It’s hard to believe that we are only one month away from NaNoWriMo!!
For those of you who have never heard of it- National Novel Writing Month is a fun, seat-of-your-pants approach to novel writing. Participants begin writing November 1. The goal is to write a 175-page (50,000-word) novel by midnight, November 30. I’m thinking of pulling out last year’s sketchy outline and attempting a rebirth. But then again, I wouldn’t mind starting a clean slate and writing a memoir of sorts. I have one month to plan!
In interesting bank news, the new $50 bill comes out tomorrow. (A new $100 bill is scheduled to be released soon as well) It’s exceptionally patriotic with a little bit of stars and stripes in the background. Here’s a link if you want to know more. Also, please don’t wear sunglasses into a bank. There is the Creep Factor to consider. But I would be so pleased if SC would introduce a “No Hats, No Hoods, No Sunglasses” law. Fuss.
The walk for Curing Diabetes is on November 9 this year. It’s being held in the glorious downtown area and I’ve been “peer pressured” into joining. I get a free t-shirt. Wheee. But, I’d much rather be at the Starflyer 59 concert in New York.
