I did win at NaNo. I finished later this year than usual, but if you follow NaNo at all, you know that doesn’t matter. You have until midnight in your timezone on November 30 to finish and win. What are some other notes to commemorate the end of NaNo? I … Continue reading →
Just staying on track again. Hubby had an end of year rehearsal today with a meal to celebrate another year of playing music with the band for band members and spouses. I always enjoy catching up with the spouses, but while the band is playing, it’s too loud to chat, … Continue reading →
The book is on track (for NaNo purposes) at 30,927 words. About half of those words are trash — I restarted about half way through, because the book was way off base. But in NaNo, you don’t delete words. I had a late night chat with Tammy Jones, and she … Continue reading →
Was like pulling teeth most of the day until the last hour and a half. We got a little insight into why the game works like it does today. Ajax is more tolerant of the kittens. Number One seems to have taken to Ajax. The kitten sat next to Ajax … Continue reading →

Five hundred and four words today. This puts me behind about eight hundred words. We got errands run and groceries bought today. Spent time with hubby. Didn’t get much writing time. UPDATE: Wouldn’t you know it. I type that I’m done, and then I get a burst of a few … Continue reading →
I scraped out an additional 2085 words today bringing us to a grand total to date of 7092. As in previous years, I’m trying to get a little ahead early on. Writing by the seat of the pants makes that challenging at best, because the story isn’t in my head … Continue reading →
Count for today was 2014 — I was a little behind after yesterday, so I knew I had to catch up a little. Cut more on another tree that will not die today. I removed nails from old fence sections that are being broken up. Did some laundry. Played with … Continue reading →
