New development on the writing front

i found a link on the NaNoWriMo site to Lulu.com, and since they love the NaNoWriMo writers, from today to January 16th, they'll publish your novel for free

OMG!!!!

this just makes me want to finish it by the 31st even more

Nancy, do this!!

Day twenty eight: A Winner in Winter

yay me, i won at NaNoWriMo





so, everyone can congratulate me or something





on a different note, it's been freakishly cold here, with a total of 43 centimetres of snow falling from Saturday night to early Monday morning... umm, earth to weather, this is B.C., we're not prepared for any amount of snow that's over a couple centimetres... it's the end of November... where's all the rain we should be getting????... it's been so so so cold here, like, minus 10 degrees C, and it's just horrible... i doubt i'll be driving anywhere until a lot of it melts away


it's looking like it'll be better over the next week, with sun and some rain on the week-end... which'll be fun since i'll be driving home on Sunday night, since i'm housesitting for someone right now... at least it's not that cold inside

Day twenty: Celebration Time

woot woot!!
yay me! yay me!
*doing a happy dance*

i just got to 50,000 words, well, a little more, but it means i actually did it and wrote my butt off for the past 20 days

i think i'll be celebrating for the rest of the day by writing more

Day sixteen: Recovering from hell

O-M-freaking-G

i finally have access to the Internet, because the power was out from about 2:40 yesterday afternoon to 3:45 this morning... 13 hours with no power... it was SO annoying!!!! and SO COLD!!!!

i got no writing done, couldn't read any of my e-mails, and didn't really get a whole lot of sleep, so when i woke up this morning i wasn't really in a good mood

o well

hopefully i can get a whole lot more writing done today, and recover some more from yesterday
