First off, thank you.

Just in case you skip this whole post, I wanted to say “Thank you.” There are some of you who have been with me since the beginning, there are some of you who have just started, but you all have been encouraging, and I am so happy if my comics have encouraged you in your NaNoWriMo journey.

Yes, I am retiring this year. This is the final NaNoToon comic.

There are so many people I am thankful for. Debbie Ridpath Ohi was the main reason these started, and she has always been one of my biggest cheerleaders. To her I’m eternal grateful.

I am thankful to Vix, who was an ML during a few of my years. She helped me with a bit of editing, and was one of the very first people I met when I started doing NaNo!

And Kari Maaren has been with me for the longest time, putting up with my horrible grammar, spelling, and too many commas. Check out her webcomic It Never Rains. It’s about time travel! And you can also check out her book, “Weave a Circle Round“, which is also about time travel!

Again, thanks to NaNoWriMo. I got a chance to meet Chris Baty, and he didn’t look at me too strangely. 😀 It’s because of him we’re all doing this!

And also thanks to Grant Faulkner and the whole NaNo team at headquarters. They were very hospitable and fun when I met them during a Night of Writing Dangerously. 😀

Honestly, there are too many to thank, and the whole community of NaNo has been amazing. I will continue being one of NaNo’s biggest fanboys. If you ever get a chance to donate to NaNoWriMo, please do. I shall do so now. ^_^

Will there be a compilation of NaNoToons? I get that question a lot. I will try to get one done before next NaNo. It won’t be something I will make money off of, I hope to donate it to NaNoWriMo to sell if they are so willing! So I’ll keep you posted.

Again, thank you! I hope your NaNo went exceedingly well. Remember, you’re a writer. 🙂

Last day! Good grief. I’m currently in Montreal to do some escape rooms. I also still haven’t done the final comic. I will though!

Good grief, two more days. You know what I didn’t get done? The final comic. I guess I should work on that…

Happy Thanksgiving to those of you in the States! 😀

You may have wondered why I haven’t done the Thanksgiving comics, but it was because I was always in the middle of some silly plot I would create for the NaNoToons, and I couldn’t fit in. Or it could be because it usually required more effort. Ah well.

And yes, Tala is Canadian. That’s why she hasn’t been to American Thanksgiving before.

You know, I post the comic with the date every time, so I can’t really say that the time has snuck up on me, but it’s already the 27th. Wow. This month has gone by fast.

Who knows what Dave and Rob do? I don’t know what they do in between the comics.

Actually, come to think of it, we all probably know.

The chat, back in the day, was based on a platform called Mibbit. Now, it’s Discord, but to keep the nostalgia going, I kept it as Mibbit.

I finally finished my novel! Now I can edit! Huzzah! Currently, we should be at 41,675 for our NaNo novels.

I’ve been doing my nano novel in Google Docs. It’s pretty sluggish now. But it’s great for editing when I don’t have wifi. I’ll probably move it out into it’s own doc.

Allo! We should be at 40,008 words today. I’m done my story already, but I have about 2k left until 50k. This week, I hope to get some other projects done, and possibly do some editing!

And if this comic looks familiar, it should. 😀

I used to do these long ones before. And then I got lazy. Hah! I’m going to write today! It’s Saturday!

Or, because my daughter got me into watching the K-Drama Extraordinary You, I may do that instead. But it’s really fun. (We watched 8 half hour episodes last night. Sheesh).

People missed Jen’s freak-outs! Poor Jen.

We should be at 36,674 today for our wordcount. I’m almost done my story and got a lot written last night! I’m at a 110%!

Hopefully I can get to editing soon. I’ve been dying to edit things in my story.
