Yay 
I think now is an appropriate juncture in the proceedings, to issue a stern warning to the participants, concerning the gratuitous sex and violence and Sado-Masochistic content. Can we have a lot more this year, please.
Good luck to you all, and have an enjoyable time. [size=150]:[/size][size=150]-[/size][size=150]))[/size]

Sure, planning on it. Do I have to write about it too though?
Nothin’ gratuitous about it!
Chapter briefs are now all written. I just need to go through the character sheets, and I’m done. Phew!
Word on the street is, we’re looking at another 'Fifty Shades of Puce’ Well done Pigfender… well done
Fluff
Let me know if you want me to build you a timeline 
You know, completely to be helpful, and nothing at all to do with seeing and preparing for my part in advance.
Matt
I dunno…i think he is lookin fer a bit of a advantage over the rest of us. i wouldnt beleive him…
Go set up the nanowrimo discounts on your web page instead Matt, will ya?
hehehe, thanks Matt :), I was there last Saturday or Sunday. 
[edit] I just downloaded my trial copy.
Two more sleeps!
Well, officially it’s three, but who can sleep the last night before NIAD? I suspect I won’t be sleeping much during NIAD…
Really? Glad to see an interesting approach that works! For me it’s absolutely impossible write a story without working on the characters first!
Looking forward to it!
Nice try, Matt! 
Ha! Tell me about it! Not. Long. Now!
Oh, I had the characters first. The character sheets are for your benefit!
Thanks BethCutter. Now We all have to wait.
Sheesh, I was almost a no-show. I’d turned up here just to read this very post and could not get in with my time honored pw. Well, it didn’t help that I forgot who I was here. But, finally I’m in. I hope, the gremlins that started it all won’t put in an appearance on d-day.
So can this timeline thingy be used to outline the timeline for historical events in a story? I’ve been on the hunt for such a tool for some time now. In fact I still have the timeline I crafted from a tablet of graph paper strung across my wall.
Yes it can! It’s definitely worth you downloading a trial version and trying it out if timelining is your thing!
It wasn’t just Beth’s fault. There were other culprits!
Well, it’s just gone 9am in Truro, UK, so that means there are just under 15 hours to go until Novel-in-a-Day 3: With a Vengeance!
If you are one of the lucky 25 participants, you can expect an email from rog@pigfender.com at or just after midnight UK time with your briefing pack. Keep an eye out, and maybe add it to your address book to avoid the dreaded junk mail filter.
I can’t wait! Really looking forward to it. I have warned my husband that he is to furnish a constant supply of espresso tomorrow, even if I am already wild-eyed and shock-haired with caffeine overdose. Good luck everyone, and a big thank you in advance to Rog!
Good luck tomorrow everyone.
In spite of my reservations about my contribution last year, I really wish I was in this year …
But although I am allowed to take the splint off my left hand while I am in such “safe” (hah!) environments as home, and am encouraged to use it while typing for short stretches, after 5 weeks of immobilisation, I am having to re-educate it, and typing is somewhat uncomfortable and even slower than just using my right hand!
So I have to content myself with just looking forward to reading the new magnum opus.
Mr X
This is why I don’t advocate doing any kind of activity at all in the months preceding October. 
Glad to hear that your wing is on the mend, Mr X.
Siren, until I read your post I thought I’d gotten myself completely prepared. An Espresso-Serf! How could I be so short-sighted?
A tad more than 12 hours now.
Thank you for your hard work that makes this possible pigfender; I am looking forward to your e-mail tomorrow, first thing in the morning
