This is apparently the Korean drama recommendation episode! This week JJ and Kelly tackle the end of NaNoWriMo. Sort of. We hope. Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving! We will be on hiatus next week, but will pick up again in December! Gobble, gobble.
Show Notes
Have some tropes!
Bicker Bicker, Kiss Kiss (What TVTropes calls Slap-Slap-Kiss)
Kong-ji, Pat-ji (Korean Cinderella)
Remember, whether or not you "win" NaNoWriMo this year, be proud of everything you have accomplished! Success isn't defined solely by word count, and hopefully you've taken away some tools and lessons from the experience.
