How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Gar, as an editor, I'd like to see that story too.

“Not dead yet!”

Caffeine gods, I implore thee, help me out, for I have signed up for NaNo. Another YA writer asked if I'd do it to keep her company and since I need a good disciplinary spanking, I figured this was as good a way to go.

Anyone else doing it? I'm on as Barb Ferrer with the space and everything.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I'm seriously contemplating it, Barb.

Because books.

Is it cheating if you already have something started? Maybe I could finish the zombie book ...

“Not dead yet!”

I don't think it's cheating at all. I mean, yeah, the idea is that you write a novel from scratch, but phooey to that, I say.

When I did it in '04, I already had like 20K on LUCKY THIRTEEN and added another 65K during NaNo. So I neither started nor finished it, but I did do a big, horkin' chunk of it and met the 50K goal, so I considered myself a winner.

Hmmmm.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

The hush drabble is now closed.

The new prompt is machinery.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, no, is it NaNo time again? I usually try, but fail pretty miserably. Only this year, I won't be traveling for the holiday, so maybe...

Glutton for punishment.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I am going to go completely insane waiting for Agent Kate to come back with a verdict on whether Sam is saleable.

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

is it NaNo time again?

I need more time to decide! I've tried twice and never finished.
