Oh I should do. That might be the spark that gets me writing again.
Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I keep meaning to do Na-No, but I've yet to be anywhere near the starting point of a new book at this time of year.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Do it! It'll be fun. And we can complain to each other about the not fun parts.
Eta: not that you should interrupt your WiP, Susan.

Hmm. I might see if I can add 50K words to the WIP in a month. I don't think that counts as an "official" Na-No, but it'd be a good motivational tool.

I like that thinking.

Hell, I should do NaNo just to finish this short story.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh noes! You know, I never actually do NaNo. I just sign up and then feel guilty for a month.

I did it once before and I was tooling right along until I got derailed by Thanksgiving. This year we might not have a Thanksgiving so that would work out great.

I kind of can't believe I'm going to try this in a month already full of moving and Thanksgiving and normal workload, but I figure I'm always busy, so if I can make myself write in the middle of that madness it'd be a boost for me the rest of the time.
Possibly troll logic.

Same here.
Oddly enough, I may use it to finish a long fanfic I've had in the planning stages for years (but then, given that it's a WWII-era prequel to a story set in 1999, it sort of counts as an original novel, I suppose).
