Wrote an essay and sent it off

Scary because most things I've been submitting have been coming back. 

I'm excited to see if it makes the cut.

Got another to go revise.

NANOWRIMO Day 16

Still writing.  I have never written past day 15.  So happy.

AND

the writing is really good in some places. Some is key word.

I love it when I'm writing and my characters revolt against my character outlines/charts.

No, they're telling me. This is who I am.

NANOWRIMO-Day 3

Still writing.

NANOWRIMO-Day 2

My word count is way behind, but I'm writing. I am not good at managing my time; at the computer, I am so easily seduced by the internet.  (And I've got bears to make.)

But I wrote today and I'm happy with the words I got out.  Very happy, though they were few.

Tomorrow, I'll find a space of time to do it again.

Next day, repeat.  And then again.

NANOWRIMO

Very slow start to this novel writing.

59 words in an hour.

Not good. (in the voice of the Russian guy in "2012")

A yes!

A tiny thing coming up this week on twitter at 7 by 20.

The Book Festival is going on right now.  I never posted pics from my time there last year. 

Stuff I picked up while I was there:

Pitched to an agent.  Informative. He said send me something.  Ha!  Agent #4 who would be interested if I just had a book!

Went to a workshop and did this:

Excited, excited!

Been working out a non-fiction piece in my head and suddenly--a book about writing, a video, a Facebook post--all with information I need!

Grrrrrr

I hate when the jacket description is better than the book!
