Submitted 5 minutes before the hard deadline. Never finished this late before.

Feel my apology was insufficient. So... Sorry again, Rog. :/

Look forward to the book though!

I was lucky. My whole scene took place inside a room. No knowledge of Chicago needed.

Chicago in February? Any scene in its right mind would be inside in a room!!

Mine takes place in May. Much warmer!

Ugh. I'm going to be late. Not excuses but I have a scene that requires a lot of research (for me) and I'm rusty so my writing is achingly slow. I also very rarely write first-person so that's throwing me for a loop. Anyway, know that I'm going as fast as I can but may be the last straggler tonight....

Yay! Glad to be back in the fold. And... where did you peeps get those great NIAD badges in your signatures? #WANT

Yes, NIAD needs a Wiki entry next year. Or do you think it's not notable enough? Surely once it reaches its fifth annual with multiple editions at the fourth it is?

Thanks to Pigfender for a monumental NIAD this year. Multiple copies, my word! The slightly late start didn't hinder me a bit and we can't hold it against our master moderator of this tiresome project, I find. Onwards and upwards it has been this edition and a feather in your cap is very well-deserv...

C! Of course C is the correct answer, people...!

A line reads; "Lerner produces it from her trouser suit pocket." I was tempted to make it; "Lerner produces it from her nice trouser suit pocket."

Just finished my first draft. Comes in at 1.7k. So now a brief break, then a quick edit and done.

Liked writing this. It flowed like hot custard!

Going for 4/4. Do we get a brass medal for completing five events, like some annual events do? ;P

He met with the untimely death that suited him, no doubt.

That's just masterly.

I didn't get Gallagher on my chapter, so I resorted to a reference "in absence". I see now that I was not alone. But of all the nice suit references, I'd like to say that I enjoyed the Alfred joke the most (by Victoria ). Just both brilliant and funny. Victoria takes a bow. Thanks. :)

The 'novel in a day' posts did take over the RSS feed for a day or 3, I'm afraid. :( And I'm sure nobody objects to the NIAD threads being refiled in another section of the board, as you suggest, or the RSS to be filtered somehow so that it doesn't include NIAD posts. However some of us are also her...

Yes of course, only if Pig wants to hand over the steering wheel. Let's hear from him first. But if the post opens up I'd be happy to step up with you.

Heck yeah, I'd love to help out. Any genre suggestions welcome.

Edited to tone down my enthusiasm; didn't want to sound like I wanted to push Pig out, cause I don't. He's the grand master here. :)
