Nanowrimo

It's National Novel Writing Month, and I've signed on. The premise - write a half-assed, unedited novel of 50,000 words in 30 days. It's more gratifying than I ever imagined. What a joy, to unleash the creative juices, to surrender to the muse, to let your fantasies come true. It's more fun than writing proposals, editing academic book chapters, and most obviously, more fun than grading papers.
