It’s national novel writing month. Are you writing mo? I am unofficially writing mo! Instead of signing up and committing to write 50,000 words in November, I’m just going to write a bunch on my first draft and and proclaim it a victory on December 1st. Mmmkay?
I like to call it NaNoWriAWholeBunchofWords.
I am currently at 34,000 words, 10,000 of which I’ve written in the past 12 days. I am also finding myself very productive at making lists of other things to do mo of:
NaNoGrocSto Nah, not going to the grocery store but…
YahLet’sEatMo (and Mo)
NaNooShazBot A month of Mork & Mindy reruns. Break out your orange down vest and rainbow suspenders! Curling my bangs in anticipation!
NaNaNahNahHeyHeyHeyGoodbye A month of High School Marching Band nightmares, in which I lean first left instead of right (ouch ouch ouch ouch, hey hey hey goodOUCH)
YahDerHeyDere! A month of UPers (translation for non-Midwesterners: Upper Peninsula people who talk funny)
NaNoWIFI (Do these places still exist?)
NaNoGetItYourself In which I foster my children’s independence
NaNoWriBread You call this a deli?
NaNohNooNeeNah Let’s practice our vocal exercises, altogether now.
NaNohReallyPleaseStopNow ((okay))
NaNoWriMo + YahLet’sEatMo + SitOnCouchMo= SeeMyGutGro
34,000!! Way to go!! I am nearly at 25,000…how many more until I can stop and say it’s a book?
You are a dirty, dirty cheater. Wish I’d thought of that. I’m at 23,079.
Wait? Did I miss the “everyone is writing a book” memo?
I’m ok with the Eatmo portion….
NaNaBooBoo – where you turn into the age of 5 and poke fun at everyone.
Oh! I wanna come up with one but…. I’m dry.
something about slouching and eating more hotdogs month.
Wooooottt Ann you’ve added video and surround sound to your blog since I’ve been in the bloggy-sphere last. Going to go listen to your mother and see the armpit video now!
NaNoBloU…you either get this or in this case you don’t
23,613. But I like all of yours better than I like any of mine.
Ohmigosh! I am laughing my guts out! Though I’m officially nanowrimo, I can’t quite say I’m writing mo’. 34,000. Good for you since I’m still at 2,400. But I’m of the mindset that slow and steady will get me to 50,000 (with the last 30,000 coming in the last 10 days)…hopefully.
Anyhoo…I stopped by via The Empress’ Blog over at Good Day Regular People. I’m glad I did. This is hysterical!
You are on a roll! Good for you and your 34,000 words, lady!!
I fell off the wagon at 10,000 words. Fiction ain’t my thing-o.
Boy did I need this laugh. I’m at 18k words and now I’ve got NaNoAchoooooo! with a side order of body aches, fever and damn it! who gave me this plague?
I did Nano several years, but have missed the last two. You make me want to try it again. NaNoWriDec? Prolly not. 34 grand in wordage is huge. Congratulations!
Cheers,
Casey
I am at 68,987 words now. At this rate I expect to be at around 100K in a week and best selling author in three.
Ok, best selling author might take a bit longer, but a man has to have dreams, right.
I have written 25K words. Getting bored with this book. Considering an earthquake or murder subplot to spice it up.
I loe nananoreallypleasestopnow.
Just too easy to do, isn’t it?
You are so so funny. There. I just wrote six words. Only 49, 994 to go.
That’s a lot of words, lady.
And this is a lot of funny.
Between the genius and fabulous comments, I’m at a loss for words. You crack me up.
High five-o.
(You get the idea.)
I go nuttin but your list is very funny.
Great job on the writing!

If I totaled all my posts together I might come up with 8,000 words over THREE years. I have to go now, I clearly have some catching up to do
NaNotClev Enough to think of anything on my own.
That is way impressive. You clearly don’t know that you can watch Family Ties reruns on the Hub.
Hey – way to go!
I feel like I’ve accomplished a lot when I get my hair blow-dried all the way through…
Go, Ann!
YouCanDoIt…(wait, does that work? it doesn’t sound right…)
I like anything unofficial since for some reason, I’m more likely to actually do it. And I LOVE NaNooShazBot. I forgot about Mindy’s bangs (who could ever forget about Mork’s rainbow suspenders?)
