If I write the book this summer, do I really need to do NaNoWriMo?

I mean, the point of NaNoWriMo is to write the book*. If I’ve already written it while I’m waiting for people to get back to me with edits for other books, do I really need to do it again? I mean, I’ve already got at least three books on the publishing schedule for this month. That takes up time.

Of course, the counter-point is: if I write during NaNoWriMo, then I have two books. That’s a consideration.

PS: The book I am thinking of writing early will not be set in the Fermi Resolution.

*I understand that this is not the point of NaNoWriMo, for other people. For me, the point of NaNoWriMo is to write the blipping book.
