hai2u Flint,
Just wanted to see who alls doing Nano this time around.
I'm Matt, as some of you may remember, and I am doing Nano, but I am in the process of moving to Lansing in order to shave hours off of my commute everyday. So I'll be throwing it down Red Hot style in Lansing
I'm probably going to do cyberpunk/sci-fi story again this year, because I enjoy it and I love me some gun fights.
So I broke the ice a fairly coherent manor, so it is your turn.

zomg first reply!!
Matt, we will MISS YOU, you know that. And you can come to any write-in anytime and eat the brownies and drink the ... coffee, I guess? I hate Kool-aid!
So everybody, this is a handy way to let you know that O HAI! The forums have reopened early! It's a 'soft launch' though, so PLEASE do not be alarmed if things don't work like they should now and then. Just bide your time and have fun reconfiguring your author profile!
:)

I hope I have the time this year! I really enjoyed it.
----------However a few months ago I signed a contract for writing three dog
books, w00t...it's a lot of work, and I have a fairly tight schedule of
deadlines. So I'll see where I am on Nov 1. I hope I can.

WOW, northamerican_bird, contract writing! Yay for that! :)
I hope you can do Nano also, but if not - you have a pretty great
----------reason for having to skip this year. I hope those books are coming
along well!

Thanks! It's a write for hire deal rather than royalties...pays enough
----------to live on for a year (or bank some decent green) so I need to stay on
top of the publisher's schedule.
If I can do nano again I will though, I had a lot of fun with it last
year.

Going good, despite the fact that I don't have a computer (at the library currently) and haven't done much writing (got a short story I'm working on longhand .... blech, but the story's pretty good so far). I *might* have a desktop by November, otherwise ... its going to be a LOOOOOOONG month! o.O

Bonjour Matt and others. Nanowrimo is less than a month away and I'm relaxing here in my chair proud that I have everything ready for Nano this year.
Caffeinatedelf... Congratulations on becoming the ML this year. Bummer I won't be able to make it to the meeting. Kickoff party and the meetings won't work with my schedule, but I hope i'll be there for the TGIO party in December, depending on whether my mom gets a car or not.
allamericanbird and wingedcheetah... Hope you get a desktop by November. I finally got a laptop last christmas and I'll be typing as much as I can this November with absolutely no breaks other than school and homework and fantasy football. It'll help me out a ton with typing up my novel. Good luck nano!
That is all for now. Nano will be a blast this year. I'm psyched!!!!
