    1. My pleasure -- I didn't think I had that much in the archives, actually, but I'd forgotten a bunch of posts I'd done in years past.

  2. I'm actually doing it this year after taking years off and doing Camp Nano successfully this year. Part of me is feeling like I'm jumping off the end of a tall bridge, the other part is excited. I think the excited part needs to get a life. LOL But this roundup helps a lot! Thanks so much!
