Hi, I'm Liss *shakes hand* I saw your offer to write a novel on livelongnmarry, and unfortunately I don't the money to spare to bid on it, but I just wanted you to know I think your offer is absolutely wonderful. I've been writing for more than half my life and I know how much time and effort goes into writing, so I applaud you for being so generous in offering such a wonderful thing. I really hope someone buys it from you :-)

:) Thanks, Liss! I figure, I've done National Novel Writing Month for three years running now, and if I can write a novel in a month, I can certainly write one over the course of a year. I'll let you know if someone bids on it.

Oh my god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You've probably seen this by now - but somebody actually bid money on your novel. Real money! The kind you can do stuff with! (Not that it's actually coming to you...)

But that's exciting!

Yeah, I saw that. But the more important one is that someone bid at all...
