Some catching up to do...

Preparations are underway so I can participate in NaNoWriMo. I have the basic story line worked out, changed the names of a couple of characters from the original version I posted here a few months ago, and have an outline to work by. November 1st is a week from Monday, and I'm getting anxious to begin.

I asked for, and was given, the job of Oklahoma City Municipal Liaison. I basically monitor the Oklahoma message boards at nanowrimo.org and answer any questions anyone has. There's supposed to be a Municipal Liaison for Tulsa, also, but I haven't heard anything more about whether that person has been named.

Also, Blogger and NaNoWriMo have teamed up so that folks can blog their novels, if they so choose. I thought I would use this blog for that, but I decided that this blog would be for recording my progess (wordcount, etc.), and that this blog would actually be where my story will unfold. So check out Torn-- a NaNoWriMo Novel to read the ongoing story.

I'm doing this book just for fun, and as a break from Carnyville. After the New Year, I'll seriously look into getting it published, whether by traditional publisher, or a self-publishing enterprise.

And that's the update...

Now the planning begins

I have a month to get the parts of the story I think I'm going to write together in a coherent way so I can just start writing on November 1st.

I'm going to get a separate web page to post my writing once I get started. That way I'll have a backup to the copy that will be on my hard drive.
