Who makes cakes when they need 4,000 words?
I do.
Okay. Time to write. Maybe someday I can play with this yarn!
The math of 14×1667=
My friend and I are both behind. We are finding zooming sprint sessions helps a lot. So we’re going to try one more this evening.
I’ll write a blurb as soon as I know where these characters lead me.
Tomorrow I have a doctor’s appointment, X-ray to see what could be causing my blood pressure issues. My friends have diagnosed POTS but we’ll see.
To make it worth our while, we plan on getting shopping done, and a battery bought, and dog hunt. I so miss Kali. I want another dog! So I guess that’s a couple requests for good thoughts and prayers.
Creating can be fun, if you have all the time in the world and no stress. But when guilt gangs up on creative juices it seems there is no more juice.
Yep, that’s what is happening with the NaNoWriMo. I have 16,115 words at this moment. I’m going to go find prompts to move the story along. I need 18,337. See ya tomorrow!
Maybe.
You see these crazy fun socks were nearly to the heel part. I found a mistake. Tinking back.
A quick NaNoWriMo report. Empty now has 15,231 words. I should have 16,670. So back to the storyboard.
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “meat/meet/mete.” Use one or use ’em all for bonus points. Have fun!
Meeting the word count in NaNoWriMo is the challenge of November. Today I should have a total of 6,668 words. No one is going to mete out punishment for not reaching that goal, but I try not to write things that are not fun for me. That means I want a story I can chew on. Something meaty. Even if my main characters are vegetarian.
By the way, my project is entitled “Empty.” And it no longer is. I actually have 6,585. My characters are in trouble so I need to get back and make it worse before heading to bed.
Here’s a working cover:
No vampire, but something is up. I don’t know until my characters tell me. It’s fun!
2,106 words in a novel titled Empty and I still don’t know what I’m writing.
OR as some of us call it:
Happy NaNo Eve!
Who’s joining me in the Night of Writing Dangerously at midnight tonight?
I took my nap. I’m ready. I don’t get very social. But if others want, we can Zoom or FB chat to feel in touch. Have fun!
Per Linda:
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “the first 3 words of the first full sentence.” Okay, follow me here. This is what I want you to do: 1. Grab the closest book to you when you sit down to write your post. 2. Open it to a random page. 3. Locate the first complete sentence on that page. 4. Use the first three words of that sentence to start your post, then take it from there–write whatever comes to mind. That’s it! Have fun!
Memory is necessary… Duh!
Most of the easy to grab books from my recliner are knitting or crochet ones. Or writing. This book was part of the inspiration for last year’s NaNoWriMo. Pensées, French for Reflexions. The book is dry but there are pearls of wisdom along with some biased thoughts education and reason can overcome.
By the way, the full quote is: Memory is necessary for all the operations of reason. So much better than: To create an airy grid texture, crochet using the TSS into the back bump of the Return Row (see chapter Stitch Bars, picture E, No. 5).
Although, come to think of it: To create an… Leaves lots to a far different blog entry.
End of stream. Duo and crochet are calling.
