*cough*…*cough* Ahem…..hey. So, it’s been awhile, huh?
Not sure where I’m at with the whole blogging biz these days. I’ve got a lot of thinking going on in the ol’ noggin, but I haven’t been able to figure out how to write about it here. So I haven’t. Sometimes things are so big and personal the thought of sharing it in a blog feels waaaayyy to vulnerable and wide-open-making. Other times things are so small and personal that the thought of writing about it in a blog seems a bit too twee. You know what I’m saying?
So why come back now, you ask? (and by “you” I mean “me”) well, because tomorrow is November 1st and that date marks the return of NANOWRIMO and this year I’m doing it again. And imma finish this time, dragnangit
(not-blogging has left me with lots of time to create new curse words. I LOVE CURSING).
How this time will be different than last time:
- I wrote an outline so I have a much better idea where this story is going
- I had a good year of writing. I’ve been writing around this story for awhile, but now I feel much more confident to just TELL it
- I’m just going to do it. 50,000 words will get written
How I’ll use this blog to help me through it:
- I'll be using the little word counter widget to the right over there to track where I’m at with the project publicly
- I’ll post one good nugget from the day’s writing each day
- I might get stuck and need some good ideas – maybe you’ll help me out with that?
Okay, over and out. see you tomorrow, pencils sharpened.
