Who U Callin' a Cheetah?

I'm a filthy Cheetah! Apparently, one of several this year in the 2004 NaNoWriMo. I made my official confession in the NaNoWriMo's Filthy Cheater's Club forum. In good faith, just as an AA member might, I bared my soul, only to be attacked; well to feel attacked, I should say. I can't know another person's intent. I entered my I-ching calm, zen-like response.

I was also questioned by someone in the NM NaNoWriMo group, who noticed I'm card-carrying member of the 14th Club (late arrival, see below.) Here's that reply: In poker we call it a bluff (these old forums are gone... sorry, you cannot read the actual remarks.)

BTW, I have a draft of the 3874 I wrote Nov 16. I doubt that I'll "publish" any more of my AKS novel here, but I may link from my website. Back to cheating...

the 14th Club

I don't know if the others will agree with me, but I've dubbed a group of us NaNoWriMo's who joined or started over on Nov 14, 2004, as the 14th Club. The link goes to that part of the forum.

I've got a complex linking, blogging thing going now. I have TWO blogs. My old Zenara Blog, where I'll track and ramble on about status, has my Progress Meter and blog ring of other Xanga NaNoWriMo blogggers.

I'll link to both blogs on my real website: ZiaLink.org

I haven't decided yet where I'll actually create the new WORDS. Here or there? the blog is easier, but I'm worried about protecting it (ha!) I should be so lucky that it will need protecting!

Let's go... the clock is ticking away. 16 days to write 25,200 NEW words. yikes...
