Happy Late Thanksgiving!

And I actually finished my NaNo novel too. :o It stopped at 32k words and now I am doing a 2nd novel. I will make it to the 50k- just halfway to 100k. :)

November 15- update

So far I have written 25,000 words. And new toys- err gadgets have become available. I will post them and they should be regularly updated each time I update my word count. Competition is something I love.
Goal is 100k
Percentage I'm on.
I just like this widget. :)

Wish me luck and I hope you are having good luck on yours too. :)

Have a spooky Halloween!

Slow Fade by Casting Crowns fits as powerful music for Halloween to listen too. It is spooky at the same time to the truth of the message.

I will give links to great Halloween posts here since I should focus on handing out candy to trick-o-treaters when the time comes and homework.

The Halloween story
Happy Halloween!
Truth about witches (my favorite)

For some NaNoWriMo has started. For me it won't be for another 7 hours. I can't wait to start! Check out Nathan's post and read all the responses.

No matter what timezone you're in: have fun!

NaNo Kickoff

National Novel Writing Month is in 5 days! I have scanned in some of my sketches today and a birthday photo (August 10th) that is an OK photo. Good websites for using for my novel: creativewritingprompts.com, animal.discovery.com, plants.usda.com, and nationalgeographic.com (favorite magazine).

Tomorrow's Concert

I will be playing at the Civic center 7 p.m. tomorrow where anyon'es free to bring a jackolantern for the stage as well. The Contra-bassoon may look more like a wooden horn  but it produces a nice rich sound. It is twice larger than a normal bassoon and most likely 4-5 feet long. I think this will be one great concert to listen to. :)

October Events

On the 25th I have the Halloween concert at the Civic Center. Then the 31st is Halloween itself. My pumpkin in ceramics class looks pretty sweet. Now just needs glazed and fired. Hopefully the colors don't get muddy.Art Design and Dine is tomorrow of which I hope to attend. I am still prepping for National Novel Writing Month and determined to do it. Maybe, if I am spelling and grammar perfect, it might earn bonus points for my writing class- just a thought but no one is perfect at it.Will post later.

Harley's Third Question

Under my question/answer post which will need to post a new one since this one is getting buried here is the third topic from it. 3. What is your favorite color and what is the first thing that comes to your mind when you see that color? My favorite color is blue. In general the first thing that comes into my mind is water. A place where I could swim in without worrying about breathing and see the vast variety of the things that lurk underneath that water. There are some creatures in the water that have this kind of looks that can be quite bazaar. Everything interesting that exists is underwater. :-)
