Hip hooray and hallelujah!

For the first time ever, I successfully completed the NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month, for the uninitiated) challenge. In the month of November, I wrote 50,000 words that more or less pertained to the same topic. ;) Just kidding! I actually added 12 chapters to LEW (The Light at the End of the World) and will be finishing the entire book tomorrow, if not tonight, provided that none of my characters stages an eleventh-hour jailbreak.

I'm feeling very accomplished and very pleased with myself, and while the book certainly could use some editing love (all books do, but especially those written at ludicrous speed), I think it's turning out pretty well.

Yes, Crickets, I said I'm happy with my writing. That's what you call a red-letter day. Make a note of it - I don't know when this feeling will be coming again. I just know that I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts.

If I don't chirp at you before then, I hope that your respective cricketdoms have a beautiful holiday season!
