So while everyone is off posting their successes and wins (CONGRATS TO ALL OF YOU!), and Mean Mod Mo (alliteration... heh) is still sprinting and writing strong...

This mod has sadly thrown in the towel. Because for the first time in four NaNo years, I literally can not find the time to write, or the energy. And so, with my pitiful 12.5K, I will stand back and pat all of you on the back and be happy for your win while secretly plotting your deaths.

Just kidding. About the whole plotting deaths bit. Yeah.

This post here? Is for those who had to give up. Be it school, work, children, kidnapped by aliens... let's all mourn our loss together, and plot on what we can do differently next year to hit that 50K.

Cause you are all doing NaNo next year, right? You know you signed your souls away when you signed up for this. There's no choice. IT'S AN ADDICTION.

I've put out the cookies and hot chocolate (both with and without milk), and some carrots for you diet people who don't want cookies.

Come chat.

I gave up on the second because my mother died.
Then my father died on the fourteenth.

No, I am not making this up.

Dealing with siblings was worse than dealing with the funeral.
