Dear NaNoWriMo

Dear NaNoWriMo,

Thank you for another fun-filled November.  I really appreciate the pep talks, the web badges, the badgering to keep on going, the egg throwing, the monkey buying, and I find the spaceship crashing most enjoyable.

Did anyone tell you that after one year I am still editing the NaNo Novel I wrote last November? I didn't think so.
I am also working hard on my NaNovel this year.  However, I refuse to surrender and give up everything else life has to offer this month.  So I'm a lil behind on my word count at the half-way point.

Therefore,  I am writing to suggest a novel idea; let's make it National Novel Writing Months!  I propose that we extend this through December as well so we can have even more reasons to hide out in our writing space during the Christmas season.

Oh, I don't mean to cheat and take two months to write a mere 50,000 words.  Let's double it up!  Double or nothing!  100,000 words by December 31st.

Let's run this by the other WriMo's, shall we and get a vote on it?

I'm going back to viewing the all important LOL cats and spewing typed drivel.

New book cover for "There's No Place Like Gnome"

During a NaNoWriMo morning break, and while I was waiting to find out just how my husband was going to go from stranded in Charlotte NC airport to where he needs to be in Charleston, SC, I decided to completely redo the book cover.  "There's No Place Like Gnome" is now on track for a Christmas season release, and book 3 is being drafted during this NaNoWriMo month!
