NaNoWriMo

So we are about half way through November. I should be writing my NaNo stuff and not here but the kids won't stop talking to me so I am killing some time until they for to bed. I haven't written anything yet today. But at this moment I am doing fantastically well. I am at 37,000 words. I need to have 50,000 by the end of the month. I have come to a conclusion. I will not be done with this novel. I may not even be half way done and the other conclusions I have made: this has now become an epic fantasy and will have to arc its way through 3 books before it is finished. hmm...

Things I have discovered or rediscovered: I REALLY like to write this way. I REALLY like to write. I think I stink at it when I write "smile" too much. I have to be careful when I am driving because I am so lost in my thoughts, I forget where I am going. I get irritated when I can't get to my story. Which means this blog post will be short. Maybe later I will post something or if you want to see what I have going on and check my progress because I guess I am padding my ego a little right now- which I typically don't have an ego but I look like I have one throwing this out there- You can go to NaNoWriMo.org. Search for Layzoo in the toolbar and click on profiles. You will find mine. You can click on the summary of my novel and I included an excerpt. You won't see my novel though. It is in my computer still. You can't really post much there but you could always come back here and let me know you saw it. You can tell me it is ridiculous if you want but I hope you won't feel that way.
I am going to go write more of this epic thing I have gotten myself into. I have to catch up to one of my "buddies" Paul. He is already at 42,000 words and I am 4000 behind him now.
