Class That Couldn't Keep Itself Together", in which secrets about Harry's past are brought to light, and "Harry Moffer Really Needs to Give Up & Go Home", in which Harry, now a high school sophomore, deals with everything happening in the Larry Dobber books.

Now, I should be on the fifth book, "Harry Moffer & the Unhappy Fandom", in which the Larry Dobber fandom is angry with him for not only calling their favorite book series a colossal waste of time, but Harry himself is a junior who must find out what happened to his parents or die trying.

Well, what's happening with the series? I'm going to get everything ready so the fifth book can be written in April. We still need Harry Moffer.
