Hmmm. Good question.
Last November, I started writing a novel as part of Nanowrimo’s annual competition.
I did pretty good. Nowhere near the goal, but better than I had ever done before.
I was sidetracked at the end when my computer crashed, but I was able to piece things together from a file I sent someone and what I had printed out.
Since then my focus as been more on boyfriend, work, house, tax season, second job, etc. But every now and then I get a few minutes to think about it. Sometimes I scratch down a few words.
I have been stuck with what is the middle of the story. I think I’ve figured it out though.
Another problem? I’m not really as bitter as I was last year about this time of year when I started preparing for Nanowrimo. I need to channel some of those emotions because that is central to the plot and the sarcastic things some of the characters say.
So as life starts to settle down a bit, and I as continue to ignore things like dirty dishes and laundry, I hope to sit down and finish the darn thing.
