NA-NO-RYE-MO, just like the full phrase is said. I'm British though so maybe that affects things.

This.



Two days. I am ready. Probably. Going to try and get a headstart for the first few days, would be nice to get some word wars going with Bay12 folks.

One of the WriMoSongs actually talks about this: http://wrimosongs.bandcamp.com/track/nanowrimo-nanowrimo

I say it with the Rye, because "Writing" starts with that sound...

To exist or not exist, that is the query. For whether it is more optimal of the CPU to endure the viruses and spam of outragous fortune, or to something something something.

Got a decent, moderately original idea that I should be able to free-flow churn out without too much planning. It fits my "style"--such that it is--much better than prior ones.

I like the sound of Nano-rhyme-o, like it's a competition about penning very small limericks.

In other news, finished up the last bits I wanted to do on character background sheets. My total notes from this week come to about 5500 words, and yet I still feel a bit unprepared. :P

I'm taking the nest 24 hours off, but looking forward to the opening sprint. Cheers!

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.

So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

Don't worry! Writing something completely unrelated appears to have redeemed me.

There aren't many things I miss from living in America, but Halloween is one of them.

Well, not Halloween so much. More the discount Halloween candy that becomes available once Halloween is over. You wouldn't believe how expensive those fancy Reese's candies are at the import store... (The equivalent of about $5 for a single package that you'd get in line at the supermarket in the states...)

Is anyone else watching the clock and seriously considering staying up all night to get started at midnight? It gets dark so early now, I feel like it must be late, but it's only 7.40.... : (

Yeah, I grabbed a quick nap when I got in so I could stay up a bit later that usual working on my opening sprint. I'm hoping to get the prologue done before I go to sleep tonight early tomorrow.

Right, with 3 hours to go, I need sleep. Brilliant fucking timing.
