That was sudden

alissamarie mentioned participating in NaNoWriMo, and I thought "Hm, I've always meant to do that someday, but I can't possibly this year. I've only just gotten my life under control again, and I barely have time as it is to keep it that way."

And then I visited the website, and signed up, and made a profile. And got my plot idea.

So.

I don't know. Maybe for one month I can put aside other things and actually get it done. Because you know me--I want to either do it, or not do it. If I actually do this, I will darn well make the deadline with my 50,000 words or I will be a Most Depressed Person.

Has anybody else done this? Tell me, how much of your life did you have to give up?

But I'll do it, I'm sure I will. I've always wanted to have finished something monumental, even if hastily (ie, badly) written. Rewriting I can handle; the initial setting down is the hard part. If I get that done, I'm good.

Posting again *cringe*

Can anybody read the text on this icon?

Ten points to the person who can tell me what it's from. =)
