November is National Novel Writing Month!



Recommended Posts

Whoo hoo! Glad you guys are in. This is my second year. I "won" last year, and for the record, my 50k words was about 120 pages. It was EXHILARATING to win last year. I had a bottle of chilled champagne on hand.

I got there in just 21 days. I was damn near obsessed!

This year I'm going much more slowly. Nary a word written in two days. GASP!

Having you all on board should help motivate me!!!

Managed to get in about 2400 words last night. If I keep up this pace then I will certainly have the 50K in no time. LOL!!

Wellllllllllllllll,

I've been so busy working on "Havenwood II" that I haven't actually written any in the NaNoWriMO novel. But I know what it is going to be.

Synopsis (very):

An antiques dealer, who possesses the psychic ability to "read" the antiques he touches must use that gift to solve the murder of another dealer who is his friend. In doing so he learns that he was unknowingly involved in his friends murder. As he unravels the mystery he discovers that he has been betrayed and he must come to grips with the feelings that arise in himself as he learns that this friend he is avenging wasn't much of a friend at all.

So far almost 5500 words. My title is "How do you get the crap off?" Cool title huh? Anyone care to venture on that the book is about?

Furniture Re-finishing? Walking through a chicken Coop?

ok, I am not writing, either - but only because I will be vacationing for the last two weeks of this month.

I am strictly here as a cheerleader.

Give me a "W"....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
