NaNoWriMo - Oh no!

Ah crap! Is it november already? I had such big plans, glorious plans! I was going to have it all planned out and ready to go. I was going to start this month off with a bang. A 1667 word bang!  Oh well.  I still signed up to the challenge of NaNoWriMo this year (that would be the National Novel Writing Month for those of you who dunno).  I seriously doubt i will finish the hectic break pencil neck speed of 1667 words per day to reach the goal of 50,000 words by November 30th.  But i have excuses!  Excuses, i tell you! A three week old baby, a visitimng mother (she arrives tomorrow!) and a full time job and blah blah blah.

So, realistically, my personal challenge this year is just to get started and to TRY.  (Shut up, Yoda!)

I have my basic idea and the world is forming in my head (and in notes on paper). The actual writing of the draft... not so much... yet.    Will post occasional updates about my success/failure rate during the month.
