National Weeping in Front of A Blank Screen Having Forgotten Every Word in the English Language Month

It’s that special time of year again! While some may be excited by their attempt at National Novel Writing Month, why not bask in the real excitement of wondering why all your notes got you absolutely nowhere, reading the same sentence over and over again until it and your world lose all meaning, and dying inside as people post about the 30,000 words they drafted today and that drifter they saved from choking by performing an improvised tracheotomy with a spork and that good luck charm the old witch by the woods the gave them!

Join me, and the hundreds like me, who relish a challenge, but not this one, because Good Lord, are you kidding me? Do actual humans write like that? Are they robots? Are they gods disguised in human form sent to punish us for our hubris? Why do my last eight pages just say “butts” over and over again like I’m Jack Nicholson in The Shining, but also twelve years old?

It’s not for everyone. But we’re stronger, and less likely to lash out at our loved ones together. Take the plunge. Join NaWeFroBlaScreeHaFoEvWoEngLaMo.
