Word Count: 3421 for a total of 47791 Today’s points didn’t go as planned. Actually it was all quite messy and I wish I could take them back but I can’t. I don’t think I planned these points out well…

i was adopted. i was born into identity. i have no idea where i came from historically or ethnically. Therefore, i am a culture of myself. All the activities and chapters in my life created who i am today. i am free to select those i deem worthy of being in my family. i do not have to abide by longstanding rules or regulations. i do not have to follow in the footsteps of some long dead relative. i am a culture of myself. What i do, the things i believe in, and the rituals i make... build my identity.
i am connected to nothing at all, and deeply connected to everything around me.
i came from the earth. i am a true child of nature and spirituality. This is my gift.
Day Fifteen, NaNoWriMo 08
Word Count: 3365 for a total of 44370 Getting down to the wire, I’m almost finished! Today I wrote the first confrontation between Autumn and Inca. I originally planned that it was going to be some sort of physical duel,…
Day Fourteen, NaNoWriMo 08
Word Count: 3261 for a total of 41005 I’m still on track with the story. I quickly got them over to the Pyramid and instead of having them travel in some labyrinth maze, my mind decided to put the information…
Day Thirteen, NaNoWriMo 08
Word Count: 3600 for a total of 37744 Yay! Go me! I’m past 35K and still going. Still writing this blasted thing by hand even. I’ve got Autumn, Chad, and Andrews up in a plane now. They’re en route to…
Day Twelve, NaNoWriMo 08
Word Count: 3604 for a total of 34144 I had to check my math twice tonight. It seems rather odd that those 3604 words jumped me that far up the chain. I had planned on writing another meeting and then…
Day Eleven, NaNoWriMo 08
Word Count: 3336 for a total of 30540 The words blur together. I start out really strong and end less than strong. At least that is what writing by hand after ten days feels like to me. I moved the…

I’ve been taking a “Publishing and Marketing Your Book” class, put on by my friend Taylor Ellwood. I’ve been learning quite a bit; many of the tips… so simple yet were nothing I thought about applying to my own marketing.…
Day Ten, NaNoWriMo 08
Word Count: 3534 for a total of 27204 I have no idea how I managed to write that many words. I’m still doing 10 pages (front and back) a day. But somehow, I’m able to squeeze more and more words.…
Day Eight and Nine, NaNoWriMo 08
Day Nine Word Count: 2990 for a total of 23670 Today picked up a bit. I switched gears and went back to our ranty daemon antagonist, Inca. Sort of told the story about how he got knocked down to our…
Day Seven, NaNoWriMo 08
Word Count: 2862 for a total of 17680 I planned on introducing the lifebox today. And I did do that today in a roundabout way. I didn’t get to the part where she finds it but I did sort of…
