3 things: disks & stories, dice, and Death Note
1. I am moderately peeved. See, I was hit by an idea last night and wrote another piece of "An Ounce of Prevention" -- yes, against my better judgment it seems to have become a WIP -- but I can't post it because my latest transfer disk has gone kerflooey.
Electronic media degeneration is such a pain.
Anyway, I am determined that this story, at least, will not have any sort of update schedule. I will write it when I damn well feel like it, and no oftener than that.

2. I've worked out an amusing way to decide what to write during NaNo. I'm going to buy two 6-sided dice, which lets me roll eleven potential numbers (2-12), and I've assigned ten stories a number, with the final one being 'choice.' Probabilities are weighted so the more important stories are more likely to come up: ie, "Beauty" is 7, because I really need that done by Thanksgiving, whereas "Harvest," an Ekanu story, is 2, because that has no time-pressure at all.
My dad suggested this method, when I told him about my subverted version of NaNo. He's not much use at emotional stuff, but he does have a lot of nifty ideas!

3. ( I've been rereading Death Note... )
