I know I usually do my horn tooting on Tuesdays, but I'm just so proud of myself for earning these swell badges that I had to share!
First, of course, I earned the Procrastination Badge. According to the little pamphlet thingie that comes with the badges, one can earn this cute vacuum cleaner badge in a variety of ways:
a. skip writing for more than three days in a row
b. spend over 30 cumulative hours on the forums
c. clean your home instead of working on your novel
Guess how I earned it? Keeping in mind that dog hair is swirling around the keyboard as I type. And that I don't even know how to get in the forums.
But one badge is never enough, is it? So I went for two. And honestly, I'm really thrilled over earning the Word-Count Padding Badge. I mean, this badge requires mad writing skills.
I had my main character study for a World Geography quiz and added about 30 countries and their capitals. Isn't that brilliant? I think I may have earned bonus points for choosing countries like Central African Republic and Democratic Republic of the Congo. And the best part is that I can always go back and add more!
And last, but certainly not least, I earned the Nano Socializing Badge by dragging a few friends into Nano with me. Friends who have tons more words than I do.
But do they have any badges? Hah.
