I started out confident that if I got stuck I could just write crap or nonsense, and many times in the past week I have, but it's much harder than I thought it would be. I think this must be the true benefit of Nano, it teaches you to stop being a perfectionist and learn the value of writing anything that comes to mind.
A hundred times I've started writing an idea that's inane or stupid, and then found a better idea suddenly emerging a few sentences or even a few words later. Those ideas wouldn't exist if I'd just sat there staring at the page.
