Chatter Post: Reminder, NaNoWriMo, and Writing Software

[white_aster]

Hello all! We hope that your first month of Origfic Bingo (or your first few days of Origfic Bingo, for the new folks in the room--Hello, new folks!) has been fun and exciting and full of awesome!

One quick reminder: Amnesty Week (which runs until the end of the day tomorrow) is the only time that you will be able to request a new card this month

I wish I could do nano - but November is one of the two months that I am away for 14 days and working 18 hours a day working.

when I get a new job maybe...

Urgh, yeah, that would totally kill most of the possible nanoing. I have a hard enough time pounding out 1600+ words a night when I'm just working normally!

[bodgei]

yeah it totaly kills most of my writting projects...

I did do a nano in August once

Oh, that's sad! My personal writer's group was considering doing NaNo in August, when we weren't as crazy, but sadly, didn't get a chance to try that.

I haven't written on my NaNo today but I'm ahead of the game in wordcount, at least. I still have just the vaguest idea of the plot the characters are telling me, we still haven't left the hospital yet have been in three fights there (two with non-corporeal beings, at least), and I think my Bingo card this time out will be some strange attempt at a blackout, because, oddly, the boxes are hitting what I'm writing about rather than being prompts for the story.

Oh, and unabashed hot tea drinker. Currently with a cup of caramel flavored tea, if anyone's interested.
