... because I'm always crazy enough to sign up for NaNoWriMo!

To make things worse, I'm going to Taiwan for a week and a half, which will effectively eat up two weeks of writing time. My plan is to get a lot of writing done on the flight out and back. 12500 words is reasonable for a flight, right? I got a shiny new netbook specifically for it too (the Lenovo S12 ideapad gets the Bonsai's thumbs up).

Last year, NaNo started while I was at MangaNext. I'm a bit bummmed that there is no MangaNext this year, but I guess it's for the best. I think I'd be a zombie if I had to juggle that along with the trip this year.

I'm hoping NaNo will give me some motivation to do something. I've been in a bit of a rut. It didn't help that I caught a cold two weeks ago, and bits of it are still lingering in my system. I can't be sure, but I just haven't been feeling of clear mind since I caught the cold. Hopefully, things will clear up soon (they'd better! I'm going to be really pissed if it interferes with my trip).
