I'm enjoying my writing again, and hopefully that continues unabated. I may actually finish this thing. <BR/><BR/>I'm beginning to doubt the efficacy of the "talk Tom out of it" plan. <BR/><BR/>Verification Word: whnobhph, which I think is the sound Ambush Bug makes when he trips and falls in a mud puddle.Tom Fosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13796424725228769265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13848504.post-1162317392424167242006-10-31T11:56:00.000-06:002006-10-31T11:56:00.000-06:00Does talking you out of it include saying:If you d...Does talking you out of it include saying:<BR/><BR/>If you do NaNoWriMo there's less time for porn?<BR/><BR/>Cause if it does, then I put forth my argument.<BR/><BR/>There's also anxiety when people ask you every day how many words you have.

Our hero runs into a number of other-than-human characters that helped add colour to the proceedings. But unlike a JMS book, he doesn't fallen in love with anyone outside his own species.Seth T.

I started writing a tragicomic, Vonnegut-esque novel called <I>The Last Trump</I> about this guy who wakes up one day from a nap to find that the world's ended, that the last trump has sounded, and everyone but him has gone to either heaven or hell. But God forgot about him and, er, he got left behind. It wasn't a huge hit with those who read my drafts and I realized I should probably just sit on it - 'cause publishing it would be more trouble to my life than it would be worth. So good luck to you!Seth T. Hahnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13235549726332018442noreply@blogger.com
