Imagine having to mark a class full of 50,000 word essays. Imagine the look on your kids faces if you told them they had to *write* a 50,000 word "short" story. LOL. I don't think I could count that high when I went to school. Thank goodness for computers with word counters.<br/><br/>As for the genre - that's a relief as I'm not sure I *really* know what a genre is. LOL. Okay, I kind of know, I *think*. ????

As for the genre - that’s a relief as I’m not sure I *really* know what a genre is. LOL. Okay, I kind of know, I *think*. ????

I'm glad to hear you're on board Lightening! Don't worry about a genre - you don't really need one of those. I'm going back to think about my characters' backgrounds. Good luck!

I’m already losing my simple-living convictions because I want to keep up in a bad, bad way with the NaNoWriMo in-crowd and paste one of those nifty logos on my blog.

Oh, it’s going to be fun!

ROFLMAO there is no way i will sign up for this, even with my fantasticly long comments and novelite emails. I am having enough trouble with an assignment and 2 exams looming over my head as well as the trip to coffs and then tomorrows trip to sydney. Arrgghh and I am currently in the foulest mood possible because its midnight and i still have one child who has apparently LOST all the clean socks he owns and as I have the last load of dirty clothes in the machine I KNOW THAT THERE IS ONLY ONE PAIR OF SOCKS IN THE WASH ATM! Oh and add to that the DBF who is NOT so Dear atm because he now works, so i should do everything while he sleeps on the lounge and gives orders such as FIND his tooth floss. Which is probably still in coffs harbour because i havent seen it since then and i have unpacked everything we took, even emptied the car totally because its going into airport storage while we are away. Hehe does the nanowrimo thing count if i just add all my rantings into one storyline?? I could probably pull off the 50,000 words if i add all my rantings, comments and emails together and make it contiguous. Ahh well i am not mighty either, but fallen and falling, well my blood pressure at the moment needs to do both of those adjectives. Oh and to answer the "turn into crazed lunatic" noone would notice if I did either, sure I have been one for many years now. I have noticed i type much faster when crazed or in a foul mood too lol. Ok well now that I have proven my suitability to join the crazed lunatic club I am going to go pack the toiletries bag and the tooth floss, well if it doesnt jump out of wherever it is hiding, it will just have to be left behind!
