The Party...

Went very well. A goodly number of people attended, and an insanely vast amount of food, both supplied my me and brought by others was available and consumed. The turkey was likely the best bird I've ever done- meltingly-tender meat for the win! There are leftovers of course, and most of the cleanup is done- I really like disposable tablecloths! I am now relaxing afterward, 5 of the six carved pumpkins still lit out front. I'll put up pics on my FA site shortly.

Once I'm clear-headed I'll start my NaNoWriMo story... But I dunno if it'll be before I sleep. I WILL do 3000 words today!

Well...

I'd PLANNED to start writing last night after the party, after I finished some reading. Ah, the best laid plans and all that...

My desire to write vanished when I found that I'd dropped my book when I fell asleep! I gave up and went to bed, and I didn't wake up til noon. A solid ten hours out cold. So I'm finishing my reading now, just had lunch (leftovers!!) and I'll make with the writing shortly. I have just under half the day to do my 3000 word goal. :)

First NaNoWriMo Post!

Okay, I started it. The working title is 'Bear False Witness', and I've written 3244 words so far. Not bad, especially since I exceeded my planned goal of 3000! Anyway, what I think is the entire first chapter lies behind the cut. :)
