Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm not officially signing up either, but I'm hoping to push myself to start writing again.

Because books.

Do it, Burrell! We'll be cheerleaders.

not your mom's socks.

Do it, Burrell!

Amy, that sounds like an excellent plan.

Go PC!

Gud, I am. I'm trying to work a second POV character into an existing novel. The result is both revelatory and BUMPY.

Go, you writing people! Go! You can do it!

I just sent the completed draft for the novel I've been working on to my agent. I made my self-imposed deadline of sending it to her by my birthday, whoo!

Now to nervously wait for feedback. (She liked the 1/3 of it she'd seen before. I'm trying to reassure myself with that memory.)

Woo, Jilli! That is wonderful!

I haven't even opened Scrivener and November is half over. Oh well.

Congrats, Jilli!

I haven't gotten much writing done this month, what with work and memorial and obits and such. But I did some! And hope to do more after tomorrow, and before the next paper set hits me on, er, Wednesday.

That's awesome, Jilli!

Go go Burrell!

Short story, -t?

I was planning on using one of my old WIPs (that I'd like to work on some more/re-work, whatever) to learn how to use Scrivener, Sox. And probably will, eventually, but I'm having a hard time carving out the time right now.

Because books.

I took out a bunch of books from the library for research, and handwrote three legal pages of a scene today. Whoo.
