As I said previously, I always considered NaNoWriMo to be...dumb. Or, rather, not for me.
Well it seems to be a self-fulfilling prophecy, because I'm failing hard at NaNoWriMo.
I blame school. Since I got back from World Fantasy, I've had either a test or a paper every day. Today is literally my first free day since then, and I still have a paper due tomorrow at 11 in the morning.
Added bonus: Super Meat Boy consumes my life, and we just got Rock Band 3 (with keyboard!) so I'm going to be busy for a while.
All together, I am debating just working on planning portions for Effulgent Corruption and Gears of Anbar rather than actually write. I need to get back in an Effulgent Corruption mood for January (I LOVE that story, it just kills me because its so hard to write).
But yeah, I'm a failure, but at least I didn't fail in May or September with my other two books. So I have that going for me. I would really like to write another book (four in a year would be a nice thing to throw around when needed), but at this point I'm not certain how possible that is.
However, I am going to get Alphas out for Steelgods soon, which should take some time as well.
So that's it. I'm going back to playing Rock Band 3.

Yeah... I'm pretty sure NaNoWriMo is for people who HAVEN'T already written a bunch of books, haha. You've already demonstrated you've got the rocks for it, and editing is what comes after the writing, anyway. Why break teeth over it?
I think you just can't work with someone else's deadline. Only yours. :D Nanowrimo is lame anyway.
