Hello, everyone!
I realize now that I haven’t mentioned one of the projects that I’ve been working on this month! While I’ve largely been distracted with Amazon releases for the future, trying to get up a stockpile so my absence won’t be that long again for quite the time even if I should get as sick as I was in January… I’ve also been amidst NaNoWriMo 2019!
The project I’ve been working on only has a code name because I feel “Untitled Madam Kistulot Project” rings a lot better than the poor title I gave the file when I started working. I might change it to that just for fun, even when released it will be VERY different.
NaNoWriMo, if you don’t know, is National Novel Writing Month! It’s been going on for quite some time, though this is only my second or third year intentionally participating. This is the case namely because the idea is to get 50k written in a month at the pace of 1,666 words/day as a goal. For those familiar with how prolific I can be, a part of me has felt a bit mean for competing because my daily goals for myself tend to be 5k, making it easily completed within ten days when the event goes on for 30.
However, as you also likely know, this year has been a little bit of a slog for me. Personal complications, illnesses, plane delays, you name it this year has had it going on and going wrong. As a result I ended up somewhat off of my rhythm, and do you know what always helps me?
Zeitgeists!
So I plunged face first into this year with an idea in mind, and I think it’s really flowed quite amazingly so far. I’m going to try going back to a serialized release structure for it on Amazon, so I hope you’ll all look forward to it! So far to tease I’d call it a cross between The Adventures of Silver Girl and Delivery. I hope you’ll all like it as much as I’m adoring writing it!
That said? I do heavily encourage all of my readers to give NaNoWriMo a chance if it’s up their alley! You can do it any month, any time of year! You can even use their site in non-november months!
If you want to make me a buddy, you can find me here on NaNo!
For now, I’m going to get back to some new writing! Until next week, take care of yourselves and each other!
