No, sadly :(
I wanted to, but November is such an incredibly busy month for me that I decided not to participate. Maybe one year when I've got a lot of time on my hands I'll do it. It's one of the things I really want to get done in my life.

How's nano coming along with you?

Congrats, its a little short now(most novels are usally around 100,000 words are more) but it will get longer once you start editing more.

Thanks! It probably won't get much longer, there's nothing left to tell and a few scenes really need to be cut, but I'm rather happy about the length (it's about the same lenght as the first HP book, which admittedly isn't very long, but hey ^^)
