It starts.

That single event that can bring me to my knees and reduce me to a raging, homicidal wreck.
That wonderful, terrible exercise in creativity, in self control, in timing one self and pacing one self to do something many people wouldn’t attempt.

It starts.

NaNoWriMo.

I’ve done NaNoWriMo since 2005. My history with it, of course, isn’t as nice as I’d like it to be.

05 led to crashing, burning, and swearing I’d never write again.
06 led to a mild caffeine addiction brought on by energy drinks and no sleeping. But that one was a win.
o7 was canceled on account of Basic Training, 08 canceled on account of Cocytus.

This year I, GWT, will write a 50K word, 175+ word novel all in the comfy comfiness of Afghanistan.

I’ll be posting a status report each day while the project, The Diabolical Symbiote of Eisenkind, can be found here on the blog, constantly updated.

Wish me luck in my decent into insanity, folks.
