After several massive problems — problems that actually required me to do my NaNoWriMo writing longhand for three days this week, I’ve finally gotten a new computer. It was coming anyway, and with Windows 7 now out, it just didn’t make any sense to keep sinking money into that thing in the hopes that it would get better. I definitely am not going back to that particular brand of laptop, and after 24 hours of playing with my new toy, I like it quite a bit.
I’m hammering away now, trying to finish up tonight’s writing, and it’s going well. With this weekend off work for Thanksgiving, I intended to get a Hell of a lot finished. I may not actually finish the story — there’s more left than I expected at this point — but I’m pretty sure I can cross the 50,000-word mark before Thanksgiving. Wish me luck.



I know that this is a couple of days late, but “good luck!”
