Scottish lass seeks…

I had a dream. A bit unusual really because I normally don’t remember dreams but this one had a pair of characters from a previous attempt at NaNoWriMo turning up and dutifully supplying a storyline that would have taken me over the 50K finish line (I ran out of plot/steam). Thing was it was not for 2006 but 2005. Where have these dormant characters been? Better late than never? What to do now though, dig out the documents and write it up just for the hell of it? Too late to ‘win’. Let it pass? Frustrating when you have the creativity you don’t have the time and when you have the time you don’t have the creativity. Grrr.

Interesting article The Sound Of Your Blogging Voice. Trying to decide tone for this is easy - just any old guff in ma heid and “Scottish Lass” does the translation. Disclaimer: other alter egos are available. Tony Bennett said something great in his advice to aspiring contestants in last week’s X Factor,

“Just be yourself…and you’ll be unique”

Well as the podcast says. “I should be writing”. Why? It’s November. And you know what that means. National Novel Writing Month - NaNoWriMo. Do 50,00 words in a month. Tried it last year, started OK but got struck down by a gammy arm. Also this year I’ve got central heating for the first time so I can try writing in the garret and not freeze to death.

They have a great page of Widgets and even better for the programmers Word Count API
