I seem to have accidentally signed up for NaNoWriMo. I will not, however, be participating in it unless I get enough of MD done to feel like I can. So I better write a lot of MD over the next few weeks. :)
launch delayed
Site redesign launch delayed until next week. This is good in that something was promised that we don’t have the setup to do, and bad in that I’ve already put in about 40 hours this week, doing bug fixes.
