I have decided to get involved in NaNoWriMo, through NaNoBlogMo. What is all this?? Well, it is an attempt to write a 50,000 word novel in one month. Start date and time, 12:01 am, Midnight Nov1. End date Midnight Nov 30. (National Novel Writing Month, NaNoWriMo, get it?)
UNDAMNFORTUNATELY, this requires the novel to be entirely written from scratch, which I found out after I already registered this particular blog site.
SO, I have to put the current A Stranger in Town story line on hold.
This is really OK, because, the original plan for this was for multiple stories to start At The Sign Of The Screaming Monkey's Head. See, this tavern will be the springboard for many interrelated yet separate stories! I stole this concept from a book of short stories I read once called Tales From the White Hart.
What this means is that I have to start a brand new story FROM SCRATCH on Nov 1. Those of you interested in Fred and Barney will have to wait. Meanwhile, the second story line will begin on November 1st.
The working title is Sylk and The Ruminantia
I hope they, the NaNoWriMo folks, will be OK with this workaround, since I already have this blog up and running.
Wish me luck.
