I tried reading one of JCO's short story collections. I read a few, and they were decent, but then I read a sentence that contained the phrase "like a wire cutter cutting wire". I immediately put the book down at that point, and now I shudder whenever I see her name.

The point of NaNoWriMo is to get over writer's block and shit out a literal piece of shit text that won't be anywhere near an actual completed novel.

But, on that pile of shit, you can maybe build a foundation or get over writing paralysis.
