NaThWriMo

[theyellowhobbit]

So November is National Novel Writing Month, usually called "NaNoWriMo." I've never successfully done a NaNo before. The goal is to get to 50,000 words by the end of November.

I know I've been doing the whole steady work pace thing, but I'm seriously considering making NaNo into NaThWriMo- National Thesis Writing Month, and writing 50,000 words of my thesis, or the entire thing if it comes out to less than that. I still have no clue how long it will be.

Of course, I'm not even waiting for November to begin. I'm just thesisizing now.

And my cuisinart works, once again, so I'm making biscotti. I finished the 1st baking, but I think I'll go to bed now and wake up early tomorrow to cut them and do the second baking and get everything ready for JitW.

Geez, this thesis really is like your magnum opus or something.

Good luck with it!

I've been thinking of the Very Same Thing. Maybe we should start a movement or something along those lines *scratches head*

That might not be such a good idea. Encouraging others to do this would probably just promote world insanity. What we really need is a support group (maybe we can find a wealthy PhD who remembers what it was like to write a thesis to donate funding for things like chocolate, coffee, and professional massages.)
