November is the maddest month

[lots of links swiped from penknife]

nanoflail - for fan writers attempting NaNo this year, whether writing fan or original novels. Discussion topic today: what are you trying to get done before NaNo? [I am desperately trying to clean the decks in so many respects, my my.]

And if you're not doing NaNo, but still want to participate in the general air of frenetic writing? There are also the marvellous wrisomifu (for trying to write just about anything) and mini_nanowrimo (for committing yourself to writing at least 100 words of fiction per day).

So, I've been really good about not signing up for exchanges, on account of aforementioned NaNo. However, I am thinking that Yuletide's deadline of December 19th means it is feasible in a post-NaNo world, yes? Fandom nominations going on right now for those planning on participating. What to pick, what to pick?

(It occurs to me I need to get some new writing icons. Writing a 50,000 word novel with a quill would be horrendous.)
