I feel vaguely as though I'm letting the side down by not attempting Nano this year, but I've seldom in my life felt less fictive than I do right now. I'm not even using my idle-time braincycles to tell myself stories very much any more; they seem to be going into beading and the current wardrobe-renewal exercise instead.

I do have a plan, though. I have nearly enough un-blogged books read this year to do a mini-bookpost every day in November, and by the end of the month there should be even more. So I'll try to do that, if the travel mid-month doesn't interfere too much.

November is never going to be a good month for me as far as writing goes. Besides, despite always getting vagure urges to do NaNo, I've had to face the fact that I just can't write 1750 words a day, every day. 400-750 is doable. I can occasionally do a big splurge of 1500 plus if I have a whole scene ready in my head, but then there'll be a few meagre days to make up for it.

Right now I don't particularly feel like writing, but I have to have a 1500 words story written and polished by 6 November for part of the assessment for the creative writing course. So writing will have to happen over the next few days, whether I'm in the mood or not!

Mission Statement

Reading, writing, plant photography, and the small details of my life, with digressions into science and computing.
