returning...

Finally getting back to writing. After going to the hospital on monday, doctor, blood test, etc on tuesday, volunteer work at the charity shop on wednesday, and total slacko reading addiction to the book I'd been consuming during those previous days, I am back, at last to my writing. Yay! I seriously doubt I'll make it past the finishing line in the month though. No worries. I'll try anyway. :) Maybe I'll do NaNoWriMo the way it's supposed to be done: without checking and re-reading -- just blasting the words and ideas out there, full pelt.

Oh, and the book I'd been compulsively reading?
Stephenie Meyer's "The Host".
I thoroughly enjoyed it.

December is for editing.

Oh dear. I couldn't get past the first page of Twilight. Not that I was trying.

I haven't read "Twilight" yet. From what I've heard it is quite different from "The Host". One is young adult, the other is adult; one is fantasy-romance, the other is solid science fiction woven with a thread of romance. I love science fiction and I enjoy romance. There were a lot of satisfying elements in "The Host".

Go for doing NaNoWriMo the way it's supposed to be done. :) It's surprisingly fun.

I can't wait to get home today to try to make it past 20k. I'm behind, but I tend to bash out many words in few sittings. My goal is 30k by Monday/Tuesday.

I'll try... [gulp]
Seriously scary though. It feels like jumping out of a plane without a parachute.

I'm green with envy. :)

Good luck!

In NaNoLand, jumping from a plane without a parachute just leads to all sorts of new adventures and fun. :) There's no death unless you want it! Go for it! Editing is for December. :D

I've got to get through my work today so I can keep writing. I'm happy to have reached 25k at least! I'm on target again. I seem to only catch up on weekends!
