Emo!Nano'er Spot

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.

Having a baby so close to NaNo. The fact that I'm bfing her which takes up a lot of time. Next year, she'll have cut down her need for nursing. Now she's this little attachment to my boobs. Between that, having a plot I didn't really care about, and battling some post partum depression, I think this NaNo was doomed from the start.

And with any luck, my 3rd year will be my winning year.

Aww, baby. Congrats, if I haven't said so any other time in the last two months.

Yeah, i can see how that would be hard. Kinda difficult to get at the keyboard with a bood attachment :)

3rd time's the charm!

Thanks! She's such an awesome little thing. (I'm about to nickname her Brooke for the way she babbles on. :D )

That's what I'm saying. 3rd time's gonna be my charm. I'm gonna have my win and than some. *determined*
