NaNoWriMo Redux

So I didn't quite make my NaNoWriMo goal of 50,000 words last month. But there are two pieces of good news. First, I learned that even if you don't hit 50,000, you still get to go to the party at the end. Second, NaNoWriMo is not over for me -- I'm adding another 50,000 words in December. And this time I have a coach, who is authorized to do everything up to and including taking away all World of Warcraft privileges if I don't meet each weekly goal. Fear is a powerful motivator...

  1. While I’m glad to read that you have arranged for someone to keep your nose to the grindstone on your writing project, it’s a little sad to know that I have been replaced as Chief Nag in your life. Oh, well, I guess it had to happen sometime.

  2. So…any updates? Have you gotten to play any World of Warcraft?

  3. Remember when he said he’d post more often, now that he’s in his new condo? You don’t? Neither does he.
