And I think the general concepts the espouse are excellent (write everyday, don't go back and edit what you've written, keep moving forward even if you think it's all going to heck and back). It's that time thing again. <BR/><BR/>Although, November seems to be opening up. Depends on how the end of this month happens. I certainly will keep it in mind and I might try to keep with it (although I don't think I'll be doing the reporting of the progress, except maybe here).<BR/><BR/>And I have pointed new writers to it because I do think it's a good idea.Steve Buchheithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12999709767641212586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19111384.post-39474233328525770682007-10-08T15:00:00.000-04:002007-10-08T15:00:00.000-04:00Greeny, "hoopy frood" is a reference to Douglas Ad...Greeny, "hoopy frood" is a reference to Douglas Adams' <I>Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy.</I><BR/><BR/>I'm going from memory here, so I might be a bit off.<BR/><BR/>A hoopy is a really together guy.

I agree with you that NaNoWriMo is a good time to get a jump on a project. I had thought of using that time myself, but then I realized that there simply aren't enough hours in my day...(plus I'm scared).<BR/><BR/>Have a great Monday!!ThatGreenyFlowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10464818533143531044noreply@blogger.com
