NaNoWriMo

                            


National Novel Writing Month is officially November. Every year. Sure, I'd heard of it before. But I'm not writing a novel. Nor am I doing a stand-up job of finishing my book, which remains 95% complete, just as it was last year.

      
 

Essentially, the goal of NaNoWriMo is to serve as a writers support group, the end point being completion of a 50,000 word novel by writing every day in the month of November. It sounds harder than it is. That's about 1666 words per day. I routinely dictate charts in excess of 3,000 words in any given day, but those words are repetitive, bland and far from creative or flowery.

                     
      

So I am going to *attempt* to write something every day in the month of November. I say *attempt* because I have great certainty I will fail! But I want to get a head start. This is a way for me to re-start writing, keep writing, and possibly get some usable material. 

And thus I pose this offer- ask me anything! Within reason... that's a disclaimer for some of my more colorful friends. You know who you are. Anything goes...

What flavor of jelly beans is your favorite? None, I hate them.

  

How did you choose goats? We received a baby goat as a wedding gift!


Do goats really eat anything? No absolutely not, they're very picky....and spoiled.


How many pairs of shoes do you own? Ummmm...a lot. I'd have to go count. I have a problem.

So this is my goal. And challenge. But I need help conjuring up topics to cover. If people read it, great. If not, great. Read it to your pigs, or goats, or horses, or chickens.
