National Novel Writing Month 2009

Anybody in? I'm going to try, and I'm compiling data for it now. And I'm practicing my form also; I want to work on a fifty-thousand word lipogrammatical book.

In light of my failure to come even close to completion last year, my general lack of enthusiasm this year, and the various other projects on my plate, I've come to two decisions:

1.) I'm not doing NaNo this year.
2.) I will, however, finish my album before December 1 rolls around.

I'm about 70% in. Up from 60% yesterday.

I'm about 3500 words into my book. A bit off my daily mark, but not bad, taking all things into account.

Sad that you can't put an author on your book, but for just "Jim".
