This month is almost one for the books




November almost over. Another Thanksgiving is one for the books. The turkey and fixings are the story of leftovers, if there were leftovers. NaNoWriMo is almost finished as well. I had all of the intentions of participating this year because I need to finish my novel, Magic’s Memory (tentative title), the sequel to Water’s Memory. You know what they say about the road to hell. Completing NaNoWriMo this year is just one more brick in that road.
I, however, have a backup plan. In the back of my mind, I’m going to try to keep a deadline like I had when I participated in the 100 Day Book Program. Hopefully, I will make this deadline which will be around January or Spring Break, which is in March. I’m almost 10,000 words in, and my goal is around 50,000 or 60,000 words. Sometimes I feel like I have a few too many irons in the fire with classwork and writing looming, but the ideas, especially the novel ideas seem to be steady.
I’d like to begin writing short stories again. Maybe an idea or two will come my way. I have an idea about a siren still marinating in my brain. It has been there for months. The story with this siren happens in the world that is evolving in my two novels. The nexus of the mundane and magical world will be the subject of a future post. TTFN! Happy reading! Happy writing! 😊
