Hey, another Toronto NaNo nut! Well, technically I'm in Peterborough, but close enough.
I've got a basic plot idea, a title and a few character ideas. Pretty thin start with only five days to go 'til zero hour, but I'm planning on figuring it out as I go along. Love that little animated typing dude, btw.
Uhhhh.......Prep?
desert rat: Hey neighbour! What's your NaNo user name?
rene: Hey, even for Nano there are plotters and pantsers!
redchurch: I've been trying to follow your posts, but they make me dizzy!
Love your animation! Work feels like that sometimes....
Thanks Nienke for dropping by my site; I've added you as a NaNo buddy too! Yeah, I've made the username thing a bit confusing; I'm fishcat over on NaNo, a sort of alter ego for desert rat as it were.
redchurch: trust me, it could just be me. I get glossy-eyed because I have a short attention span. Gonna work against me during NaNo tho.
Yay DR/FC!!!
I'm taking deep breaths...well, hyperventilating anyway.
Love the resources! I linked your blog to mine. Today's entry is "Less than 36 hours..." Good luck with Nano!
awesome animation! where'd you get it?
Just found the ani during one of my many surfs. LOL
Thanks for the links!
