Dear NaNo,
October was a hell of a month. Between two four-hour bus trips, reproducing an 8x7 of de Martelly's "No More Mowing" in chalk in two days, too much time around Republicans I'm related to, and a slight mineral deficiency that resulted in an evening in the emergency room, I wasn't really able to prepare (mentally or outline-wise) to write 50,000 words this month. I've only just started to feel like my old self again physically, and to be able to start chipping away at the mountain of much-needed house cleaning (because my dad? Not exactly Hugh Test), but still I am le tired.
This doesn't mean I won't do any writing! Last year's draft still needs a lot of revision. I just won't likely be doing anything at the rate of 1,667 words a day.
There's always June, August, and next November.
