5. I did get placed in a cabin

but nobody's talking right now. I was out of town on a day trip yesterday and didn't feel like saying howdy using my phone, so I'll post a message today and see if anyone answers. But yeah, NaNo people don't communicate very frequently as a rule, I've found, because they're busy writing their stories instead. We all want a sense of community, but the more time we spend chatting, the less time we're contributing to the 50K count!

My first two November completions were the first and second half of the novel an agent just made me an offer on (ooh pardon my sentence structure there). My third win was my second novel, but I ended up not liking it very much (I wasn't that fond of my main character--I thought she was a bit of a pill--and I think the first person POV might not have been the best choice), so that one's under the bed right now. I might drag it out sometime in the future, but right now I'm working on a story I like way better.

As for summer time constraints...well, that's what staying up till 2 a.m. is for, right?
