I seem to have committed myself to doing NaNo this year. Not the full 50,000, however. I need to finish Lightning Strikes Twice, which got its 50K in 2018 and I haven't touched it -- or, let's be honest, much else writing-wise -- since. But LST doesn't need another 50K to be finished (I hope), even if that were a reasonable target for somebody as out of practice as I am.

I was thinking 20,000 words would be a reasonable goal for the month. Not enough to finish the book, but a substantial chunk along the way.

Before I can start writing, however, I still need to finish re-reading ...And The Kitchen Sink to refresh it all in my head, and then re-read the 50,000 words extant of Lightning. That's something like 80,000 words remaining to be read in the next few hours, and, well, I'm a fast reader, but not that fast. I could try to crash through it as fast as possible, foregoing sleep, but that's not going to leave me in any state to do good work. So I'm going to chill. I'll get the re-reading done, and when it's done I'll start writing, and we'll just see where we go from there.

Would you be interested in being NaNo buddies? I'm going to be editing 45 minutes each day.
