Let’s just pretend that Nano kicks off on November 8th, rather then the first. 50,000 words in three weeks. Sounds even more exciting that way, don’t you think?
Between the refinancing, a weekend visit from the in-laws, my son’s birthday party this weekend, and roughly two hours of crying telephone calls each and every day, this week might as well not exist when it comes to writing.
But my frustration and anger levels are stirring up quite nicely. By the time I get writing, I should have a character ready to really rip into someone. Me? I’m doing my best to stay calm and collected. Right now I’m sitting cross-legged in the front yard, naked, pretending to be Buddha. Funny, how many people walk by and pretend not to notice me. I’m Buddha, for crying out loud! Engage me! Share in my carefree spirit! Let your dogs sniff me, I don’t care. I won’t bite!
