It’s that time of year again, folks! My life is officially being swallowed by the worldwide phenomena known as National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo to those of us who talk about it so much we have to shorten it. The challenge is to write a novel of not less than fifty thousand words in thirty days. I did it last year, got 76K of a 92K novel written in thirty days. I hope to be a lot closer to finishing my novel this year at the end of the month rather than dragging it out for an additional seven months afterward as I did last year.

It is very likely that my life will devolve into me spending most of my time at my laptop writing for the next thirty days. It is highly likely that posts here will become erratic and that you may not see the picture posts put up in a very timely manner. Rest assured, I’m not dead or sequestered on jury duty. I’m just writing a novel. A whole novel. In a month.
