Among the elite of the idiotic, my stature is massive.
The National Novel Writing Month of November is upon us, and I have foolishly decided to attempt..nay…succeed in the naive venture of completing an entire novel in the course of a single month. Obviously I didn’t have enough to do, what with being a husband to my wonderful and supportive wife, stay-at-home-father to three children, finding an agent for my other ready book, and dialogue writing for Black Chicken Studios. Ah well, I’m sure I’ll be fine.
For my project, I selected the skeleton of an ancient outline – skeleton because it was more timeline than outline and ancient because it was BC (before children). The Twenty Three Cities, by Colin Donahue. Just grabs you and makes you go, “Huh?”
Update #1. Rocked it yesterday. Totaled 247 words. Goal of 50k lookout! In all fairness, it was Sunday, day of rest…and The Walking Dead. Don’t judge me, just buy my stuff and blindly applaud!
