Ta-Da!
I've done it to myself again--spent 30 days proving that writing only a couple of thousand words a day (even skipping holidays and entire weekends altogether) produces a a couple of hundred pages of manuscript. And even this slap-dash, quantity is everything approach results in some interesting characters, snappy dialogue and surprisingly thoughtful passages.
Why can't I do this the other eleven months of the year? Rephrase: Why don't I do this the other eleven months of the year? Or, since revising is not nearly as word-intensive and I now have four-and-a-half roughly drafted manuscripts, why don't I spend the equivalent amount of time editing those manuscripts into something I can submit for publication?
So... Ta-da! and celebration for the completion of another year of Nanowrimo.
Resolved: By the time Nanowrimo 2007 rolls around, at least one finished manuscript will be in the hands of potential agents. Stay tuned for details.
