Finally Lost My Marbles

category: WWWorld 

I'm afraid I've lost my marbles

For 6 years, I have watched an event (some years closer than others), and I've always thought that it wouldn't be "me". Well, this year I've finally taken the plunge ...

I'm going to write in the NaNoWriMo (nanowrimo.org) - 50,000 words in 1 month (30 days).

I'll be posting the special link where my story will unfold (after a while), and where you can keep track of the progress. As mvblog is not yet equipped to handle such long texts, I'll be looking for an alternate space (don't worry - have plenty of ideas).

Wish me luck, and if you feel like it ... enter!

Since theres no ticket on dev.mvblog.org I had no idea that we were missing something.
I think the htmleditor is capable of handling a text of 50.000 words.

Good luck on the task.

I know I didnt make a ticket - htmleditor can handle long texts but the interface becomes slow and sluggish after a while (I tried it with fanfics)

and thanks Sofie - well have to see how I do
