no na no ~

just me blithering here ~ i keep saying i am not NaNoing, and yet i filled out my profile over there and i am writing (a wee over 4k this morn), so i am not sure how long this denial will continue. i picked as the subject, what ought to be a novella called After Shiloh, which is one of those stories that's not really critical in the scheme of all things (or maybe it is, who knows anymore), but i thought it would be interesting to tell. i also think it will give me an opportunity to explores certain aspects of James's personality that i tend to forget about ~ particularly regarding his post-operative mood swings.

there's also a ton of detail work i have never really figgered out on this one, like what's James doing at Shiloh in the first place? dunno if i can answer that, but this exercise will give me a chance to explore.

Oh, you've been sucked into the soul-consuming vortex known as NaNo... It's like the mafia... you can never get out. They keep pullin' you back in!

Good luck with After Shiloh, Boots. Not that you know, you're really doing NaNo or anything... that was more of a hypothetical good luck. Just in case or something. ;-)

isn't it a strange coincidence that i just happened to be writing a 50k novella during the month of november?

will wonders never cease?

hahahaha ~ thank you for the well-wishes, NaNo or no.
