NaNoWriMo!

Despite how skeptical I am of my chances this year, it is now currently November, and National Novel Writing Month. My goal once again is to write 50,000 words by 11:59:59pm Nov. 30th. This year, I have a full time job that is really full time, as in life-time, and didn't even find time to do a blog post about the event until tonight.

On the other hand, I am also insane, and so I invite anyone and everyone to join me in this endeavor to create. (I already have one little brother joining me again; yay!) Go to the website, read about the event, sign up, add Myth as a writing buddy, and most of all, start writing! Or at least do me the favor of cheering me on - since unless I decide I will be embarrassing myself way too horribly by posting, I will have my word count right here on this blog at least once a week. The embarrassing myself thing could happen. Again, that job thing. But if it goes well, I hope to have another (and a better) book in editing by December.

And there are two things in my favor. I finally saw Orion for the first time this fall a week ago Friday night (I've been looking for a while, but always had bad conditions one way or another), and he is the ending and therefore an important part of the rest of the story; and I'm in generally the same mindset I was when I did all my best writing back in my later 'teens, though in a bit more matured form. All of which leads me to pretend confidence that it will come out well. Wish me luck!
