Hey Chuck,

I think you can do it and it will only partially suck. Some parts will be really, really amusing. And other parts will really suck. But it sure does lift the pressure that you CAN’T LOOK BACK and need to just KEEP WRITING. The little word coun thing began a nervous twitch for me last year.

What’s the name of the super hero group? Or do I have to wait? And Are you going to blog each days writing? That seems crazy to me, but lots of folks do it.

Aw, man– I signed up last year and made it already to Nov 2nd before I gave up. I consider it a personal best. But you’re a much better writer and seem to have better stick-to-itiveness than I do. I am looking forward to read what comes of your November.

Jess, are you talking about wanting to read mine, or Matt’s? Because Matt’s a better writer since he does it for a living, and (I think this is safe to say on the internets) he has a goal of 50,000 words and a secondary but no less important goal that 1,000 of those be swear words.

My friend Joe also signed up, and he’s got a very cool concept for it that I think is awesome.

The subtext here is that I think all my friends should sign up for it. Not only will it give them the joy of creative satisfaction, but it’ll keep them from wanting to read mine.
