Busy, busy...

Last day for NaNo and I'm trying to hit 60K before 9:00 p.m. tonight. Found this while on break.

26.5 miles per gallon

Happy Thanksgiving!

Mom was up, maybe not quite as early as she wanted, but early enough and got the turkey going. In the end I helped a bit, mainly because that bird was too heavy for her to lift into the oven! A bit later she made some of the side dishes and we ate around 3:30 next door at my sister's, who also made too much food. All in all, a great day.

Hope you and your family had a great day!

Sorry I Haven't Written...

but I've been saving the bulk of my writing for NaNo.

How am I doing, you ask? Well, cast your eyes to the right and look at that pretty number! As of right now, 33,916! That's a good two days ahead of the average, which is 30,006.

It helps that work has been a bit slow these past couple days, so to look busy, I've been writing. No one's called me on it yet, so I'm just going to keep going. I may--not only achieve 50,000 words--but I may also finish my story! Oh, this would be so awesome. Last year I hit 50,000 words, but didn't finish the story. It was pretty lousy anyway so I was glad to abandon it once I hit the goal. This year, I'm just gonna keep going until I finish, even if it take me half-way into December. I am going to finish my story!

Wish me luck, my many legions of fans!

NaNoWriMo - Day 5

My muse was kicking today! My inner editor is firmly muzzled, straight-jacketed and chained up in the basement. Ignore the counter on the right...hopefully it'll update soon. I've written 10,133 words total as of today! Man, this feels great. I was beginning to despair of my muse getting her cute tush in gear and giving me some good stuff to write. I guess she was still enjoying the beach at Myrtle but now she's home and we are cooking!
