Anyone have any NaNoisms this year?

Here's one of mine:

I haven't found a place to use it yet, but I'm looking really hard.

"If you have a problem and can see a problem, try fixing the problem and see if that fixes the problem."

A bit Zen my characters personalities, however.

"And it was this I said to then with him."

Still not entirely sure what I was going for there.

Not quite in the novel, but when tapping a quick note in my phone this morning about an upcoming scene I ended up with: "He suggests she has the results Pierre checked anyway."

Ah, autocorrect, you brighten my days. Yes, proper scientific method says that you should always have your results checked by someone named Pierre. ;)

I have so many. I usually write before I sleep and sometimes while I'm half-sleep and then I end up writing down what I'm thinking/dreaming about mid-sentence.

She had considered every single option and the farm.

"I decided to talk a walk."



Um. Is this anything like talking the talk and walking the walk?

A bit late on this one but my favorite was - "although no one was charged with ant crimes . . ."

When I went back and saw that one I got a helluvan idea for some other story about ant crimes. :D
