National Novel Writing Month Starts
Good Start

November is National Novel Writing Month, a month during which thousands of novelists across the nation will forsake bathing, returning calls, walking the dog and raking leaves, just so that they can string together 50,000 words they will call a novel.

That's a lot of word stringing in 30 days.

Sixteen hundred and seventy words each day will get that done.

Those of us taking the challenge look forward to entering December with a pile of characters, situations, and actions that might eventually turn into something that others will eventually read.

Day one comes to a close and I've got a three hundred word cushion.
