NaNoWriMo Continues

NaNoWriMo Continues

Writing is going well this year. I’ve got some truck-sized plot holes to deal with, but I’m tweaking the outline as I go and plugging away at the word count.

Last weekend’s NaNoThon activities helped me catch up and make some solid progress.

It’s funny how the mind works. I can easily ignore the environment around me, but when I sit down to write all I can think about is how dusty the tv is, and I notice how long it’s been since I vacuumed or loaded the dishwasher.

Fine. As long as I get my word count done today, I can dust and vacuum and clean as much as I like.

I’m close to the dreaded 30k word mark. On the plus side, I’m also heading into an action packed part of my outline.

Time for me to get back to writing.

Enjoy!

The plugin adds several Pelican commands to the command palette creating shortcuts for article creation and adding tags.

The best, and for me, the most useful part is the tag insert feature. It pulls all the tags from the site content and makes an easy to search and use list.

My Big Ass Gay Pity Party

My Big Ass Gay Pity Party

I had a rough day yesterday. I let myself go to a dark place and the resulting big ass pity party wasn’t pretty.

The trigger is always something trivial or on the surface silly. In this case, a distant semi-relative posted about their engagement on that awful so-called social media site, Facebook. I threw in my congrats because that’s what you do. Of course the little green jealousy monster started whispering in my ear. Everything is so perfect for them…health, youth, love of family and friends…why them?
