Stay away from glass. A definite addition to the list!!
Chris – love your commitment to your family. I try to write during nap time or after bedtime or when my children are out of the house (which is rare). This limits my time, but helps me remember my highest calling is to be the best wife and mother I can be. I'm sure your children will benefit, not only from your devotion to them, but also when you finish the book and tell them the rest of the story!

I try to avoid the phone, too. As it's also dangerous – usually requires me to go away from my story for awhile, do something in the real world that doesn't involve Dimension Doors, angry trees, and magic crystals.

Though on a more serious note, I committed this morning to fail NaNo if trying to finish was going to make the family suffer without their Dad.

But the kids want their book, to find out what.happens.next. so on I go with the adventures of Anne in 'The Green Door'…

Charity – Don't use the tack, either! Try having your roommate open the packaging and use that yellow, white, or blue tacky stuff for hanging that! 😉

One more to add: use plastic or Styrofoam cups and plates. Don't wash glasses, in case you accidentally crack one and it shatters on your fingers…I had a lot of stitches in a pinkie because I forgot my mother's wisdom once.

I didn't even think of tape dispensers. Stay far, far away!! Glad to see you rockin' the word count. I'm hoping to crack 20K tomorrow. I'd cross my fingers, but I don't want to strain myself :-).

I literally laughed out loud the whole time I read and read it out loud to my roommate who isn't doing NaNo and is probably tired of hearing about it, but seriously, I should tape this up next to my computer. Don't you think?

But then that tape dispenser has a jaggged edge too and I'd have to use paper. Oh well, I'll tack it up on my mental corkboard. 🙂

But I may wear gloves :-)!
