Thank You

Thanksgiving seems like a great time to thank you, the reader, for stopping by and checking out what's posted here. Bless you.

Day Two!

One thing I've now learned is what a s.l.o.w. writer that I am. We went to a writers workshop today and last night my husband sat down and cranked out about 4,000 words. I have just now managed to wobble over 3,400 on my race to 50,000. Yes, that's right, I've only now crossed the second hurdle. The one I should have been jumping on November 2nd.

Irony? He doesn't really care about being a writer. And before you ask, yes. It was a good 4,000 words.

Yea! Day One!

To get ready for NaNoWriMo I faithfully calculated how many words were necessary to write each day in order to arrive at 50,000 by the end of the month. It's about 1,700. Having finally hit that number it is, by logic, only my first day in NaNoWriMo. Its like starting on a walk and having to say, "No, really, we're going up THAT mountain?"

Oh boy...

NaNoWriMo: Day 1

Off to a blazing start with two paragraphs. About one tenth of the target words for the day. November is going to a long month. Will need to request time off from work...
