I have a secret. I trade time for speed. Of course, I'm not half as busy as most adults. I live by myself, can stumble out in the am and just sit down and start to write. Doesn't mean the stuff I've written is any good, mind you.

Ten years? Then you've got a good start, yes? It's not the time, that matters dear. The basis for this Nano thing came from when I was about 16 years old, over 20 years ago... um.. 30 years ago.
