and that was NaNo_2011
Dec. 1st, 2011 15:30Yes, yes, I've been quiet about this. No excuses - we had family staying with us, there were other issues, but even so, main reason for the end result had to do with not forcibly carving out the time as I did before. Thanks to my cheerleaders for adding to the fun (yes it is fun, even if it hurts and even if you fail horribly) and thanks to Red for prodding me along the road.
My final NaNo count:
Sort of half a NaNo? Like running a half marathon instead of the real thing?
Ah well, that's still 24K of Burning Bright 2 that wasn't here in October. I'll push it up to a full 25K today and then keep adding to it this month but right now it's forward with the Big Bang again. That's going to be a change of pace :D

LOL. Having other people who understand the flail is always a good thing.
