OK, so I’ve been too shy to mention this here until now, but this year Jennigirl and I decided to try and tackle National Novel Writing Month together and we both did it!!! We fucking did it!!! We both won!!!! Ahead of schedule!!! Hell yeah!!!! The challenge was to write a 50,000 word novel from scratch between November 1 and November 30, and while at this exhausted juncture we make no claims for superior quality, we both walked away with nifty winnner’s certificates and big chunks of work we can hopefully edit and refine once we regain control of our lives and our bladders again. Thanks so much to everyone who let me get away with disappearing off the face of the planet to write this month - especially Han and LCF. I also wanna give a big shout out to this place, where I spent four summmers of my life in the ’80s. If you weren’t so fucking insane, I wouldn’t have had so much to write about.
