So, there's seven of us here now, and things are getting a little bit noisy. Sgmoo is exhorting me to go register NaNoProMo.org, for National Novel Procrastination Month - "I mean, you're online. Get on top of it!" I demurred, preferring to put it off until next month.

The topic has since moved on to the logistics of writing an entire novel of maniacal laughter, and how many words it would come to, and how you would spell them.

I had intended to get some writing done here, but I've hit a difficult part, and the Boulder Meet-up is distracting. It's certainly easier to think about spelling maniacal laughter and analyzing the cocoa content of chocolate chips from Whole Foods than it is to figure out how my main character plausibly discovers the nature of his highly unlikely problem.

Meanwhile, I Am Clever. Again. When I update my word count here, it also updates my word count on nanowrimo.org, along with my novel's title and the excerpt I'm displaying. Cool, huh? I may even make my novel excerpt visible from here. Stay Tuned.
