NaNoWriMo soon

Any masochists around here who will be doing NaNoWriMo this year?
I notice signups start in a few days, though of course the starter's gun doesn't go off till 1st November.

For those who haven't a clue what I'm talking about:

Did you finish your non-NaNoWriMo "Revenge Inc"? Funny you should ask. I've just recently dusted it off and am attacking it this month with the lofty goal of getting most of it done before November.

Those quotes off the NaNo site are so true! Yes, low goals will set your inner muse free to pour out all sorts of stuff onto the page. This month I will be doing all-out BS and trying to make it as wacky as possible.

As for your story "Insurance" I really liked it! Any story that makes me laugh and sniffle at the same time is great in my humble opinion. Sometimes my mind dredges up scenes from it and I have a nice little think about your amazing world and the wonderful character who live in it. I'm looking forward to this year of cheering and commiserating and general insanity. Lots of coffee too--and yummy chokkies from the import store.

Are you going to post Revenge Inc somewhere separate as a single file, or even as a set of chapters? If you don't have a site maybe I can help there.

Yay! More Revenge Inc.! I was really enjoying that story.

Thanks for the uplift for my story. Not sure how well deserved it is though. I made a major stuff-up about half way thru. I gotta go back and fix that. Errr... and another near the beginning... and... oh gee...

Heheheh I'm shaking in my boots at the prospect of subjecting myself to NaNoWriMo again. [gulp]

When I finish (haha when!!) Revenge Inc. I'd like to post it somewhere. This blog setup is not very good for posting stories, I find. I do have an account at Fictionpress.com. While there are some really good bits of writing in there, the overall first-draft quality of the writing and lack of finished stories has not endeared me to the site very much. I use it mostly for killing time when I want to play around on the internet without actually doing anything productive. Haha.

I'm still quite a newbie with all this new fangled-dangled com-pyuu-tar stuff so any advice you can give would be most welcome! But there's no hurry because both November is looming and I have (as of this moment) nothing of publishable quality. We'll talk in December! o(^^)o
