Kicking @$$ and taking November

I am kicking my own ass because sometimes that’s what you’ve got to do to get back on track.

It’s almost an entire month since my last post.  What the frack!  For the record, I have managed to sit my skinny ass in the chair and scribble some new pieces for a few storytelling events and it’s been most rewarding; I won my last bout at Write Club Toronto‘s anniversary event.  The trophies lend a sense of balance and symmetry to my desk.

But why has squeezing in 8 minutes a day become an impossible task?

I can’t blame it on the kitchen renovations – my desk isn’t near the kitchen and most of my posts are from coffee shops!  Although I have been trying to cut back on the caffeine… Come on Huie!, they all serve tea too!  

Sometimes a little pressure is what it takes so I’m taking the challenge this November. No, not letting the hair grow in solidarity with my brethren for prostate health.
I’m taking the NaNoWriMo challenge.

November is National Novel Writing Month.

Apparently some people can write an entire novel in a month.  Don’t know what kind of novel I’ll squeeze out, if at all, but sometimes in the middle of a rut just making a commitment is all it takes.
Boom.
