Get me out of here! I should be doing nano!

BookCat · 11-01-2017, 03:30 PM

Right now I should be writing, but here I am checking MR's Writing Corner. I'm doing nano this year to get a first draft finished. After midnight, I managed 500 words, but need to keep the momentum up.

So if you see me on MR, please remind me that I should be writing.

Is anyone else doing nano? (BC realises that question will lead to more time on MR checking for answers ... so skulks off ...)

Not responding because you should be writing.

Gregg Bell · 11-01-2017, 07:17 PM

They have apps that will give you an electric shock if you visit MR when you should be writing.

My word count is on target plus a few hundred, so popped by to say hello.

Is it just me that hears "nano" and thinks of Mork and Mindy? "Na-Nu Na-Nu" (with the appropriate hand gesture). Just sayin'.

Get back to work, BC!

Rooting for you, BookCat and pendragginp.

Too much work commitment for me to join you, this year.

It's good to see I'm not the only one that remembers. I've never looked at eggs quite the same way since.

I wondered, for a moment, when I typed that, if folks would look at it and think, "what the hell is she on about now?," but I figured that there was a good chance you'd get it.
