NaNoWriMo Update
I haven't said much this month about my progress on the whole write-your-novel-in-a-month venture that I undertook at the start of November, but allow me to do so now. I have just passed the 37,000 word mark and that leaves me the daunting task of writing 13,000 words between now and close of day Wednesday the 30th. Can I do it, I hear you ask? Well, the answer is "yes, yes I can." I managed to scratch out ten thousand words yesterday by sheer brute force and if that is any indication I think I'll be able to handle this next pile by the deadline given.
At least I intend to. I might have to hole up and space out and be completely useless for the next two and a half days, but I will do it, by gum! (Buy gum! Hmmm. That gives me a plot idea!)
So, if you'll excuse me, I have some heavy-duty novelling to do.

You'll make your wordcount goal if you work really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really hard.
You can do it, I know you can! You've come this far under a deadline, you can reach that goal. So go for it!
St. Kan-kan, you are a bad influence. ; )
Thank you, Tara! I can DO eet!
Dude, I don't think you're gonna make it. Yeah, it's not looking good. I'm just sayin.
you can do it!
By the way, i love the old fashion picture of you! =P

Brat! :P
So put on some Polka music, curl up your toes and type words. I happen to know the sturdy stuff you are made of and have no doubt that you'll do this. Your foremere and I are rooting for you. So is Rufio. And the minister's cat. And that little ray of sunshine. All rooting for you. Now, write!
Thanks, Dabu. I just finished another four thousand. And that was at work! Imagine what I can do when someone's not paying me to do something else!

Good luck! I am in awe of your dedication...
Go Sarah, go Sarah, go Sarah! It's all coasting from here on. 10,000 words in one day? I think you can write in your sleep!
We're saving a place for you in the Winner's Circle!
Good Luck and all...

Thanks, Bazza. I'm three thousand words shy of it right now. With any luck I'll finish it before I leave "work." Just don't tell my employer...
