This will be my first NaNoWriMo... I have a story I've been working on for about 5 years, I think this will be a needed jumpstart.

When should I expect the calendar to be posted?

From what I read this is all I need to do to "register".
To record my finished writing day's accomplishments in October is to post here as well, right?

If I missed something key please let me know now before October arrives, thanks.
