This month is 'National Novel Writing Month', if you didn't know. If you've talked to Dave in the past few weeks I'm sure you've been asked to participate with him, as he is diligently writing one himself, to be finished by November 30th at midnigaht.

Procrastination is key here. But he's off to a flying start, keeping pace with his 1,666/day word count goal. And if you have ever had the pleasure of being around him while he's writing, you know that he does ANYTHING else, manically, to put off sitting down. Cooking is always a safe bet for him. I suspect I'll be eating very well this month.

It's only the 4th, but I suspect next week will be a little more angst-ridden than this week.

Stay tuned.
