NaNoWriMo and a new submission

Finnegan’s Pig, a folk-taley kind of thing, is off to Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine.  So far, my goal of submitting one short story per week is holding out (over the course of two weeks, ha ha!).  If I am able to maintain this momentum during the fall and winter, I’m sure I won’t be able to once my work picks back up again in the spring so I’ll try to get as much written and sent out as is humanly possible over the next several weeks.

Well, it’s NaNo time again.  I think I’ll give it a whirl this year.  I tried last year but ended up getting pretty nastily sick, which put me behind by a week and with a wedding in November I couldn’t catch up.  Oh, well!  The idea I hatched for last year’s NaNo needed another year to mature anyway.  But now I’ve got a rockin’ outline for that story and I’m ready to give it another shot at coming to life.  Or perhaps I’ll work on Walk Like an Egyptian for NaNo.  I’ve got a few chapters written already but I sort of hate them passionately and would like to completely re-do them.  This would be non-cheating, I suppose.

Today is our three-year anniversary.  We’re not going to do much today, but last night we went out to dinner at Palisade.  It was great, as always.  I love Palisade.  <3
