Congrats everyone! It's over!

Don't forget to validate your win!

There are lots of cool graphics and other winner goodies to claim, but you need to validate by November 30th to do so!

Also, if you're not planning to hit 50k, still update your latest count so we can see an accurate collective count for Dayton, and so you have a record of your progress going forward. :]

BACK UP, BACK UP, BACK UP!

You're halfway through the month! It's time to make sure that novel doesn't run away. Print it, e-mail it, send it to a cloud, drop it in a box, copy it out by hand, memorize it line by line. Whatever your favored method, get to it and safeguard your future masterpiece.

Check your time zone!

An incorrect time zone could mean strange stats or an early deadline at the end of the month. If you didn't set your time zone THIS YEAR, check it out. They appear to have reset with the new site.

Reminder:

Don't forget to back up! Every day. Twice a day. Email your novel to yourself and rejoice in your daily peace of mind.

Also, try and update your word count each night before bed. Besides satisfying everyone's curiosity, it makes your progress chart accurate and fun to look at come December.

WELCOME BACK!

As you trickle back in, let's introduce ourselves in the sticky thread and get to know one another. Something we can continue at the KICKOFF BASH / WRITE-IN (of epicness) on November 5th. =]
