I did not get any sentences written on my main story, sorry. It turns out I started writing too soon and needed to go back and get some foundational shit done.So this evening I spend two hours house- and job-shopping (kind of reminds you of last spring, huh?), and I got a lot of things figured out. Here are some of them, in no particular order:
Chanson, Colorado
Miles Tariq
Chanson High School, black/gold, Pioneers
10 miles outside of town
class conflict
solar farming
The solar farming part is especially brilliant because it is an incredible stroke of irony. You'll see. I am starting to see how things might turn out later, which is very, very good. I just have to get so excited by my plans that I can't wait to write the first draft, otherwise I'll spend the rest of my month planning and not writing (isn't that like 75% of a "real" novelist's work?).
Words Today: 0 (4 pages planning notes, though)
Total Words: same as yesterday
Sentence: sorry.
Brain Flashes Had: at least 11, maybe 12

What foundational stuff are you referring to? Ever read Stephen King's book on writing? I thought it was good - I haven't actually read all that much of his - The Stand, The Dark Tower, and now I have The Dome, though I haven't started it. He can spin a good yarn.
I like writing yet it feels like a chore much of the time. I've thought about writing a novel myself, but haven't seriously thought I'd do it. Maybe when I have more time. Maybe not.
Nice seeing you around again! It's been awhile!
I read On Writing in one of my college classes, and can completely see in his writing the effects of his knocking back five to eight thousand words a day. There's a lot to be said, I think, for developing fluency.
I'm working right now on a scene-by-scene plot blueprint. I tried wandering aimlessly, but I have too many threads up in the air (this is WAY different from short fiction!) that I want to tie together just so, and I don't want to have to do the kind of "editing" that means "completely rewriting 70% of the first draft." I'm having good success mapping out scenes by thinking first about function--what things need to happen or reveal themselves to move the story in the direction I want.
Anyway, I am pleased so far. It turns out it's a great break from all the stuff I'm supposed to be doing, like grading and research projects, but it's not the kind of procrastination I ever have to feel really guilty about, like if I was napping or watching movies on Lifetime to avoid doing work.
You have 11 months to decide if you want to do NaNoWriMo next year--doing it with a group really helps you stay focused and not get too bogged down in your own seriousness.
It's nice to be around! I'll eventually get back to writing more - it is as inevitable as the seasons. Maybe when my son is potty trained. Heh.
So when do we get to see your finished product? Or will I have to wait in line to get an autographed copy at the book store?

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of troubles when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in large starting capital.
Nowadays, I feel good, I started take up real money.
It's all about how to choose a proper partner who uses your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, and shares the profit with me.
You may get interested, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:

Hello everyone!
I would like to burn a theme at this forum. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of financial piramyde, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For quite a long time, I make money with the help of these programs.
I'm with no money problems now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I make 2G daily, and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I'm very close at catching at last a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Visit my blog to get additional info.

Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!
Mike
