Update - Just Like the Elections

Go Vote!

Thanks everyone for your birthday wishes and yes, I just turned 50.

I got a tattoo for my birthday. I designed it myself. Guess what it is? I will post a picture of it as soon as I get my head out of my ..., you know.

I am participating in this year's
NaNoWriMo. So far I have passed the daily word count goal of 1,667 to reach 50 thou' by November 30th. I wrote a brief outline and character sketch this year and they have helped tremendously. Total word count as of last night was 5,572.

Thanks to those of you who still stop by. Eventually, I'll get back into the blog reading and writing habit.

    Good luck on Nanowrimo -- I was too swept up in the elections and now feel far too behind to jump in.

    I'll be excited to see the tatoo -- I am contemplating a second.

    And happy birthday -- many returns of the day.

    Happy Thanksgiving!
