I had a scary dream about NaNoWriMo. In the dream, I'd started writing, and was maybe a page or two into it. Things were going great. Then suddenly (I think someone reminded me, though for the rest of the dream I was alone) I realized that it was still October. I was trying to figure out how (a) I could not get caught and (b) how I could get rid of what I'd written. I couldn't delete it, because in my dream logic it felt like that would still be cheating, because then I'd have already written it and it would make it easier to write come November. So I was trying to figure out how to forget it or how to change my plot so that part wouldn't be in it... it was really scary. I woke up with my heart racing.

I'm sure I'll soon be dreaming about the fact that I have no plot yet; nightmare!
