Let's try this again. WordPress seems to have misplaced my previous attempt at this post. Nano is starting slow down. It's become a bit of a slog to sit down every morning and get the words out. It hasn't helped that I ran out of…
It's been a few days since I updated the blog with my Nano progress. Overall, I'm ahead of the game. If I stay at my current pace, I should reach the 50,000 word mark around November 20th. If I continue to the end of the…
Today was a good day. The word count was pretty good, but what really made it nice is that the words seemed to flow again. I guess I just like writing action scenes better than anything else. I'm averaging about 1100 words per hour, and…

Well, tomorrow is it. NaNoWriMo starts and my life will get very interesting, thirty days of at least 1667 words a day, to complete at least 50,000 words by the end of the month. I'm already feeling stressed out. I was going to take most…
This weekend, on top of all the other things, I tried to get a Video Chat system going with my brother in Calgary. I thought it would be neat to have him at the family party for the kids. Well. Let's just say we need…
Both our boys have birthdays in October. Two days apart, in fact, and it can make for a very hectic time in the house. We had a kids party on Friday with 2 guests for our now five year old, a kids party on Saturday…
