Nanupdate
Yesterday I hit 75% of the 50K goal, which is pretty damned good for just over halfway through the month. (I started at about 53%, this being wuss-mode NaNo, but I'm still quite pleased with it.)
I just reached 39,041 words, or 78%. (That's 78% of NaNo, not 78% of the book. Probably just over a third of the eventual book.) I took a productivity hit on Saturday because I went to a local maker group's open house, and got thoroughly distracted by the potential of OMG the toys! But apparently raw Mustelidae* and theology discussion was what I needed to get back in the groove.
I have poked a bit at the convention, and been thwarted by internet problems and people not cashing their reimbursement checks. I have done my best to ignore the estate for a while, and been thwarted by relatives wanting status reports. Real life remains a work in progress.
Now there's a cat sitting on my arm. :-)
* As the sticker says, pay no attention to my browsing history; I'm a writer, not a serial killer.
