I'm one of several that are doing Nano at work this year. One of the other participants, another cashier, wrote this note when I called down to her end of the store to get a list of what she needed for the soda cooler.
This is what she wrote:
In preparation for the National Novel writing month, Nanowrimo, I shall now practice the fine art of 'Fluffing', in which a desperate novelist attempts to boost their word count through superfluous and otherwise unnecessary rambling. On this, the twenty seventh day of October, two thousand and nine, a rainy and uneventful day, Paula; kind, lovely Paula; has requested a drink list. Our heroine has answered this plea: Peps-Cola, 10, Diet Pespsi-cola 5 Mountain Dew, 10; Diet Dew of the Mountain, 9; Green tea (with Citrus),9; AMP (The official Drink of late night novelists)4; Gatorade Lemon-lime,2; Gtorade orange, 2; Gatorade Cool Blue, 1; and that odd, quaint hydrogen, single oxygen compound, otherwise known as water....one.
Best drink list EVER!
Paula

That is AMAZING! I need to copy that down. I'm already starting to feel the heat, and it's only day three!

Sometimes, looking around the site, I feel like a first year at Hogwarts, and all the staircases keep moving...

Already surprised by where my novel has taken me---Day 3 and right on target.
