T-Minus Three Days...

Well, as I had hoped would happen this spring, I'm finally just a few short days away from one of the biggest writing events of the year - JulNoWriMo!

I will be completing my first full rough draft of [i]Plan C[i] in 31 days in at least 50,000 additional words - a daunting overtaking, to be sure, but there's no time to finish it like the present.

I'm feeling a nervous apprehension. It is going to be a CRAZY experience, one unlike anything I've ever attempted thus far; however, I'm certain that it will grant me the needed momentum to bring this story to life.

To prepare, I've typed up a rough description of the events I plan to cover each day over the month of July. Each is very sparsely described (only about three lines to detail close to a full chapter), as I plan to leave myself the allowance to make alterations to the plot as needed - or, as NaNoWriMo's Chris Baty would put it, plenty of room for "Exuberant Imperfection."

I, of course, will do my best to keep running word count tallies (and chapters, if the numbers are available) when possible. Can't wait to see what happens next! Wish me luck!

Till next time,
