Got a little way into NaNoWriMo (further than the word count suggests, but not much) a few days ago, looked at what else was going on this month, and decided that it simply wasn't going to work.

While I hate to admit defeat, I'm going to feel better about the rest of the month if I do so now, so this is to announce that I'm ditching my NaNoWriMo project in favour of keeping up with my other commitments, especially a pair of forum-based RPGs and the goings on of my SWG guild and my WoW guild.

My apologies to those who were looking forward to it being finished. Go and read Dan's instead, it's great (although I'm several days behind reading it, due to being on holiday this week). I was pretty sure of myself at the start of this, but while I've managed this kind of things in the past I just wasn't with the story this time, and as always I'm far too lazy to actually force myself to put that much effort into something that isn't giving easy returns.

Good luck to anyone else who is working on it, and maybe I'll get organised and plan something more coherent for next year. But I kind of doubt it.
