I've officially validated my monstrosity of a NaNo novel, and have cleared the 50K mark this year with 53021. *giddy dance of exhaustion* I'm now so sick of that world and it's characters that I'm gleefully shoving them in corner until the middle of December. XD It's not that I'm not happy with what I churned out, because I am, it's that I've spent 30 days in tight quarters with these boys and I need a freaking break from them. Don't worry, come two weeks from now I'll allow them out of time out and begin rereading and seeing what all needs to be done to make the spaz rough into something I feel comfortable releasing on the world.
In the mean time, I've also managed somehow to write a really short story set in a resort in Hell...go figure where that one came from. It's off with my pumpkin, and I'm hoping to have it back within a week to fix it up all nice for a free December read to offer everyone. And no, I haven't forgotten about 'Peppermint', it's just got a ways to go before I'm less likely to cringe when I read it. ^^; But I'm pushing for a Christmas week release on that too, and of course, it'll be free for you all, being that it's the holidays.
That's about all that's happening in the world outside of the hell that is retail at this time of year, and I promise not to bore you with that. *scampers off to write more, so she'll have something to talk about in a week*

Accomplished so far; editing run thru of story#4, created grocery list in planner, cuddled tonks, stabbed at blurb, wrote 1.2K for Halloween story#1, and putzed around the interwebz reading inane things...success?

Editing time
So, I've got my time travel story back, and now have to buckle down and get some editing done in the next week. Once that's done, it's time to format it for submission and wave good-bye.

Meanwhile, in non-writing land our heroine has become obsessed with books. AGAIN. I just finished Dash and Lily's Book of Dares , and have to say that I love, love, loved it. It was cute, and engaging, and just a delightful romp through the skill that David Levithan and Rachel Cohn have in using the written word.
