A bit of a few days!
November 1: commence active writing on Cracked Phoenix Book 3: Venus Smash, because this is (inter)National Novel-Writing Month, and that is what we do. It being an even-numbered year, pattern-matching says odds are good. Extra incentive for win: 50% off Scrivener for Windows once it's out. Ooo.
(November 2-24: A not insignificant amount of writing, but a not insignificant amount of slacking, recovering, job searching, and having a social life. Excessive drinking of coffee. Discovery that shiny new netbook randomly reboots itself, and not because Windows is being an assclown. Growing instability of the venerable and tied-together-with-string desk chair. Budget crisis brought on by not being a motherfucking adult, mostly in the form of excessive drinking of coffee. Irritated shoving-of-bucket under sink to deal with suspected leak.)
( The last few days of November were busy and exciting. Nothing actually blew up except on MythBusters. )
( BLAM. )
( And on to the post-NaNo stressmonkey bits. )
So, uh. Busy couple days. Draft's not finished, but 50k is; enough's done so it'll get finished, when I'm not so dragged out. My hair looks fine. I can bake again if I want to. I'm glad I survived.
