Brave New Something - “Preparing to Create”
[Part 05 of a 05 part series detailing the pre-production of my 2005 NaNoWriMo contribution]

All the pieces are in place, and November is still about two days away.

It’s going to happen, right? It’s just gotta’ happen.

I’ve been working on hitting the minimum 1667 words a day, and most of the time, I’ve gone over and above that number. And then there were some days when I didn’t even get close. There’s been no real happy medium, which is kind of disturbing.

But that being said, I’ve written more content in the past few days than I have in the last year. I’ve got the entire month’s worth of content ready for the site in November, and right now, I’m just itching to start writing this story, as it’s due way before any of the other stuff I have coming up.

But I can’t. Not for two days.

It’s driving me crazy.

But I can do it: I know I’m capable, and I’ve got some good friends cheering me on, so long as Soupy doesn’t suffer as a result. And no matter what the outcome, it’ll sure be an experience.

The Everlast begins on Tuesday.

Until then, doubt the impossible, and always stay lightly toasted.

Magnanimously yours,

-B. Schatz
