For the year, I’ve read 102 books, or 38,361 pages, which averages to 11 books a month, or 4,262 pages per month, and an average book length of 374 pages.

This will be my third year of NaNo. I'm really looking forward to exploring the idea that I have formed in my head. It seems really fun, unlike how last year's turned out. I'm also the Municiple Liason for the Fox Valley region. Last year we were challenged by a group from California to a weekend write-off. I'm going to have to see if they are up for it again this year. It was a blast. Plus, I have a secret weapon in Green Bay, if I can twist her arm into competiting again.
