I have found the key to writing.  Copious amounts of coffee.  As fast as it cool down and I can pour it down my gullet.   Mark the re-write god is shining on me today.  I have managed to plow through 2000 words of re-write today today in almost no time at all.  I don't know how good it is.  I will probably have to wait for the buzz to wear off but I got 2000 words down.  At this rate I am not worried about finishing my YA book before NaNo starts.   Heck, at this rate I might finish and write a novella before NaNo starts.  
Just kidding.   I am a glutton for punishment but I am not stupid.  Maybe a long short story, if I have time. 
Still have heard nothing from any publishers, other than Kate Sanger at From the Asylum and that was just a friendly heads up reply to a query I had written her last month.  (brain working faster than fingers and backspace being used way to frequently)
I am raising my coffee mug again and saluting all of us.   "Here is to finishing up projects before we plunge ourself into the madness that is November."

There's a certain comfort in knowing that I will only have one project (unless I get ambitious) in November.
Tell me about it. I have been trying to limit myself and have been doing a good job at that but I haven't been writing as much as I could be either.
Still. Debating. Nano. With. Self.
I'm basically coffee-allergic (with a chronic ulcer). I don't know how I'd make it...hurm
Can I borrow Mark this afternoon?
Go ahead Cate, I am running a chainsaw if the weather allows and won't be able to use him.
Will you toast me even if I'm not doing Nano? I've got my hands full finishing my WIP.
I will toast anything, who are we kidding, any reason to raise a glass to my lips.
