Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you ... the first NaNoWriMo wank of the year!

If you've been to the boards since October, you'll know they've been slow, and that the search function has had to be disabled on and off several times to deal with the load. if you've been around for previous Octobers, you know this is pretty much par for the course whenever that year's boards go up and registration opens -- the site gets flooded, things slow down, the NaNo techies whack things with sticks until things settle down to normality somewhere in the first week of November, usually.

This year, however, this is all causing a smattering of wankery:

"I'm taking my toys and going home!"
"Me too!"
"Me three!"

Small, but tasty. Like aa petit four, in a way.

me, i just wish my t-shirt, mug and merit badges would get here already. woe.

Well, to some extent I wouldn't call my NaNo novel a real novel. But that's mostly because I'd call it a half-finished, poorly-researched, unedited novel with extensive historical, scientific, and linguistic inaccuracies.

(Which totally ups my word count.)

True, there is that. But, you know, I sort of like to think that my NaNo novel from last year could become a real novel, if I would just get off my ass and edit it.

Exactly. It's not the NaNoness of the novel that makes it unnovellike.
