It's November, and since I have nowhere near enough time to even contemplate attempting NaNoWriMo, that means it's time to watch Month of the Novel again.Or it would be if I hadn't already done so this weekend.

Month of the Novel is a (hilarious) web video series depicting one novice writer's attempt to write a "November Novel," from the perspective of both The Author and her characters. It was made by HWer Jordan Smith, and one episode in the second (and so far last, alas) season was "filmed" partly in the Holy Worlds SF forum chat room (with some interjections by yours truly, if you watch at high enough resolution :)). (Oh, and she who now goes by "Lt. General Hansen" here was "story supervisor" and wrote a couple of episodes.)

To my great regret, Month of the Novel has gone essentially silent since Season 2 aired in November 2013. (I gather that "life happened" for many of the people involved.) But I'd love to see it come back for a third season, and in the meantime the two seasons we do have are well worth watching (in my case, again and again).

I loved this web series. I watched it a long time ago now but it's definitely very entertaining!
