National Novel Writing Month (OR: Why I Might Be Writing Nonsense in this Blog for a While)

So National Novel Writing Month has started once again, and once again I am testing my sanity (and creative abilities) to see if I can write 50,000 words in a month.

So far, I'm 1/25 of the way through, and I'm feeling pretty good. But ask me about it again in a week.

I'm working with an idea I started toying with last year at about this same time; I remember it really coming together on the ride from San Diego to San Francisco to see my cousin for Thanksgiving. I honestly haven't given it much thought since then, and 2,000 words in, it's already very different from what I originally had planned. We'll see what happens.

In the spirit of the paranormal age, I'm aiming for something with a paranormal bent, but grounded in the real world. Should be fun, right? Yeah, well we'll see.

I might need to use this as a forum to write through some ideas and philosophies, so be ready. There's a lot more rambling to come.
