It's 4:00am local time, here in dank, rainy Knoxville, and you may have noticed that I'm writing this post, instead of sleeping. I'd say there's a reason for this, but there is absolutely no way that I could defend such a remark. Anyway, to the point, and then to bed....
As I am wont to do in the wee hours of the morning, I've committed myself to an ambitious project. I've signed myself up for Nanowrimo 2009. I plan to use this site to chronicle the venture and post occasional excerpts, as I reach for that mythic goal of novelist-in-a-month. Being that it's still October, it would be cheating to put pen-to-page, so there isn't much to be done yet, besides set goals and brainstorm.
On that note, my tenative schedule is to reach for 1,750 words-per-day, Monday through Friday, with 2,625 on Saturday and Sunday. That should make for 60,000 words in thirty days. I can already see the Thanksgiving holiday throwing a wrench in the gears, but that's what I've laid out, with crossed-fingers.
That's where I am now. Hopefully, I'll have some manner of outline ready by the end of the month, but don't expect much activity, prior to November.
