Somebody somewhere said they had seen instructions for using a blog to post chapters of a novel. The important part was about how to index it so that people could read it forwards instead of backwards. Where was that? I had thought it was supposed to be at the Nanowrimo site, but it isn't there as far as I can tell.

Oh, Emma's gone for the summer. But Frank isn't.

And since yesterday, among all the other things I had to do, I wrote 908 words, for a total of 58750 words. Which means I'm about three-quarters done, by word count, though I have another whole segment and some work on the vignettes to do. Maybe I will be done by the end of July, or August anyway.

Ah, just answered this on rasfc, but it seems to me you can start the thing with a future date, say 10 years from now, and work your way backward date-wise to now. LJ allows for backdating. That's how I did the sticky post with the counter and other fun stuff til I figured out how to get all that into the sidebar. Then I deleted the entry, which I'd dated 12/31/2010.
