it's coming!
I know I haven't blogged much lately. A lot going on and yeah, it's kinda hard to sit and think of something entertaining to say everyday. Granted, I could say something every day...but I always teeter on that point of it having to be entertaining.
It's probably because I'm still in the mindset that when I read blogs it's like looking thru the window of someone else's house. It's a little known fact that I do window surf when I'm out driving. Window surfing is something my mother and I invented when I was 11 years old. We loved driving thru the big 'ritzy' neighborhoods, looking thru the big picture glass of other people's houses. Most people were only watching television, but sometimes you could catch other things. Fathers holding new babies, or mothers pointing their fingers at a row of naughty children.
When I read blogs it's kinda the same thing. I like reading and knowing something about someone else when they aren't always aware that I know it. Window surfing...
Nanowrimo is almost upon me!
Argh.
I'm scared. lol.
I have somewhat written an outline for my 'novel', but I have no real clear direction yet.
Another issue with Nanowrimo, along with shaking in my boots because I hate failure...(that is a whole other blog post!) is whether or not I'll share my novel. Some people don't. I am not sure if I will. It totally does not help that my sister-in-law, who is a fantastic human being, if you don't know her someday you will, she is in the process of having one of her books published! So...yeah, I say I don't live by anyone else's yardstick but my own, but we all know that I lie about that. haha. It's hard to not compare!
I figure we're both writers, she just has fire under the seat of her pants. I'm lucky if I feel warm on my best days. Procrastinator's UNITE!
It's sooooo tempting to 'forget' that I want to do this until I remember in December. hehe.
But, I know deep down inside I want to attempt this. I journal every day and with every word I write, there is another word that is just aching to be born from me.
2 ppl with something to say:
I've been thinking a lot about nanowrimo too! I keep trying to come up with an...idea, lol. I haven't decided if I'm doing it yet. I love to write, but I think I'm more of a nonfictional author, lol. We'll see...
Thank you for letting us look in your "window"!
I want to read your novel! WHEN you finish it I want to read it. (notice I didn't say "if"? I have faith in ya girl!)
