NaNoWriMo, anyone?
I don’t know what I am thinking, but I just signed up to write a novel in one month! For those of you who don’t recognize that hip, cryptic acronym in the post title, it stands for National Novel Writing Month. It is a contest held every November in which crazies from all over the world try to churn out 50,000 words vaguely resembling a novel in 30 days. It sounds ridiculous, and it really is considering I have never even attempted to write any kind of novel, novella, short story, literary prose, bathroom-wall poem, etc. I guess I did write the Ode to SuperGeek, but Rick James was really the wind beneath my wings on that one. I will hopefully be able to blog occasionally about the progress (or lack thereof) of the book, and probably the sad condition of the house and children. SuperGeek will be doing this crazy thing with me, once again proving we are weird beyond words, and a match made in heaven (the oddball, e-harmony section of heaven!) We will also likely be in some sick competitive game with each other over this. It will all be great blogging material! I may even post pictures of the gi-normous, man-eating, soul-sucking, Mt. Gibraltar of dirty laundry that I foresee growing in my house this next month. Stay tuned for what is sure to be a dramatic adventure in self-inflicted havoc! Also, misery loves company. Let me know if you want to join in! It starts on Saturday!
