Cats: Pretty Boy Floyd
Pretty Boy Floyd is the latest kitty in the feral kitty saga. I captured him the evening of Tuesday, Nov. 20th. I got him transferred to a carrier the next morning, and I took him in to get examined and initial shots. I already know he’s too young to … Continue reading →
NaNo day 24: 49,018/50,000
I spent some time talking to a third character today. I thought her story was going pretty well, but she had some things she wanted me to understand. I appreciate her taking the time to discuss them with me. Maybe I should talk to the other three characters, even though … Continue reading →

I didn’t get started until late tonight, but fortunately, with backward NaNo, that works just fine. I only needed 1264 words today, and I managed to get 1785, bringing my cumulative total to 43,825. Less than 7,000 words to go until I cross the finish line.

Welcome to the November installment of the Merry-Go-Round Blog Tour. Have you given any thought to the state of the publishing industry? If you’re a writer, you probably have. If you’re a reader or just stopping in at the blog for other reasons, maybe you haven’t. The publishing industry is … Continue reading →
NaNo Day 18: 42,040/50,000
I’m closing in on the end. I’m projected to finish November 21st. Not the earliest I’ve finished, but it leaves me a comfortable margin.
