Nanowriomo Day 2 – Morning Update
nanowrimo.org is really clunky so far, I tried to update my word counts yesterday, and it just seems to be overrun. I guess there must be a huge turnout this year, this is good. For the time being, this blog is my actualy text for my Nanowrimo entry, at least it will keep me honest. … Continue reading

It was only a couple days ago that I realized Nanowrimo was coming up, meaning it is almost November, and that I need to begin deciding what I want to attempt to write a novel about this time. Right now, I am thinking about writing one around the theme and characters of The Mark of … Continue reading
NANO 2006 – Didn’t happen
27.5 K, that’s where I gave up. I didn’t push ’til the last minute, and I didn’t reallylock up. I just took along look at some of the last words I wrote and realized I would not make it in the time I had and even want to read what I had written. In the … Continue reading

Nano 2006 – Day 29

Nano – 2006 – Day 21
Three weeks in and I’m just over 6K, but I feel surprisingly good about it. I fully intend to hit 50K and have a complete, if rough story by the end of this month. It’s just taking time to get revved up. What’s happening is a couple of things, one is that I find it hard sometimes … Continue reading
Nano 2006 – Plot and chapter summaries
This is a chapter and plot summary of the Guardian so far, to be updated as I go along. I have usually had something like this going, as another word document, but this might be easier to do.
Nano 2006 – Motivational Tricks
Well, two weeks into this nano-wrimo thing and I’m only 12 days behind. However, I’d be two weeks behind if not for what’s been happening the last couple of days.I’m writing, and writing well, if the levee walls have not completely let loose, there is a lot of water coming over them. You see, I … Continue reading
Week 1 – Day 7
Gotta admit, things aren’t moving quite the way I hoped they would from the start, but on the other hand, the words are starting to flow a bit and the whole premise of the novel is changing in my head, maybe. I guess that I am hoping that maybe having a month deadline will let … Continue reading
