I do promise that eventually all these NaNoWriMo posts will go away and I’ll return to whatever I used to post about. October seems so far away at this point I’m not even sure what that means… rants, football/soccer updates, daily post challenges, and other randomness I guess…
Based on the results of my impromptu poll conducted at the end of my “I wrote, I wrote some more, I NaNoWriMoed” post, the consensus is that I should continue to fill this blog space with segments from my other writing projects. I’m mostly okay with that… It does mean that need to get back to work on those writing projects though.
Luckily, I’m still caught up in the inspiration and motivation and other such driving forces and factors left over from my NaNo sprint. I pulled up the comedy western I’m in the middle of yesterday and started familiarizing myself with the characters again. I plan on getting some words added to further along that plot this afternoon. If I get far enough I’ll post a new chapter into the Writing Segments section of my little blog world tomorrow. In the meantime you can, and should check out the three chapters already sitting there waiting to be devoured. You know you want to.
“This is the blog you are looking for…”
However, while I will work on the comedy western, I don’t want to drop the ball on my NaNoWriMo story either (which I’m going to refer to as Sierra Storm from now on, because the titled I’ve decided to label it with forever more, which you would know if you had visisted my page (djmatticus) at http://www.nanowrimo.org/.) Last night I printed out the entire story and began attacking it in earnest with one of those red pen things.
If you do happen to stumble upon my official NaNo page, you might just notice the recently acquired halo hanging over my picture (pats self on back). It is a really good organization and I was more than happy to send them some funds to keep them operational going forward. If you have also donated to them, then we should definitely be friends. If we are of like minds but you haven’t sent in your money yet, I promise it was completely painless. You can trust me.
Well, probably.
….
Okay, okay, you caught me. This entire post was just a bunch of rambling to show off my “Winner” badge and try and gear up the comedy side of my brain so I can get back to writing my western. Tongue firmly in cheek now, off I go… hmm, after I do something about the need for food to quiet the rumblings in my stomach. Priorities, right? Right.
