Committing to NaNo Delicious Caprice

Dear Cathie,
This is your commitment letter for your November Novel-writing project.
This is the twenty-third task in the October Preparation Challenge which has helped you hone and clarify your ideas for the novel you plan to write.  You have put in the work to make some of the characters feel almost real and, with the remaining tasks, you will make the plot believable within its genre and you’ll make all the action hang together.  You’ll also work on the locations and the remaining characters.
After all that effort, and with all those ideas flowing through your thoughts, you don’t want to stop before the end, or to do it in a half-hearted way.  Therefore, in a manner befitting Gollum, I promise you, Cathie, that I will not make light of the preparations you’ve made and nor will I let them go to waste.  I will do my best to average 2K a day during the whole of November and to make up the wordage after days on which other duties or responsibilities prevent me meeting this daily target.  I will not procrastinate or allow myself to be distracted from this path except by the aforementioned responsibilities or family crises.  I will plan ahead for foreseeable obstacles and share out those word-counts among other days beforehand, thus allowing only unexpected delays to result in words to catch up after their day has passed.
You are awesome, Cathie, because you keep so many balls in the air and do so many good things for so many people.  Writing this novel is your reward for doing all those things and it is your voice in the world.  You deserve it because you have earned it.  You’ve earned it by prioritising other people’s needs above your own, when it has been necessary.  You’ve earned it by handling some very tricky situations with calmness of demeanour.  Most of all, you are earning the right to write this novel by the care with which you are preparing it.
You will complete your novel by writing two thousand words every day, on average and, after the end of November, you will keep going until the whole novel is complete.
Afterwards, you’ll celebrate by printing out the novel so you can see it in hard copy, you’ll buy a chocolate cake and sharing it with your immediate family members and, like Joan Wilder in “Romancing the Stone”, you’ll celebrate with a miniature bottle of nice liquor.
