With eleven hours and nine minutes to spare, I completed the first draft of my novel for National Novel Writing Month, writing the last sections while recovering from swine flu. I have many drafts ahead of me, but for now I am just enjoying the pleasure of accomplishing the goal I set at the beginning of month, to write 50,000 words in thirty days. I’d like to thank The Office of Letters and Light for sponsoring this wonderful project and all those who supported me on facebook as I made my slow but steady progress towards my goal.

Quote of the Moment:
“You know lots of criticism is written by characters who are very academic and think it is a sign you are worthless if you make jokes or kid or even clown. I wouldn't kid Our Lord if he was on the cross. But I would attempt a joke with him if I ran into him chasing the money changers out of the temple.”

Bravo!!!!! This was NOT slow and steady progress – it was fast and amazing progress. And with swine flu, too – and without even expanding your contractions?
Love, your proud sister
