I can’t believe November is here already. I signed up for NaNoWriMo again this year.  I made my donation to keep me honest and to get that nifty little golden halo on my NaNo writer page and here I am half way through the day with no words to show for it.  Hmmm, I suppose that is pretty much how I start every November 1st.

Life has been throwing me a lot of curves this year so I have given no thought at all to the planning of a new project but since I still desperately need to write, I've decided to pull a former NaNo project out of the ether and finally complete it.  It’ll probably take 50k new words to finish it. I have gone in and deleted all the words I should have erased long ago so now I have a clean but very short draft to work on. (don’t worry all you seasoned NaNoers out there – I will only count my NEW words not the old ones!) If I can’t get the full 50k on this novel, I have a couple of non-fiction projects I've been playing around with that I can also work on. 

So there you have it. November 1st is here and I will start to work any minute now – well, after I play some games, dust my computer screen, have another cup of coffee….

Not as bad as I expected - at least I wrote one page worth of words.  Oh well, it's an empty glass for me today.
