Racers, To The Starting Line!

Okay all you brave souls, it's

TWO DAYS
 
until

 
NaNoWriMo 2014!
 
Are you ready?
 
Have you: signed up at NaNoWriMo ?
 
Written a cursory outline of your project?
 
Gathered all the materials you'll need?
 
Stocked up on comfort foods so you don't have to stop in the midst of inspiration?
 
Warned everyone that you'll be crazy at least once a day until you write?
 
Surrounded yourself with pictures, objects, texts to help you through a block?
 
Reminded yourself that it's about writing, not about perfection, and that if you don't finish, you're still a good person?
 
So many people are doing this. You are NOT alone. Reach out if you're struggling. Let's all cheer each other along. There is no prize other than personal satisfaction and knowing that unlike so many people who talk about writing, you're actually DOING it.
 
I'll be posting here and there (I won't be counting my blog as part of my NaNoWriMo word count because it's not my project), so I may miss a day or two.
 
Come December 1st, let's all catch up, take a breather and push off any revisions until January when there are no holidays and only long stretches of winter which is perfect for going back to work.
 
Until Saturday....
