Where am I?
http://www.erikbenson.com/nanowrimo-report-card.xls
A phenomenally complete Excel spreadsheet that helps you keep track of
your progress. It could save you time, unless you use it obsessively
just to watch the charts and graphs change. Includes a morale tracker.

What AM I doing?
http://www.thescriptorium.net
It may be a bit late muck around with plotting, but you never know what
you're gonna need. This is where our character worksheet came from.
The site also includes character biography worksheet, fantasy and sci-fi
world-building forms, and story starters.

Is this for real?
Check out the Character and Plot Realism thread on the 
[[http://www.nanowrimo.org/modules/newbb][NaNo forum]]. This
is the place to go for the skinny on weight-lifting, Italian folk magic,
creative assassinations, or summoning angelic beings. It's also a
great place to mess around when all you really want to do is, well,
procrastinate.
