NaNoWriMo starts tonight at midnight!

Wow! I grow ever more excited and nervous.

I spent some hours yesterday working out a timeline for the story. I have never really done that before. This is amazing. I can see the story falling into place. I know there will be some surprises -- my characters never do exactly what I want them to do -- but I can see the whole damn story over a month's writing. I didn't know I was capable of doing that. NaNoWriMo is already working its magic upon me and I haven't even started to write.

Incidentally it looks like there will be a little bit of action in the story after all, though not really the standard fare.

I'm not saying any more till later during the month. :)

Expect all my normal posts and email (and probably work too) to drop off to almost zero during November. I intend to write me a novel... and not just any novel. I want this to be something I can be proud of.

(A month!!! Eeeek!!! What am I letting myself in for??)

Absolutely! ...if it gets published on paper. I'll have it online as well for anyone who wants to download it for free.
