NaNoWriMo - (Day 06)

(B. Schatz)

We're at Day 06. How are things going?

Well, when Day 05 hit, so did the family drama, and I got a little behind. But, the cruel fact about NaNoWriMo, is that there are no excuses. November is a month just like any other, with life and all the grandness that it brings. Will you be lucky and have a good month or hit a rough patch and have a bad month? It's all the luck of the draw, and in the end, time will march on. You get no extensions. Midnight is midnight.

But I'm not letting things get me down. The adage where I ply my boot to your face whilst you doubt me still stands, and Abe Lincoln is stirring in his grave. You hear me?

It will get done.

Of course, you can catch a bit of my progress by clicking on "The Everlast" link over to the left, and you can get a look at my word count progress by hitting up my NaNoWriMo profile.

And hey, Dougie is still chugging right along with his own story, "The Adventures of Little Timmy", and Craigerton J. Reade has graciously pried open some front page space on Still on the Shelf to show us just how badly he's putting the rest of us to shame with his word count.

Yes, I know there's an adage that says "quality over quantity", but you can't exactly use that when the quality is also there.

Oh, how I loathe him for it.

Anyway, just thought I'd update you on how things are progressing. Except at least one more post of The Everlast tomorrow, followed by a picture of a baby panda.

Because I can.

Until then, stay lightly toasted!

Magnanimously yours,

-B. Schatz
