Gearing Up for NaNovember

October 31, 2011

It’s almost November. I’m so excited I can hardly contain myself. No, really, I’m not being sarcastic here!

Why do I get excited about November? For starters, my “scheduled” year ends after the U.S. National Arabian Horse Show at the end of October, and doesn’t pick up again until mid-December. July had five weekends in it this year, which apparently only happens once every 300 years, and I said it STILL wasn’t enough. This is like summer vacation all over again.

But mainly, it’s the NaNoWriMo-ing that gets me excited. I participated last year (as a “rebel”, a PC term for those who participate but don’t exactly follow the rules), and will do the same again this year.

This is why I love November. It’s cold and miserable outside, the horses are furry and just want to eat, nobody in their right mind is worried about Christmas, and I get to selfishly indulge in NaNo, or some version thereoff. YAY!!

To celebrate this year (and because my poor, poor blog hasn’t seen a post during all of October), I’m doing a Post A Day during November. Some of it will be NaNo related goodies, some of it will be fun things I’ve been bookmarking all summer, some will be inspired by my trip to the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa, and the rest… well I guess we’ll just find out.

Cheers!

PS – (If anyone wonders what I was up to during October, you can check out the U.S. Nationals photo gallery on the Canadian Arabian Facebook page).

Good luck with NaNoWriMo! I will try that out one of these years… At the moment, I’m too swamped to even think about it.
