It’s been awhile, friends. Eight months, to be exact.
What’s up?
Me? I’m still bobbing and weaving around The Sucker Punches to the very best of my capabilities. It’s been a long eight months…a long stinkin’ year…to put it succinctly.
It’ll be OK one of these days.
But that’s not why I’m writing today. Nosirree.
I’m writing to tell you that I’ve been writing.
*cue raising of eyebrows and scratching of heads and questioning of sanity*
To clarify: I’m writing a book.
Yup. I’ve been at it since the first of November, when I took it upon myself to get a little gumption and join the ranks of the WriMos.
Do you know them? They’re a fabulous bunch of folks like me who have the goal of hammering out a draft for a novel…50,000 words’ worth…during the month of November.
That’s nuts, right? Right?
Yeah. Well, so am I, apparently. So it all works out quite nicely.
What will my book be about? I’m glad you asked. Click here to be magically transported my NaNoWriMo page, where you can view a synopsis and an excerpt from my book, which is aptly titled So Here’s the Thing.
And why am I telling you this? Because I have a tendency to overshare.
And also because, while I’m writing, I’m raising money for the nonprofit that runs NaNoWriMo. They’re all about promoting literacy worldwide. At the risk of tooting my own horn, I’m doing quite well in my donation garnering efforts. Click here for verification of that claim. In essence, I’m the second leading fundraiser behind some chick whose family is throwing thousands of dollars toward her cause.
Whatever.
I’m also telling you this because I’m running a giveaway this week! What am I giving away, you ask?
So glad you did.
It’s this.
