Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I hear you, but I think it's safe to not worry about it, unless you have received specific instructions.

Edit: About the binding, not the spelling. You're right to quadruple check the spelling. And then your typing.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I can not believe that I am actually sitting here looking at two 70-count stacks of paper, one in a binder clip and the other in a rubberband, trying to get a feel for which one looks right.

I need a life.

For what it is worth, the rubberband looks like less work to read.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Totally rubber band. Unless otherwise specified, rubber band is the industry standard.

No drabble topic this week?

sneaking in before the drabble topic...

So I got my NaNoWriMo reminder the other day. Has anyone done this particular event before? (I know Deb can write a book in a month, but I don't pretend to be half that good.) I'm sort of dumbstruck by the fact that it's almost November, and as such have not done any planning like I was... planning. I'm not sure that I can still do it, if I have no idea what I want to write.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Ooopsie. I'm about to run out the door to get my hair cut, but I'll post a topic when I get back. Promise!

Not usually; just the Kinkaids.

I generally run between four and six months, which I think is reasonable enough.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I keep meaning to do NaNoWriMo, but I'm never at a beginning point for a story then--right now I'm polishing Anna and Jack's story, and what with an actual person who might buy it having shown at least a glimmer of interest, I'm not about to set it aside on Nov. 1! However, I'm making one of my 2006 goals to finish the Lucy and James re-do I'm starting Jan. 1 in time to NaNoWriMo my Waterloo story.

I'm just boggled by the thought of 50,000 words. 50,000?!? I can't even think of what kind of story idea could encompass that many words. Of course, that's probably only 200 manuscript pages or somesuch, which isn't that much, but for someone who's only done a smidgen of actual writing? Seems like Everest.
