Saturday NaNo update
Friday NaNo word count = 1768
Total NaNo word count = 36,374
I'm feeling better today. Thank you all for your "get well" wishes -- you guys are the best fans a writer could ever want! I don't think it was a cold; I think it was an allergy thing. When I moved offices at my day-job on Tuesday, I kicked up a lot of dust. I'm not allergic to dust, but a mold spore or two will get me every time.
This weekend I'm going to kick word count butt. I think I'm back on track, plot wise, though I know I still have a few things to figures out. But I'm not stressing over it. I never get the entire solution to a problem all at once. It comes in bits and peeks. All will be revealed eventually. It always is.
I have to do the grocery shoppping this morning, then I'm going to help Derek in the yard for a while. He's been spreading (and hauling) mulch into the "wild area" in the back yard. The only place for the mulch to be delivered was our driveway. So until all of it is hauled out of the driveway, we can't get our cars into the garage. A real pain in the patootie last week when the remnaints of Ida came through and dumped about 7 inches of rain. Trust me, even with an umbrella, there is NO WAY to get in and out of a Jeep Wrangler without getting soaked.
COMING SOON: I sent chapters 1-3 of Bewitched & Betrayed to Webmaster Todd yesterday for programming. It'll probably go up the second week in December as my Christmas present to you all. I'll be sure to let you all know exactly when.
Have yourselves a great (and productive, for you NaNo'ers) weekend!

I was wondering about those chapters. Last year you posted first chapters from TTWD just before Christmas.
Thank you!!!!!
Yippeee! A Christmas present! I love presents! I'm glad you're feeling better. :)
Hey, my birthday's around then. I get three chapters of B&B for my birthday!!!!
I'm very glad you're feeling better. Mold spores can be really nasty, can't they? {sympathetic smile}
The chapters should be interesting. {Smile}
Yay for chapters!
You are on track word count wise too Lisa. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
I, on the other hand, am having some issues. I may have to take out the notebook and do some words that way, because they are just not coming to me right now. And that is not good. I am behind word count wise. If I don't make up words today...well it won't be pretty.
