Also, I am evidently signed up for NaNoWriMo again this year. I seemed to have clicked on something that updated my registration from last year.

Well.

I'm not sure what to do about that. I might cheat a little and write 50,000 words of non-fiction instead, because that's the project that really needs a good push right now. It's time to write my first feminist tract. I don't suppose there's a NaNoFiWriMo out there. That would sound Stupid.

Doesn't NaNoWriMo sound a little pomocrunchynonogogo too though?

I still do want to do it though - If I don't I won't so I will.

I need a Nonfiction NaNoWriMo! I tried to do it last year, secretly, but it's really hard without the massive community support.

I think someone needs to do this. Plus it would make for some fun PR about writing 50,000 words about yourself. I mean, how brazenly narcissistic must you be to get that done? I'm there! Let's do it!

I will definitely commit to being a Nonfiction NaNoWriMo buddy this year, but I can't undertake the great organization work they've done on NaNoWriMo. Perhaps we can start our own LJ community and go from there. I'm sure there are others who will follow...

You're welcome! I wish I'd taken that picture myself.

I sentence you to one month hard text.

Well, what to do about it is...do it! Not to be all R. Lee Ermey or anything, but YOU are the asshole in charge of your own destiny!

Seriously, though, I think NaNoWriMo oughta relax their restrictions on fiction/non-fiction; there's just as much creativity involved in cobbling together a coherent Drama In Real Life as there is firing up a simultini and letting the synapses go apeshit. I, personally, was quite looking forward to having at least one friend to suffer with through this thing. It's like quitting smoking, or something. Easier to do with someone else.

If the Fates say "no" to you this year, it is certainly understandable. But just let it be known, whether you're in or not, that the whole reason I've been doing all this mental plotting for well over ten months now--this little subroutine running in the back of my noggin whenever I have an idle thinking moment and the screensaver comes on--the whole reason I've been obsessing over my impending NaBreakingintriguinglywithtraditionalformatNo opus for close to a damn year...was because I first heard about this little organization from you. To this, the only possible thing to say is "thank you".

I'll get around to murdering you more around the middle of November.

My dear, even if I decide to cheat with non-fiction, I will fully support you in your novel writing, and I will cheer you on when you reach the finish line.
