Yeah, eleven hours at the cafe (and yes, we followed the Coffee House Rules and bought stuff and tipped generously throughout)… and the teenytiny screen with the NaNoWriMo site up… OK, maybe a little bit too much. But I scored 10,014 words and learned that pre-planning speeds things up even more, and taking the day off on November 1 is the very thing to do.

Though I was excessive today. Just a bit. Here on it’s me, the AlphaSmart Neo, and the iPod, with my eyes closed. Because really, I need them.
