There&#8217;s an easy-to-use word counter, stripped-down tools and resources list, and my favorite part &#8211; cute new badges.  I&#8217;m deep into the work on the Costuming From the Hip rewrite and expansion.  <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new website is now run by a volunteer community of devoted fans.  As a fan myself, I&#8217;ve decided to join in the fun! <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m putting together my own challenge.  In order to make this work for me, I needed to reduce the word count goal to about 35,000 words, and that might be too high.  I also need to figure out how to create an exchange system of &#8220;time&#8221; spent doing other projects for this book.  I&#8217;m sure over the next three weeks, I&#8217;ll find a way to turn time spent sewing and drawing into word count.  I&#8217;ve gotta take some time to figure that part out. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the meantime, I&#8217;ve got some words to log, badges to earn, and hours to log working on this project.  I&#8217;ll be back with an update at the end of the month.  If you&#8217;re interested in more real-time updates, you can find me over on Facebook. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Now off to draw some pretty pictures!<br \/>\nDawn Devine ~ Davina<br \/>\nNovember 2026<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" data-attachment-id=\"11527\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.davina.us\/blog\/2026\/11\/im-a-nano-rebel\/screenshot-2026-11-05-at-11-49-03-am\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-05-at-11.49.03-AM.png?fit=720%2C405&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"720,405\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-title=\"Screenshot 2026-11-05 at 11.49.03\u202fAM\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-05-at-11.49.03-AM.png?fit=720%2C405&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-05-at-11.49.03-AM.png?resize=720%2C405&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11527\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-05-at-11.49.03-AM.png?w=720&amp;ssl=1 720w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-05-at-11.49.03-AM.png?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-05-at-11.49.03-AM.png?resize=150%2C84&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-05-at-11.49.03-AM.png?resize=599%2C337&amp;ssl=1 599w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.davina.us\/blog\/2026\/11\/im-a-nano-rebel\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" src=\"\" class=\"alignleft wp-post-image tfe\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><p>NaNoWriMo, the National Novel Writing Month challenge, returns in 2026 with a new website!
