Maritzia’s Thoughts

stolen shamelessly from witchofthewildwood.

Ask me to take a picture of any aspect of my life that you’re interested in/curious about - it can be anything from the house I live in to my favorite shoes. Leave your choice here as a comment, and I will reciprocate by taking the pictures and posting them as an entry. That way you get to know a little bit about my life.

If you want to do this in your journal, pass it on! I know I’m interested in your lives and would love to see more

Yes, boys and girls, it is once again time for NaNoWriMo, otherwise known as National Novel Writing Month. In case you haven’t noticed, that’s a link. Be a good little boy or girl and follow the link (don’t worry, it opens another page so you can keep reading here). So, time to throw ourselves to the mercy of the muse and attempt to put 50,000 words to paper in 30 days.

Last year, I decided to do NaNoWriMo at the last minute (like on November 2nd), so I had no preperation at all. I hadn’t so much as an outline or a character list, just a vague idea for a story. This year, I’m working at being a bit more prepared. I have about 1/3 of the story outlined. I’ve got about 1/2 the characters planned out. I need to buckle down in the next couple of weeks and get more of the prep work done so I can hit the ground running on November 1st.

So, who else here is a crazy person and signing up for NaNoWriMo. I finished last year on my first attempt, so this year I’m psyched!
