I (@gertrudedaly.bsky.social) will be back in a week and day.

Sunday, Nov 16th, at the same time, 5-7 AM (PST).

We will be keeping with the Royal theme but moving to Monaco. 🌴🛳️👑

I'm Gertrude Daly, an avid Royal Watcher and founder of the blog, Gert's Royals. You can find more about me GertrudeDaly.com

I like to sneak royalty into my writing. Throughout the next two hours, I will be sneaking in little tidbits about the Denmark Royals, if that is okay?

I'm in Eastern Standard Time......And I'm questioning why I signed up for such an early slot.

I'm happy one of us will be sleeping.

I decided to be a rebel.... by writing a novel in November instead of the Non-fiction book that I should be working on.

Most of the people at NaNo 2.0 were ML of a region, or people like me who just participated each year, with absolutely no role…. Other than bringing desert to write-ins sometimes.

Yes. In the old days, I participated in NaNoWriMo regions and both started their own November challenge after the scandals.

The NaNoWriMo organization is gone. But the community lives on and people just want to continue getting together and writing.

There is no “official NaNoWriMo” organization or website anymore. But dozens of groups & projects have been inspired to continue to NaNo spirit. NaNo 2.0 is one of many.

And while, NaNo 2.0 does include founder Chris Baty, it does not include any staff who were at the Nonprofit in its final years.

My best selling book was “The Spaces In Between,” an anthology of short stories and poems.

The anthology feature my short story, “What does a Queen do?”

Hi Mari, I will let our web team know. And we will get that fixed.
