Lots of NaNoWriMo posts this week as many writers prepare for the challenge of writing a book in the month of November. :)

Thanks, as ever, Elizabeth, for these great links! There are so many this time for NaNoWriMo! Not sure I’m going to plunge in, but I give those who do so much credit for it. Wishing success for all who participate.
I’m participating, but not officially. That’s because I’m cheating badly! I’ve got a half-finished book that I need to complete and like their tracking tools. :)
So many NaNo tips! This will be a crazy month for some.
Alex–It sure will be! I’ve always thought it came at such a busy time (Thanksgiving!)
Elizabeth: Thanks for including me in your list. Good luck with your unofficial NaNo! :-)
