- It's turned into one of THOSE weeks: I'm falling behind on my writing. I'm working extra hours, which is good for the paycheck, but very tiring. There has been an atmosphere of general grumpiness in our house. And I could really use a long shower. (I'm not smelly, but I do need one.) HOWEVER... I am still breathing, all of my fingers and toes are intact and functional and I have most of ...

- As sure as death, writers have those bloodied moments – frenzied passings of time made up of the abandonment of passion and craft for fear and self-consciousness. But there is Good, and some of us have seen the Good. People are willing to connect, to truly read and listen and think about the words we’re saying at once so eagerly and timidly. The words are Gods and Devils: they elevate us and ...

- After 4 days of grey dreariness where one has been stuck inside,I awoke this morning to the sun shining through my window. Imagine that! The day was warm for November,as I went off to church , the church too warm with the many families there with squalling babies,singing todlers,and snuffling Annika and her mother seated next to me.The rest of the day was spent attending to things that ...

- WHAT ARE YOU THANKFUL FOR? Come on, admit it. We’ve all done it. We’ve all been in some scary, sick or sad situation, one that makes us desperate enough to promise the deities some positive act or that we’ll refrain from ever do something negative ever again. When it’s over, we’re more than thankful. Then life gets in the way. How quickly we forget…. During the month of ...

- November is here. To me, it's the month of the most change. Halloween is over (barely), the costumes are packed away, and my pumpkin is withered and waiting for trash pickup. The leaves have finished turning, and now they lay on the ground, leaving bare branches sticking up into wintery-looking skies. We've "fallen back" and said goodbye to another daylight savings period. The sun is ...

- Although it's still a month away, I'm bringing up the subject of November as National Novel Writing Month. If you've never joined this crazy club consider doing it this year. It's a pain with perks you will not regret. A few years ago... so I decided to do it. I was unemployed, so yes, I had lots of time on my hands, but remember, I was looking for a job which is pretty mentally ...

- I’m glad that writing the “Obscure, Obfuscate, etc.” blog is finally over because I can now finally press on to more important matters like going back to writing more interesting stuffs. It is not a complete waste, though, because I have learned how to write from a novelist point of view other than writing from a first person’s such as this one. I was supposed to give it a shot on ...

- My NaNoWriMo experience this year was the best I've ever had. I learned so much and will now be missing and craving November for a very long time.

- The month of November, occasionally a disastrous time for the Nation, for my City, and for my loved ones, has been rather good to us this year. Barack Obama is to be our New President, and already his decisions appear (cautiously) promising. George W. Bush, the undoubted worst President in our History, is preparing in his habitually sly way to leave another failed job and move on ...

- Well, this place is pretty cool. Lets see how long I stay interested, as I am notorious for loosing interest in things almost as fast as I get interested. XD I come from the world Nanowrimo and I come in peace bearing gifts of shotting grammer and shottier spelling. Take them in peace... if not full hearted gratitude, we are a peaceful kind on Nanowrimo. Thou shalt not be harmed.
