Guilty -

I did it. I don't have the time. I haven't been writing up to this point, but it's NaNoWriMo - National Novel Writing Month - and in the end, I couldn't and didn't want to resist. So, I acquiesced and signed in. In my defense I managed to wait until the 3rd before joining. I've done NaNoWriMo since 2002, I couldn't not do it.

My goal is not the 50,000 words by the end of the month, and I was hoping to at least beat my total for last year, but really, I'll be happy if I get to 500 words this semester - ah year -

I am working on something completely new - which is always exciting. I like this book, and I will finish the one I put aside at the beginning of the semester in December, when things go back to abnormal are less harried for me.

The graphics of the stats between me and everyone else are sad....my measly ten words (it was a boring lecture, but I did need to take notes) and the thousands by everyone else.....there is always next year.
