Post-Thanksgiving

Hello again !

As usual, it's been much too long since my last post. Thanksgiving has come and gone, and the turkey-coma is starting to wear off. We went to my husband's cousin's house for T-Day and had a lot of fun. It was a nice day ... I enjoy hanging out and laughing with people that I'd love even if they weren't family!

I finished my writing workshop a couple of weeks ago. It was money well spent, although it wasn't quite what I was expecting. There wasn't as much feedback and writing critiques as I would have liked - but the exercises were good. They kept me writing every week.

There was one other woman in the class that was as chatty as I was and we struck up a great cyber-friendship. She and I are going to start a writing partnership and have agreed to keep each other motivated and working on our (separate) projects. We can bounce ideas off of each other and lift each other's spirits when we get discouraged.

There's a writing contest called NaNoWriMo - short for National Novel Writing Month. My new partner and I will begin our own committed month of writing December 1st. We've decided to name it LiLoWriMo ... Linda and Lori's Writing Month.
Like it?
I do!

It's going to be tough at times - writing at least two hours every day for a month no matter what - especially during December when there is so much going on. But if we can stay on track during that month, of all months, then there is hope for us yet!!

Onward and upward !!

Cheers !!
