Just a quick update here; I'll add more when I know more. But since this is the first day of NaNoWriMo (and yes, I will be participating), I thought a caveat might be helpful:
Don't spent all the time at your computer. It's bad for you.
Yes, thanks, Mom. I know I need exercise and stuff or I won't be healthy. But so what?
No, I mean it's really bad. As in, "Chronic pain despite All The Ergonomic Things and Gunnar Optik glasses."
During NaNoWriMo, I'm still getting up every hour and walking around. And I advise you to do so, too.
Also: good luck and have fun to all of those doing National Novel Writing Month!
