For the record: I *will* be using November to finish BANSHEE BEACH.

I just don’t think that NaNoWriMo is a suitable thing to do it under, anymore. It’s not really the AI thing, honestly: I don’t care for AI-prompt generated material, I won’t buy it, but otherwise it’s not my problem. It’s the fact that last year strong allegations were made that NaNoWriMo was being used for some hinky stuff involving minors, and I’m not really comfortable referencing that organization anymore. I’ve never officially signed up for it, I don’t think, but I’ve still referenced the ‘contest’ often.

So now I need a new name for it for November.
