Pew Pew Pew Laser Time
I wrote today for an hour with the kind laser intensity I haven't had since I finished my thesis. Got down a solid 428 words of "Light Sensitive". It's a non-genre story in the sense that all of the events that occur are grounded in our particular kind of reality, but it does contain a hell of a lot of lyncanthropy imagery. It's about money, family, and mental health. And feeling a little monstrous sometimes.
I'm not doing NaNoWriMo. I never do NaNoWriMo, because I think it's silly to try to write a novel in a month. I am, however, utilizing the time frame as a convenient arbitrary deadline for some other writing-related things I want to get done.
1) Finish a full draft of a new story, either "Light Sensitive" or "Hum".
2) Submit another story for publication.
I'm still waiting to hear back on the last pulp story I submitted for publication, but the publication in question takes 3-4 months to respond and it's only been 2. In the meantime, I'm trying to get a few new balls rolling.
