nonesensed: Childermass after his encounter with the Raven King (Childremass has had a rough day)
Due to, well, everything that's been revealed about NaNoWriMo's many and awful issues, I've finally deleted my account on their site, and I'm having emotions about that.

If you haven't heard of NaNoWriMo before, it stands for National Novel Writing Month and is a challenge where you write 50 000 words on a project during the month of November. I've been doing NaNoWriMo successfully every year since 2011. It's the one month a year when I've been able to "force/allow" myself to write, because it's been an official challenge other people are doing at the same time, that's fairly well-known.

I'll still try to write 50k+ words during the upcoming month. I've transferred all my data from the NaNo site to TrackBear. I'm even in both a Discord group and a Tumblr challenge that's aiming to cheer each other on and keep the writing going.

It'll be all right. I've not actually lost anything. Not really. Just having strong End of an Era vibes right now and had a rough day at work. Thus, mopey post.

Will hopefully be bright-eyed and full of writing-cheer tomorrow!
