So after semi-careful-ish consideration and thinking about my pros, cons, dos, don’ts, and whatever else there is to think about…

I signed up for Nano 2.0.

It has the advantage of being the OG creator of the event, and my one con has either been rectified or they had it all along but I didn’t happen to spot it: There’s a tracker.

Quotes by Darren Blake (?)

“All writers, including me, are full of it. Sure, we all have our things and we'd like to believe that our way is the "one true way," but when it comes right down to it, my way works for one person: Me. What ends up working for you is your way.”
― Darren Blake
