There's also a NaNo homepage which you might like to visit if you haven't already. I'm signing up.
As for making that phone call -- yeah I hate talking to strangers on the phone even if all I'm doing is subscribing to the newspaper. I had less trouble doing it when I did it as part of my job on the reference desk at a public library. Perhaps you could look at it as a business call and see if that helps. I don't know why some of us find talking to strangers on the phone intimidating, but we do.
Oh, and make an actual written list of things you want to ask him.
