NaNoWriMo Recovery: Fit as a…
Nobody ever says “piano around.”
Hmmm…
PROMPT: Feel free to fiddle around today. But if you are sadly fiddle-free, any
old piano, penny whistle, or didgeridoo will do.

NaNoWriMo Recovery: The Slow Way
A great place to hang
out today
They are slo-mo specialists.
In fact, they move soooooo slowly that algae form on their
fur.
They also know how to put some serious POWER into
power naps…
like, 20 hours a day.
They are sloths…
this week’s Mind’s Elbow mascot.
PROMPT: Embrace your inner sloth today.
How slooooooow can you go?

Letting Go
Congratulations! You've made it through NaNoWriMo, PiBoIdMo, Black Friday, and what I like to
call Black and Blue Saturday (in honor of you, Cindy).
Without
a doubt, YESvember was awesome!
You ROCKED!
You ROLLED!
But now it’s time for a different kind of R & R.
Yeah… the REST and RELAXATION kind.
Without a doubt, you've earned it.
And guess what —
Kicking back is as key to the creative process as all that
kicking butt.
“NOOOOoooooooo!” you might be saying. “I can’t stop now! I
got so much done in November — I think I can do even MORE in
December!”
Trust me, Cupcake, MORE is the first
three ingredients in a recipe called Burnout.
So chill out, hang loose, and let go of all the stuff you
did last month.
It’s officially R & R week here at the good ship Elbow.
Let it go.
Let it roll right off
your shoulders.
Don’t you know,
The hardest part is
over…
