Okay, so I'm going to do NaNoWriMo once again. I had a great time with it in 2009, skipped it last year because I was smitten with someone, which made me stupid and deamilazy; and now I'm back, all cylinders firing. Let's see how it goes.
What I'm most excited about is the prospect of meeting local writers with whom I can socialize and talk-up the craft. I'm always heading to the City for these meetings, and I'll be happier with a group closer to home. I'm really psyched about it!
In the meantime, I am looking forward to this three day holiday. Okay, well my plans have changed from the grammar school reunion I'd originally scheduled for this weekend; much as I want to see certain folks, especially some all-time favorite teachers, there is the need to make a living. The biography on which I'm currently working needs timely research so it's off to Gettysburg for me, which means I'll need to bag the reunion I was so excited about. Bah! I'll just have to experience it all from the safe distance of the computer screen as I meander through the photo albums.
Since I need to be in that area to work, and since the work I'm doing will only take an hour each day, give or take, I've invited one of my favorite girlfriennns along. We'll go sight-seeing, out-letting and and antiquing. We'll drive for a few hours, take in some Civil War History, lunch somewhere wonderful and make home base at an elegant, hopefully haunted, B&B (My room has a fireplace, her's doesn't - hee hee.) I am SO looking forward to this! It'll be nice to be waited upon for a few days by innkeepers and, uh, waiters.
And then there is the shopping... Ooooo, I'm all a quiver.
All for now.
C.
