• Na No Wri Mo

  Yeah, I've been hearing about Nanowrimo for a few years compliments of the internet.  Several years ago I even signed up, but didn't get far as Rainee took over, and I don't think I even wrote a single word, although I did get an outline.

  I've signed up.  I have an outline.  It should be worth more then 50,000 words.  I want to do this.  I want it bad.   Its a childs novel.  Fantasy.  I'm basing it loosely off a story we're writing on the boards, but with all of my own characters.  Including a couple new ones.

  My great-grandmother, my grandmother, my mother have all talked about writing the great-american novel.  Or the great Canadian novel as the case may be.  But so far none of us have managed it.

  I don't know how great its gonna be, but it will be an intresting challenge.  And I think I'm gonna try.

  Other then that just being that goofy car-pooling mom that goes

  wooooooooooooooosh here

  and

  wooooooooooooooosh there.

  No baton tomorrow, but Rob is gonna go with me and take the kiddos Trick or Treating in town.  The merchants in downtown PA all open their stores for trick & treating in the afternoon for about 3 hours.  Its crowded, but its also incredibly safe, and somehow a lot of fun.   After that we will have Awana, so all in all a busy day.
