And so it begins!!

We're back to November and another month of madcap writing!

I am going to make myself insane by trying to finish my Secret of the Mansion story AND write a fresh new story that isn't Trixie fanfic. (Yes, I'm crazy.)

I do have a lot of days in November off--including the weekends and Thanksgiving and taking 3 1/2 days of vacation--so I'm hoping that will help me accomplish this crazy quest.

To get myself pumped for writing, I figured I'd start with my Secret of the Mansion assignment. Based on what I have left of the story to tell, I need to get through about six pages of the book each day. That, of course, might be easier some days than others, depending on how many "other" scenes take place outside of Trixie's POV.

But I forged forward for the last hour and 45 minutes, and I now have Chapter 7 done. More than 6 pages, but I was pretty close to the end of the chapter, so I figured I'd just finish it.

So...Day 1...Secret of the Mansion - 2033 words!

Now a break for lunch and then hopefully, I can get to work on the first segment of my non-fanfic story.

Yay for NaNoWriMo! :)

Back later. *grin*
