Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book?

nano_participant_icon_large.gif So after a couple years of good intentions, and with a lot of downtime on my hands I've launched myself into National Novel Writing Month. I had a pretty good first day, getting nearly the 1924 words that is my goal for each day. The idea is to spend all November writing like crazy and get 50k words in by midnight of the 30th. I'm writing the story I've had in my mind for several years, and while I've surprised myself a few times with some nice passages, I'm really struggling. I had a busy day Saturday so I got kind of behind. I can't wait till something happens, though. I gotta get this kid out of the University so something can happen.

I picked up my shovel and I went to the mine

But the sun shone today, so there wasn't many people at the studio. Chuck and I took advantage of it and made up 5 and a half glazes to try out on the gas kiln. I'm exhausted and contemplating a nice early bedtime, as Debbie and Kayla took a lil road trip to let Kayla stay with her dad down south and visit friends.

Also, a note to self. Don't drink a half gallon of orange juice just because you have no refrigeration.
