    The finale begins!  Piers, oh poor Piers, decides to contact a gypsy fortune-teller to help with his NaNoWriMo project.  Argh!  Inspite of warnings from his muse and common sence, he proceeds.  Many earlier characters come together to menace Piers, who ends this chapter in a real fix.

    Piers's desperation mounts as the NaNoWriMo dead line rapidly approaches.  What is he to do?  A lot of time and energy are wasted cleaning up his Pulp Fiction attempt.  He flirts with a sequel to last years entry, but this goes... poorly.  Ultimately Piers figures out the ticket: find out what he will write in the future and then write it before December 1st.  How would he find out what he was to accomplish?  Better listen and find out - it's hard to explain and harder to believe!
