It's going to be hard work, but I think I'm going to finish it. At the moment, I've got just under 300 words remaining until I hit the 30K mark. Depending on what I get done tonight (I'm hoping to knock off at least another 1K words), that means I'd have to do around 3K words a day for the rest of the month to pull it off. That's certainly doable, and I've got Thursday and Saturday off... so I think I can do it. And I'll try. If I can break 40K on Thursday, I'll definitely be set. That's what I'm shooting for right now. (more...)

I don't think the NaNoWriMo project is going to work. It's November 22 and I just broke 26K words. Of course, if I keep making progress like I've made and hope to continue to make today -- this morning I woke up at 3:30 AM and thus far have done over 3K words (as I write this, it's nearly 10 AM) -- I could pull it off, but do I really want to do that? I dunno. I'll probably go strong through Thanksgiving and then, depending upon where I am on the novel, make a decision. But if I were you, I wouldn't hold my breath. On the plus side, if I drop it, you can count on getting an actual Scary-Crayon article before November's close. Rah. (more...)

Thanks for the words of wisdom, Splinter-san.

Dusty Plastic HELL: Hot Flash #9. Enjoy.

If not tomorrow, Scary-Crayon should have a new Hot Flash up this weekend. I also need to make SIGNIFICANT progress on the "novel" otherwise I'm not gonna make it. And that would SUCK. I hope I get 50K words churned out by the 30th... I'm only around 20K now and I've only got 11 days left. Doesn't look good. 🙁

I drew more bloggers. Can you guess who's who? (more...)
