Marathon Wrap-up and Award!

Writing marathons, where would I be without them? Jen's marathon on the forum wrapped up today; without it I wouldn't have had a word written all week, between our trip to New York City to see Blue Rodeo (as the border guard asked, "what's a blue rodeo?") - where we met Jim Cuddy! - friends visiting from out of town, and family and friends hosting parties for my birthday.

But when Jen cracks that whip, you'd better get writing, and I did!

Is there a provision in NaNo for a notebook full of handwritten scenes? Perhaps I can scan them and add them to my total word count... Only one week left and I've got lots of overtime coming up at work in the next few days. Not to mention more bread to bake.
Hey look - I just found out, there's a Luddite clause!

"Invoke the Luddite Clause!
What you do is write your 50,000 words, then have someone you trust verify that it is, indeed, 50,000 words. Then using something like the Lorem Ipsum generator, submit a file of the exact number of words of your handwritten manuscript to our word count validator."

Who will vouch for me?

As for the award - Marsha's given me a Superior Scribbler Award! Thank you Marsha!
I in turn will pass it on to...

Joanna Bourne, for the wit, wisdom, advice and humour
Kait Nolan, for posting every day!
Pamela Patchet, for the gorgeous photos and laugh out loud stories
Jenny, as she enters the final push for the Golden Heart Awards
and
Jennifer Hendren, Rachel Walsh, Kristen Callihan and Claire Gregory, the four awesome ladies at All the World's Our Page, who're starting a serial story this week - don't miss it!

Here are the rules:

"Each Superior Scribbler must in turn pass The Award on to 5 most-deserving Bloggy Friends.
Each Superior Scribbler must link to the author & the name of the blog from whom he/she has received The Award.

Yay!
