I am also a big winner, and I finished my story. I shall not hide it because I like attention. It can use a ton of editing, though, and input from people who know more about space science than I do. Anyway,
I hope that works!!
Finished!
Look at me. I’ve got that yellow tape across my chest from bursting through the finish line. My story’s not quite done, but the NaNoWriMo folks don’t care: I hit 50,000 words and they gave me this keen icon. Wasn’t that nice?
Now, to finish the story and find a nice dark drawer to put it in for the next year, or maybe ten…
Me Two!

apparently “peace on earth” is right out
I’m trying really hard, but I don’t have a response to this:
A homeowners association in southwestern Colorado has threatened to fine a resident $25 a day until she removes a Christmas wreath with a peace sign that some say is an anti-Iraq war protest or a symbol of Satan.
There’s more info (but no more clarity) at the Yahoo News article. I see that it’s all about the HOA exercising their power, but WTF?
UPDATE, via Wil Wheaton dot Net: It looks like HOA board has apologized and “called the incident a misunderstanding.” Uh-huh. I hope the misunderstander gets punished appropriately.
nanowrimo day 26 – the home stretch
I just finished Chapter 12, which means there are only 4 to go, about 6000 words. I’m on track to finish this just in time, assuming there’s no blatant falling down between now and Thursday night. I may not blog between now and then, because it’s been hard to think of anything but finishing. Yesterday I wrote 3500 words just to catch up after a couple of days of slacking, and let me tell you that was some tense writing.
So, here we go. Wish me luck, and I’ll see you again on December 1st, with my winner’s badge or on it. (Okay, it’s a horrible metaphor. I’m getting used to crap writing.)
