Is anyone here participating in the National Novel Writing Month? It's a contest that began November 1st, and ends just before midnight on November 30th. The object of it is to write a small novel about 50,000 words long by the deadline. It may sound crazy, and stupid, but it really isn't. It's a great way to motivate those who always want to write, but don't seem to find the time to put their ideas on paper, to write. It most certainly has helped me. I'm at 25,000 something words now. It's a lot more fun than it sounds, you'll have to take my word on it. It's not too late to sign up, but you'll have a lot of writing to make up. If you are a fast writer though, you won't have too much of a problem. I wrote 11,000 words in one day on sunday. It was wicked fun. Visit ---> www.nanowrimo.org/ for more information. My NaNo page ---> www.nanowrimo.org/userinfo.php?uid=124459Wish me luck!

you aren't DONE yet? You're SCREWED! Mine's done already. I call it "The Catcher in the Rye II: I Can't Take These Phonies Anymore."
In all seriousness, though, you should give us free downloads of your book so that we can read it... before it's published. Also, if you become an incredible success for some reason, can I have some money? Thanks.

I threw a bunch a' barbeque on the barbeque and barbequed up a mess a' barbeque for the church barbeque.
Say that to a french chef in a fancy restaurant and watch his response. Try to sneak it into the conversation. Not too hard, considering he cooks for a living.
