That's right kids! It's that time of year where the masochistic ones of us sit down for a month and write an average of 5.8 pages a day for 30 days until we finish a 175 page novel! Regestration has opened and!!!!!

It doesn't work...
Anyone else try to regester yet? Becky and I have tried and we can't sign up, anyone else?

Goodness that was overly anticlimatic.

I've actually been doing close to that. I'm nearing the end of my second novel, so my enthusiasm's running high.

I had an account last year. It wouldn't let me create a new account with the same name, because my old account was inactive. It also wouldn't let me sign in with my old account, because it was inactive. Bah.

Then I remembered I had gotten an email from them a few days ago, warning that my account was about to be deleted. There's a link in that email that reactivates your account and automatically signs you up for this year's NaNoWriMo. Hence, I am now good to go. [Cool]

I re-registered too. All the forums are cleared! That was one of the best features, the forums...

The forums are up! And they have new categories!

This was one of the best parts of NaNoWriMo, the amazing amount of writing info you could get in their forums.

I'll be new this year, so I don't have an account to re-open. I've emailed them about not being able to regester...I'm just looking foward to being able to regester, not doing so is so frusturating! I'm already masochistic enough to try and do this, I don't need more pain! :: giggles :: I've already convinced two friends to also sign up this year. mwahaha!

Hey... that looks fun...

I don't want to actually sign up quite yet because I'm afraid my other writing will suffer and die. (It already suffered... why do I need this school thing anyway...?)

Ho hum... maybe I will, and maybe I won't...

Wow. This is a silly post. [Embarrassed]

I'm in, again.

And my wife will probably take my time away from her with the computer immensely personally, again.

And I will, in a fit of stupidity, blame her for deliberately sabatogueing me so I couldn't finish it, again.

And I will be shocked to learn she confesses she meant to do it, again.

And I will likely find my computer totally dysfuntional shortly after that, again, and when I take it to get it checked, the computer guy will probably say, again, "The problem seems to be right in the area around and under this sledgehammer."

November is my new favorite month!
