Experiment, Experiment - Or, Do as the NaNo-ers Did

Yup, Bimo, the notoriously slow ficlet writer is trying her hands at a longer story again. 'Pirates of the Caribbean'. Very mild Norrington/Elizabeth romance, set about 2-3 months prior to the events of 'Curse of the Black Pearl' with lots of Swann and period details. Planned deadline: New Year's Day. If this counter thingie turns out any helpful for focussing on the actual outpout instead of on the permament brooding, self-questioning and deletion of perfectly good text, I'll sure as hell use it for real life projects as well.

I so need to break out of that nice, cozy, slowly suffocating cocoon of self-imposed unproductivity.
