NaNoWriMo

November is National Novel Writing Month That's 30 daze and nights of wild literary abandon!

You can sign up and register for NaNoWriMo or not. Wildcatting is OK.

Some pointers

1) write at least 2000 words a day; the more the merrier during the first week, makes weeks 3 & 4 easier. You need 175 pages or 50,000 words. Deadline—and I do mean dead line—is Nov 30.

2) find a NaNoWriMo group in a coffeshop near you. Writedriver captains (AKA Municipal Liasons) will flagellate and goad slaphappy and punchdrunk participating procrastinators with proverbial whips and spurious words. Oh my Captain...

3) never revise

4) don't worry about plot or storyline. That comes during revision.

It's a canary egg omlette kind of morning

Hey, the Blue Angels are in town (er, in the sky), & I heard it through the grapevine that the Rolling Stones will play at Treasure Island for Oracle employees, no one else is invited, meanwhile Apple dropped out of US Chamber of Commerce, and childhood friend Adair Lara's canaries had unsafe sex, leaving eggs in their seed bowl. Cheeky little buggers. What a wacky morning—think I'm gonna find me some musical stairs. Gonna break me some tiny eggs. Make me a tiny canary egg omlette & I haven't even Twittered yet.
