The Self-Proclaimed Gods of Bizarre Month Labels have generously granted November yet another excessive tradition, which may or may not be lost and forgotten as of next year. As it has been presented to me, November is "novel month", wherein the ubiquitous masses have been challenged to write a "novel", known to consist of an average of 90,000 words. Come writers, gather amateurs, collect thy crayons children of all ages, for it is time to write, and write we must!
... Before I get ahead of myself, dear reader, I will shamelessly break the fourth wall to set this epic dream on pause whilst I ready myself for my personal compromise to the early stages of "the American dream." (Hey, something's gotta pay the bills.) But fear not! I've already been starting some short creative pieces and brainstorms that can and will be posted in this blog. Were I to guess, I'd say that the reader will find no substance for a novel here, but rather, brief glimpses of whimsical writing. (I might optimistically maintain the goal of 90,000 words just for the fun of it, but we'll see what I can do with such limited time.)
Until next time!
