So i was reading the last couple paragraphs to get back in the flow of my story and came across this gem:

"Otherwise they are going to get more crushed and starting put more pressure on your body."

You guys finding some quality bits like this?

I notice that I've been using more adverbs than usual. Example:

“Will you be saying something at the meeting?” asked one of the members anxiously.

Blech.

Oh man, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I'm not about to go back and read my previous paragraphs for fear of being Savaged *cough* by my inner editor but I do recall a little gem that made me cackle like a madwoman.
It was something along the lines of:

"Is it me what caused the problem?"

*Facepalm*

Here is one of those sentences that can only exist in Nano:

I wanted to take a nap, to awaken and not know all that I now knew.
