Another novella complete - next stage.

Well, it's over. Did the National Novel Writing Month thing.

Problem was, my novel wrapped up before the wordage limit was reached. I also joined the National Blog Posting Month site - but that was really too easy. Just post a bunch of stuff in advance and spread it out over a month. Heck, I'll post 5-6 or more per day, so someone who's got over-verbose fingers like me doesn't have a challenge there.

So I missed the target by about 6K words. That's a couple of days of writing, but when it's done, you just move on, right?

If you want to check out a modern, New Age novella about the alternate realities of dreams and dream influencing, then go see http://funny-enlightenment.blogspot.com/ and knock yourself out.

Meanwhile, I'm back to my other stuff, now that this is out of my system.

(For the record, it was started on the 1st and now it's the 9th - so about 10 days, averaging nearly 5K words a day - more toward the last of it.)

Luck to us all - now I'm going to clean things up a bit and get back to my cartoons.

Cheers!

PS. Might set this up for publishing along with my 2006 NaNoWriMo novel. Yes, stay tuned, it will be published on Lulu (http://stores.lulu.com/robertworstell/).
