Hello everyone!
It seems that I can only update this site every month as I am so busy writing! But that is good, right? I have been struggling to dribble-drabble out a new novel - up to chapter three. But the fire is under my behind now! Or should I say? The seat is under my behind? NaNoWriMo is back around again. Dang, November comes fast doesn't it? Anyway, since November 1st, I have written two new chapters and close to 8,000 new words towards my goal of 50,000 words in a month. Since I have a relatively good handle on the characters, the plot is beginning to flow now. Check back with me later in the month and see if that remains true!
The truth of NaNoWriMo is that you don't really edit the story as you go along, therefore sometimes I think it is the best stuff I have ever written and at other times I wonder if this is something I will just put out of my mind and junk it as it is so bad! My very first effort at NaNo was like that, some great characters and a half way good story, but it wasn't leading anywhere. Recently I looked at it again and realized there just might be something to salvage in that story ...
Always, always chasing that elusive tale!
Type to you all later.
Happy writing to you all!
Marie
