Coming Up for Air

I always do NaNoWriMo, but I rarely win.  Actually, I’ve won once (2011) – the first year I tried it.  November is just a bad month (for me) to do this, and I’m just not that fast a writer.  So I’m at 3000 words on day 11.  Not too impressive. November always seems to fill […]

NaNoWriMo

National Novel Writing Month is upon us.  I participated for the first time in 2011 and hit my 50,000 word goal with a novel titled Half-hand.  I never quite finished that novel because I decided to complete a trilogy I was working on first.  In 2012 I participated with the second book in my Kingdom […]
