Nano and my blog

The month of November has raced by, I can't believe I'm writing this on the last day of the month. Only a month left of this year, WOW.

Well, you may be thinking that I've been pretty quiet on here lately. Yes, I have. November has been a busy month with Nano. But hey, it was well worth it. I did my 50,000 words. More to come on that in another post though.

So now that Nano is done, I can get back to concetrating on my writing - stories, my blog etc. etc.

My next interview will be posted shortly, so look out for that.

I look forward to posting my next news, so until then. Chow for now!

What am I Up to?

If anyone is wondering if and when I am posting another interview, the answer to the If is yes. When - well that may be a few weeks.

I am one of those crazy people who decided to take on NaNo, and it is taking up all my spare time. I do have another interview planned, and in fact the questions and answers are almost ready for posting. But there is still work to be done, behind the scenes so to speak.

Please do keep an eye on my blog, and I will let you know when my next interview will be up.

Otherwise, NaNo has taken up much of my time since november 1st. I am hoping to make it two wins out of two, but that remains to be seen. I am enjoying seeing how all the other participants are doing, both on the ICL boards, and on the NaNo site.

To all my followers who are doing NaNo, have fun. I hope to be able to support you through this month of madness.
