Shiny stars

Chris Baty @ Fri, 2007-12-14 16:02

One of the ways we increase the likelihood of having a complete mental collapse in November is by writing novels alongside everyone else. This year, we hung one of the sweet new Young Writers Program charts in the office and logged everyone's progress with the help of some inspiring shiny stars.

At the Office of Letters and Light, we run on shiny stars.

The results: six winners (including board member and bazillion-time winner Kara Platoni) and only one mental collapse.

I like those odds!

Would it be possible to have chart like this that MLs can get for use at write-ins? I mean, we could make our own, but yours looks so cool and nanoish.

Heh, the shiny stars really do work -- between the chart at work and the chart that me and my roommate started up, I was shamed into writing wherever I was!

Hi Sushi! The smart asses in question are shipper king Zach (infinity) and intern Tanya (square root of negative one). Hey, where were you for WrimoRadio radio this year? We missed you!

Do you think he'll ever manage to finish a novel during November? ;)

So that's what this mysterious YWP chart looks like! Is there a bigger version of this, out of curiosity? I'm curious as to who put infinity and sqrt(-1) words. :)
