NaNoWriMo?

It's that time of year again. Halloween is just a week or so away and then it will be November. The month my eldest turns 3 and then Thanksgiving. Oh yeah, and that whole "Write a 50,000 word novel in a month" thing.

Alas, I am not really participating this year. "Why?" you ask. Well, I'm in a really good spot with my Dragons in Space novel and I don't want to stop. Technically, you're supposed to start something new for NaNo. Dragons was my NaNo project last year so I'll continue to work on that this year. I'll still try to get 50k out in one month, so I'll be there in spirit with the rest of y'all.

If you'd like I can still do weekly updates (I should be doing that here anyway *sheepish grin*) and try to find something encouraging to say to those of you who are seriously trying to win that NaNo badge.

In other news, I'm working on a cool ghost story and should have that up by the end of the month. It's partly for the AW Blog Chain and partly in conjunction with Daniel and his ship in bottle blog. It's been fun to write and I'm hoping to have the first draft finished by the end of the week and then I'll edit the crap out of it.

So that's what's been going on. Keep an eye here for the ghost story and for updates during November. :) Happy Thursday and thanks for Reading!
