12 hours ago ago from Eleventh Stack

Unfortunately, after she pried it from my hands she checked it out, so I can't tell you much more about it. However, I found a recent ...

Novel, I Believe in You

21 hours ago ago from LL Word

This email from Chris Baty, founder of NaNoWriMo , was so cute that I just had to share: Dear Writer, I ran into your 2009 NaNoWriMo novel yesterday, and it said that you two are currently taking a break. I offered my condolences and mentioned that I'd probably be seeing you today. It quickly scribbled out a note for me to give you. The note seemed kind of personal, so I didn't read it. Here it is! Hi! Come back to me. I'll be ...
