My Tongue Is Still Intact
No, the cat has not gotten my tongue (or my fingers…for one thing, I don’t let her). Let’s just say I was computer-deficient for a week. All regular programming will now continue as regularly programmed.
If that made no sense…well, I barely understand it, too.
Ever heard of “NaNoWriMo“? No? Well it’s a funny-sounding acronym for “National Novel Writing Month”. Every November, people sign up and try to beg, borrow, or steal 50,000 words to complete a novel in one month. Thirty days. You heard me. 50,000 words in 30 days.
So.
I signed up, but I highly doubt I’ll get that many words of a novel out. The most I’ve managed to squeeze out is a little over 15,000, and that was over four years (of sporadic writing).
Yikes.
I think I’m gonna quit before I start.
Just kidding!

What have you chosen as the subject of your novel?

It’s actually a sequel to another story. The family was told their daughter’s twin brother had died, but he hadn’t really; instead a very rich lady paid off all the doctors and nurses, so she could keep the baby. So basically, a quest of sorts.
