Is this usual? I ask because I'm doing NaNo for the first time this year (mostly to get a story that's been bugging me out of my brain so I can get back to my regularly-scheduled series), and I wondered what the normal etiquette was.

BTW, if you're interested in friending me or whatever it's called over there, I'm Megaera.

Well, I'm doing it on the offside chance that the story really takes off, and I'm able to turn it into something I might shop around to a publisher. Making it available for reading in a closed journal means I can keep my copyrights for commercial publishing. AFAIK there's no set ettiquite otherwise. You don't have to publish what you're writing, if you don't want to.

How does one close a journal? This sounds like something I might want to do (and everything I write I hope I can sell, not that I've sold anything yet...).

I've enjoyed most everything you've written and posted, so I added the locked journal.

Looking foward to it!

Go under Account Settinsg and then to the Privacy tab. The first line is Default Entry Security, which you will want to set to "Friends Only"

I may do this, too, although I wonder how many people will actually bother to sign up and read it [wry g].

heh, I have a locked journal for such things and mine will friend yours (it is kaliaphe so when it shows up you know who it is.)
I want to do nanowrimo but I got a short gig writing a system arch doc/manual that is taking priority.
