Since I changed what I was doing for NaNoWriMo (again) a few days ago, I realized today that I might as well post the draft (in all of its terrible glory) on here after all.
Here’s the part I wrote on November 2nd. What I write today will be posted at the end of the day/tomorrow.

I have a lot of things that I’d like to do in my life. Too many, in some respects. I’m generally good at recognizing the practicality/plausibility of achieving each of them, and in some cases trimming the ideas down to make them more doable.
But there is one such dream that I have which I honestly don’t think will ever happen, mostly because the first requirement would be having lots of money. And I mean lots of money. As I like to tell myself frequently, however, there is always the chance (however infinitesimally small) that I will someday come into a very large quantity of money, so sometimes I pass my mental idle time by planning out the logistics of achieving this dream if I had the money.

That’s the good [...]

I am writing a novel right now, which I started last weekend. My current goal, then, is to complete the first draft of the manuscript (meaning, get through [...]

It’s no good. I am afraid that I must admit defeat.
You see, I write. I currently have two novels in progress, one of which I intend to have the first draft completed and be well on the way to the second by autumn. In addition, I have a series of… well, short [...]

The process has begun!
It’s been a while since I last went to college, and I still don’t have much to show for it other than some university apparel and a few thousand in loans. I still dream of someday having a real college degree. So, a few months ago, I decided that this [...]
