The N can stand for for November, novel, night, NaNo, narwhal, nothing, ninny, nightingale, nor'easter and/or necropolis. You can pick which you like best.

I always watch one of my very favorite movies just before the start of NaNo, "The Warriors". Trouble is, I just finished. I think I started earlier than I usually do because I've still got an hour and 21 minutes to go! Bummer! : (

an hour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think I may be sick if I put my damned book down one more time before midnight. I'm just about in full on panic attack mode on my plot. again. I know it's not a big deal if I end up being a true pantster and ditch it completely within the first week (no plot? no problem! tells me so.) but damn. I don't want to end up doing what I normally do and start over 50 million times. it's a bad idea, and it's why I'm doing this in the first place. good luck all!

27 minutes! I think my sugar high has warn off becuase I am no longer bouncy and excited like a kid ready for Christmas. I have gone into a deeper calm of "oh yeah, I'm ready. Bring this on!" sort of excitement.

lol. I took 18 minutes to clean my desk area, deciding at the last minute that I really wanted to do all of my writing from my desk, and not from my couch where I've been preparing. honestly, it wasn't as trashed as I thought... OR I'm simply so enthused that It took me significantly less than it usually would.
25 minutes!
