And they're off!

Or maybe it's just me. No, there are definitely other people involved.

So, here I am, back again after nearly a month away. I was waiting for things to resolve a bit in my head. They didn't, but I'm back anyway.

The title refers to NaNoWriMo, which has now begun and I am again participating in my own inimitable - and really, who would want to copy it - way. I have chosen what I hope will be a fun idea to work on. This is all about cranking out the drek and having fun doing it. I'll worry about something that anyone could tolerate reading some other time.

For now it's just stringing words together in some semi-comprehensible way. I can't wait to see whay my brain comes up with and how my fingers interpret it.

More tomorrow.

I was hoping you'd try again this year. Someone suggested to me that this would be a good year for me to try it, but I pointed out that I'd be way too busy bushwalking & abseiling & snorkeling. And facebooking.

Icouldn't resist. It's such a fun idea. I got stuck a little early on but I think I have it figured out now.

I guess you do have plenty to keep busy with.

Hope you're having a great time.

Did you pick up with last year's work? or are you starting over again?

Keeping in the spirit of the thing I started a new one. Now all I have to do is pick one of them and refine it into a finished novel.
