National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) is starting in just a few days – are you planning to embark on the novel-writing challenge? I’ve done it four times before, and it’s such a rush. I skipped the last few years to focus on making movies and rewriting my WIP (my second NaNo novel), but I’m ready to jump back in this year with some story-making madness. I’ve spent the past few weeks waffling back and forth between two ideas, but as the start day looms, I’m actually feeling pulled toward a third late-blooming idea. Since I’m a complete pantser rather than a planner, I’m not too concerned, but I do need to decide on one pretty soon – at least in time to pick names for my main characters!
As for my other writing adventures, here are my 15 Minute Tweet Tales for the past week. I didn’t realize I had two tales this week about witches performing curses until I just reread them. I guess it’s appropriate considering it’s Halloween week.
10/23 – "Your face is emetic!" Ann sighs when Tim just shrugs. It's tough being an erudite bully – her victims are too lazy to look up her insults.
10/24 – Since her dog sheds, Pam bought a couch that matched his fur color, but his apatetic coat made him tough to see. Poor Fido's now flat.
10/25 – The king thought the turbinate hedge maze was a perfect place to meet his lover. The queen thought so, too. Awkward afternoon delight.
10/26 – The grass drinks in roric droplets, but shrivels; it's not normal moisture but tears of a witch cursing the land for killing her love.
10/27 – Most women rush past the thersitical construction workers, but Kim saunters by: she paid a lot for her body and is glad it's appreciated.
10/28 – She visits a shrink hoping discussing past relationships will lead to a satori about her bad taste in men. She ends up screwing him.
10/29 – His body twists and writhes as the curse takes effect, giving him ungual appendages unlike any creature on earth. Never insult a witch.
