• 08:28:58: @Alex_Beecroft I threw something basic and free together. Fingers crossed there'll one day be a reason to go fancier!
  
• 09:25:54: I've got a half-day today! Why can't all Mondays be that way?
  
• 09:30:18: OMG, sudden surprise snow! Where did that come from?!
  
• 09:34:35: Gasp! Maybe nobody else will be able to make it work because of the surprise snow? Dare I hope...
  
• 09:45:44: Aw, the surprise snow has stopped already. Well, that was probably the highlight of my day
  
• 09:55:11: @unamccormack I'm already assuming I'll fall over at least once today, since even the tiniest amount of snow renders me unable to walk
  
• 10:32:12: @Alex_Beecroft Thank you! That would be lovely ^_^ http://tessamorelock.weebly.com/
  
• 11:08:04: It's amazingly hard to motivate yourself when your boss isn't in #nomeisabademployee
  
• 11:36:14: It's spreading! That's now three members of staff who have lost the ability to pronounce my name. How? Why?
  
• 11:45:26: @Chick_Witch Eek, that's just annoying!
  
• 11:51:26: @Chick_Witch Jorgon?! That's unbelievable. I get called Mary and Amy on the phone, but at least those are actual names!
  
• 12:58:59: Only an hour til home time! Half days make me so happy
  
• 13:08:55: It's the last Anti-Nano check-in before the Winter Write-a-Thon starts! http://naomi-jay.livejournal.com/336964.html
  
• 13:16:27: I am finding the name "Mr Dixit" far funnier than I should
  
• 13:51:27: @Scarimonious When I rule the world, cornfields will be the first thing to go
  
• 14:35:52: @Scarimonious But the alien children and their demon god are probably right behind the next row!
  
• 15:20:47: RT @QueeredFiction: Swamp Dweller reviews BLOOD FRUIT "A surprisingly awesome read." http://bit.ly/f7XKq4
  
• 17:57:12: #amwriting. Aiming to finish the first draft of Night and Chaos this week
  
• 18:50:24: Oooh, I should be seeing the cover art for Demonised soon!
  
• 18:54:50: @AndreaBlythe I'm pretty bouncy at the prospect!
  
• 19:04:09: @Skarrah I think so. Apparently we're just waiting for someone somewhere's final thumbs up
  
• 19:18:01: @LABurtonhorror You should join my Winter Write-a-Thon! I've been so productive this month it's crazy!
  
• 20:05:29: 300 words to hit 34k on Night and Chaos, and then I need a break. My hands are complaining
  
• 20:06:09: @K8JohnsonAuthor Our old cat used to do that to our spaniel. She'd get in the bed, but crush herself up as far away from his as possible
  
• 20:06:32: @K8JohnsonAuthor And then she'd sit there looking terribly worried while the cat looked terribly smug
  
• 20:35:34: Ack, the hands can't take it. Wrapping up for the night

According to my calculations...

...I've written 18k this month on Night and Chaos. I've also completed the second draft of BLOOD HUNT, adding 3k to that. I wrote a short story that came to 8k and another that came to just short of 2k. That makes a grand total for Anti-Nano of 31k! Which actually means I (just) exceeded my daily goal of 1k a day for Anti-Nano. AND both of those short stories have been accepted for publication!

I want to celebrate with this cake:

 

But I can't bake cakes, so never mind. I hope everyone else found Anti-Nano as useful as me, and I hope you all enjoyed each other's excerpts as much as I did!

Anyway, as we should all know, wwathon  kicks off tomorrow, so we have two more months of thrilling good times ahead! Huzzahs!

DEMONISED has a cover!

( And it is awesome! )

 

Thanks to the incredibly talented Jinger Heaston (who also did the cover for AFTERLIFE) for an amazing job! ^_^
