Novembook 1st

Right. It is the first day of the eleventh month and it is time to put ass to chair and write a novel in thirty days.

I am procrastinating. Not my fault really, just dealing with some life issues here such as legal issues, potential new career and a family member flying down here for the week.

30,000 words in thirty days to develop a rough draft for this new novel. No fussing over function, grammar or missteaks. That is what the writing software, Ulysses, lives for. He just looooves to remind me about those punctuation marks being in the wrong place, or being completely ignored altogether. He red-flagged that “missteaks” mistake too. Damn, nothing gets by him.

Did I tell myself I was going to wean off of the soda this month? Did I tell myself that I had not and will continue to suck those down frequently? At least until December 1st anyway.

The sun is almost up, the body has been cleansed, the soda is on the desk so I am out of excuses.

Let’s write this thing.

P.S. Ulysses missed a comma that I intentionally left out. I win.
