*I'm doing a 30 day meme (ok it's taking a bit longer than that!!) read about it here.
My writing. Ok, it's embarassing to say that here, on my writing portal, but there you have it. It's probably the one thing I receive the most compliments on. That and my entertaining facbook statuses but that's just because none of my facebook friends are on Twitter and so they don't realise that that's where I get them from :)
Anyway, I mentioned in a recent post that I've always wanted to write a book. Cliche, yes, but true. It's one of those things that goes on the life list for One Day When I Have Time. Has anyone ever ever reached That Day?
Didn't think so.
And so, bravely, foolishly, excitingly, yesterday I signed up for NaNoWriMo.
I have pledged to write a novel in a month. Crazy, no?
I am really excited about it though. Truth be told, I need a bit of pressure to get my A into G and so voila. NaNoWriMo is just the thing I need.
Hold me to it, hassle me, ask me for updates, k?
PS In case you were worried that November would be a boring month for me, in addition to writing a 50 000 word novel, I'm going to be Bandless for 10 days while he's in Madagascar. Also, I will be organising a baby shower for a friend AND starting up a small charity. True story! But that's for another post :)

Thank goodness I hear you have a really cool friend coming to stay a night or 2 while The Band is away! :) SO darn impressed by the novel idea (haha hope u get that subtle wittiness of mine. no, I've never been complimented on my writing,why do u ask? :) ok, I've definitely spent too much time around u &those blimming fb status updates are clearly rubbing off on me..NNOOO! ;)
PS. Clearly my computer is too embarrassed to assign my name to my prior post. I on the other hand have no shame :-)
