This blog post is not untitled. This blog post has a title. That title is "Untitled". That title, "Untitled", refers not to this blog post, which has a title, but to something else, which currently does not. And is therefore untitled. Unlike this blog post, which is not untitled, because it has a title, which is "Untitled".

So, at the time I write this it is November 2, which means it is Day Two of, uh, NovelEmber, or Writing Month, or Novel Quest, or the November Writing Challenge, or... The Event Formerly Known as NaNoWriMo. (Oh, hey, speaking of Writing Month, that site finally seems to be functional. So I'll probably "officially" join that event too.) Which means that by today, to be on track with the 50,000-word goal (and honestly 50,000 words is short for a fantasy novel and I expect the final novel to be significantly longer) I should have written at least 1,667 words. (Well, that's...

Anyone who has read many of these blog posts will have noted that I often say I'm going to do things that I don't actually end up doing. At least not within the time frames I say I'm going to do them in. The reason for this, of course, is not because I am intentionally lying.

Anyway, another item has been added to the list. The list of things I said I was going to do that I didn't end up doing. Which, like my to-do list I've repeatedly referenced, is not an actual list written down anywhere. I'd said in a previous blog post that while the [https://wongery.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=55752 poll to...

So in my last blog post I enumerated the November novel-writing events I planned to participate in. Of the six events I listed, two seem to not actually be going on, or at least to not be ready yet. The site for Writing Month still shows the "coming soon" message, and while the site's creator has been posting occasional progress updates, most recently this last Wednesday... well, again, the main site still shows the "coming soon" message. As for Novel Quest, I am fairly certain one of the following three possibilities is true, but I'm not sure which: Either (a) this event also is not ready yet, (b) the event is completely uncentralized and requires people to choose to host and organize it locally, or (c) the event is fully functional and working just fine and I am just too stupid to...
