NaNoWriMo's a-comin'

Here it is again!  The dawn of writing season!  October 1 usually marks the relaunch of the NaNoWriMo website.  Very exciting!  However, I cannot let my excitment to write overpower my need to get my running finished!  I am still 3 days away from C25K graduation.  It's been so darn hot here that running is pretty much out of the question, even in the evenings.  I'm determined to graduate before I actually run the 5K on October 23 though!

So back to writing....I'm getting pumped!  I've got lots of ideas stewing around in the ol' noggin in the evenings while I crochet (working on two afghans for my nieces).  My plot this year, as with most, is going to be another sarcastic/satire/humor novel.  It seems to be the niche that I've put myself in, my attempt to dip into drama last year burned brightly for a while but then quickly fizzled out, I'm not a good person to write suspense....I get to impatient to write the good stuff!

Anywho, I'm modeling my main character after a gentleman I've had a few run-ins with, so this should be good.  I've really got to work on some story development though, I've got a rough outline, but no real plot points.  I may end up winging it like I did every year except last....we'll see.
