Tie my hands behind my back!

So, I seem to have signed up for yuletide.  I think this is okay.  One fic due by Christmas.  And there are some really fun fandoms that I've offered to write in.  I've asked for Antonia Forest or Georgette Heyer.  *grins*  This could be a fun Christmas present.

BUT it is now getting worryingly close to NaNoWriMo time of year.  I am NOT signing up.  That way madness lies.  I'm doing way too many courses this semester as it is.  Just because I am not going to the big conference in San Diego, thus freeing up, ooh, three days in November, does NOT mean it will be okay to write 50,000 words that month.

You are all my witnesses and I trust you to hold me accountable to this.

I love Regency romances! But no, you shouldn't do that for NaNoWriMo. *raps knuckles*

We should have our own NaNoWriMo month (that isn't November) Maybe we could try it in our writing group?

Maybe. November is a decidedly bad month for me. Though I'm not sure about doing it again anyway. 50,000 words in a month means I just write 50,000 bad words. My problem is usually that I don't spend enough time thinking about what I write, not that I spend too much.

But maybe we should start trying some kind of challenges in firemuses. Hmmm.

Well done for passing the 'don't-let-Ros-do-NaNo' test!!!
