Last Chance For WriMos!

This is just a reminder to the NaNoWriMo participants: This is your last day to hit the 50,000 word mark. Be sure to get your novel word count verified at the official site, www.nanowrimo.org. And don't forget--if you win, let me know, too, so you can get your Lion lauds, applause, and prizes. Writers, rejoice.

...and yes, peanut gallery, I know I need to get my word count verified, too. Thanks. :)

Perhaps I'm opening up a yummy can o' oligochaetes by posting this link, but I think it's newsworthy. I'll step back and let the comments flow, but not before adding this to the mix: Do you think this might be part of the reason people still use brick and mortar shops? By the way, I don't keep customer data online, being a quill pen and vellum babe, myself. Just so's ya know....
