The Beginning of NaNoWriMo

National Novel Writing Month begins in an hour and a half. I sit in my lounge surrounded by candles burning low--the power has momentarily failed us once this evening already. My husband is sitting near me playing World of Warcraft, and I am thinking about my novel.

I am thinking about the hours that I will not speak to him, the times when we are talking and my eyes might glaze over as a fresh idea comes into my head. I am thinking about taking a notebook with me to work and hoping inspiration hits while I'm on my lunch break instead of when I'm terribly busy.

I am thinking that I will pick my coffee habit back up, after having only dropped it a month ago.

I am thinking, this year I will succeed. I'm going to take advantage of the last hour and a half of leisure time I'll have for awhile... and I hope you do as well.

For my fellow writers, I am going to pledge to complete this novel in one month! Who's with me?
