NaNoWriMo 2013

I'm participating.

This will be my third time as a participant. The timing was ideal on the suspense novel, and so I thought to take the plunge again.

I may be mad by the end of the month, but I shall be in very good company.

You brave woman, you. Hope you have a productive month.

::laughs::

Thank you, dearest. I welcome all the best wishes I can get. I'll need every erg of energy.

In all honesty, I think it should be fun. Today, I'm putting together a collage for my desktop. You know how I am about casting!

I see no fault with that. At least you won't have characters whose eye colour morphs as the story progresses (unless you mean them to). And eye-candy does no harm when it comes to inspiration.

I'll be MIA for a good chunk of November, but even when I don't have much access to the net, I'll be willing you on.

I will be thinking of you during the month ... it'll be a lovely break from my tippy tap typing. I hope all is well with you and Brad and your families.

::snicker::

Well, if there's morphing to be done, I hope it's because there's a reason for it. Maybe new contact lenses?

::smooch::

Both his mum and mine are having health issues. M-i-L has been in hospital for the last week and a half, having tests and getting her sodium levels up a bit. Docs think she had a couple of mild strokes without realising it at the time. She may get out today if her MRI isn't deferred again to accommodate more urgent cases and it doesn't throw up any warning flags, but that's what they said last Friday

I totally feel for you and Brad. It's challenging facing our parents' illnesses as they age.

My M-i-L still has post-stroke issues which affect her eyesight, coordination and mental acuity. And she's been incredibly diligent with all the physical therapy and monitoring her daily health. It's so very much a cautionary tale. In fact, I'm more aware of my own health in just dealing with hers.

Mum's issues are different. She's such an active sort, it's challenging to get her to take it a little easier. Frankly, I couldn't sustain her pace for more than a month!

Anyway, I'll be thinking of you and wishing you and the rest of your loved ones the best!
