Sorry, I have not been around much to cheerlead our nano writers, but getting a PhD gets in the way of the things I really want to do.

Anyway, Rosie you are doing so good. The last totals I saw was over 26,000. I do not know if you get a prize for finishing, but I think you are going to make it.

Same with JenB. Congratulations on the new job.

Talon, I have not seen numbers from you since the beginning of the month. Are you still writing?

Corin, I thought it was wonderful that you believed that you could start in the middle of the month and maybe do 50,000 words. I think your story should just be about a Senator who is a good man and his destruction (for contrary to the posts here for FR, he did not self-destruct) at the hands of the media who were determined to see him lose. The official count is he lost by less than 10,000 votes. You could purge your tired heart and say all the things that you want to say. I bet the words would flow.

I don't think my therapist would allow that.

And Hair would fly to the East Coast just to whack me with a fish...
