Love the sleek new look... like a sexy new pair of black leather boots.

As for NaNo, I didn't *win* at 31,500, but I did learn what I had hoped, how to keep the writer's block and inner editor at bay, and have already started putting the lessons to work on my non-NaNo WIP.

If I find a basket of unicorns, I shall send it posthaste.

Not doing the NaNo thing. Too busy freaking out over trying to write the perfect Breakup Scene O'Doom in my novella. Must've rewritten this thing about 50,000 times already...

Also, lovin' the new bloggerific fanciness!

2009-12-01T15:10:55.239-05:00

Love the new look! I agree with Derek, now I feel like I need to be clean before I read the blog.
I think you should have a contest in which the prize is the support team for a day. :)
Congrats on the rejection too! I'm still awaiting my basket of unicorns.

And, Suzy, there are no losers in NaNo.

Thank goodness there are no more words like fuck on the main part of your blog. Now this children's writer can go ahead and safely follow you without offending anyone by proxy.

Oh bum, I've just noticed it's still on your profile. Oh, well -- I'll follow in secret instead.

Love the smooth new look.

2009-12-01T10:35:50.987-05:00

I got almost halfway to 50K, so I'm a loser.

But I did manage to unexpectedly appropriate the Oakland Earthquake of '89 for my own literary gain, so that was good.

"Putting us in a nice outfit does not change the fact that we are bonkers."

I laughed out loud at this at work and then had to pretend I found something extraordinarily funny in Publisher's Lunch.

Loretta,
I think NaNo is going to be giving out procrastinator's awards, but they're going to wait til next year.

Very pretty! And major congrats on the encouraging rejection!

Also, congratulations to all the NaNoWriMo winners. Alas, I was not among them. I only got < 3000 words done. But then, I didn't start until yesterday. *G* I should get a procrastinators award. ;)

Very snazzy :)

Congrats on your nano success - I was lucky/crazy/exhausted enough to be a winner. Now planning on sleeping through the next week!

i like it!

2009-11-30T19:54:41.629-05:00

I missed the picture of you with your horse as well, and your motto to boot, since they instantly announce the uniqueness of your site, but yep, I found them in your About Me.

And congrats on the PR from the PLM. I haven't read those since college, but I'd look up a copy if it had a piece written by you.

Congratulations! The new site looks great, and I ...

2009-11-30T19:54:06.940-05:00

Congratulations! The new site looks great, and I love love love your happy rejection news!

Since you asked, I finished my godawful NaNo novel and am as thrilled as if I had turned piss back into Patron.

2009-11-30T19:13:18.511-05:00

we loves the new look

we trusts that you will not be corrupted by snazziness--the blogospherical equivalent of breast implants :P

we still likes you for your brains but not on the zombie way.

basket of unicorns? much coolness. we has never received such an auspicious missive as a PERSONALIZED rejection nor any form of encouragement from professional publishing types.

All right, I am happy now that I know the General is still around!

The General is still with you, Author-friends! He is resting quietly in the "About" section of our new website, sipping off his fresh bottle of Jameson (thanks Lydia!) and eating babies.

My NaNo novel has been shamelessly abandoned. And I am suspicious of your new, sexy blog, but will trust that the snark will continue unabated...

CONGRATS on your PERSONALIZED REJECTION! I am very excited for you.

This looks very cool, but I miss your avatar. I think the other look had more attitude.

2009-11-30T14:59:40.054-05:00

Look at you, wearing the fancy pants! I kinda miss the naaaasty warrior pic though. Just sayin'! The layout is sweet though. Well done, support team!

I would like a non-form rejection with a request for more, please :) That is weirdly awesome.

I wrote 35K words without meaning to this month. Then I went back and ripped into the MS, took out 6K, rewrote 4K more...you know the drill. So, all in all, it was made of win. But not intentionally. It could have gone either way, really. Inspiration is one picky bitch, no?

2009-11-30T14:27:20.823-05:00

Hello blogger friend,

Wow - the Internets are getting fancy. Love the new look. Your Support Team did good.

Congrats on your PERSONALIZED REJECTION!

(I have to write 25,000 words to win in NaNo, oh well.)

Very nice! Think your Support Team would come work...

2009-11-30T13:33:37.013-05:00

Very nice! Think your Support Team would come work on blog? Or, is that like asking a nun for sex positions? (Meaning, it just ain't gonna happen.)

2009-11-30T13:31:02.920-05:00

I've already hung my NaNo winner's certificate on my wall and put the logo on my blog site where I have recounted my NaNo experience in today's post.
I'm pleased. I got a good start on a novel that might have some possibilities, posted on my blog everyday in November with fairly substantial posts, and did a lot of commenting on other blogs (and my comments usually aren't short).
Really put a big emphasis on writing this past month.

2009-11-30T13:27:58.757-05:00

These are some fancy pants you're wearing, but so sleek and nice! Pretty, pretty blog!

And hey - I'm a winner! NaNo says so! But how can I be past 50k and the story's not done??

Please make haste with the book shopping lists! I need them.
