GYWO comment

I'm super-behind on GYWO, even on the lowest word count. I blame work.

If I had a project this November it would make me on target, but I don't. Even if I had the energy I wouldn't try it officially, anyway. Smarter people than I have spoken about NaNoWriMo and its new sponsor. All I have are some vague thoughts about how it's kind of pointless to have an "effort-saving" tool* being pushed by an event where the effort is the point.

Anyway, I'm determined to write SOMETHING for Five Figure Fic Exchange, and I still have Fic-In-A-Box to finish. So it's not like I'll have nothing by the end of November.

*I put that in quotes because anyone who's read a long piece of fiction written by Gen AI knows that the editing will not be fun. Honestly, if NaEdWriMo was an actual event and not a joke offshoot, THAT would make sense to be sponsored by a Gen AI company. I still wouldn't like it, but it would make sense. Editing fifty thousand words of that sounds like a nightmare to me.
