And if You don't then don't feel bad. My first nano... I signed up and forgot. My second I got like 35k and quit. My third Nano I did the same thing. Then in 2007 I hit 51k the bar turned from green to purple on my Birthday and I was hooked. Last year they changed the earliest possible win date up a few days which made me sad. But, it didn't stop my striving for 150 k. This year if I can write just under 250k I will hit a lifetime achievement of 1 million words. With the way my arm is acting, it isn't going to happen but I would be happy to just finally hit 150k

If I can do it and home school 6 kids so can you.
