I’m not sure if I have a long post in me today. We’ll see.
My hope for this weekend is pretty simple. I hope I can make some progress on a story outline for NaNoWriMo. Yesterday, I came up with a pretty cool story idea. It’s so good, I’m not even sure I’m ready as a writer to do the story justice. I’m gonna try, though. I just need to do the work.
Tomorrow morning my sister and parents are visiting and we going on a short train ride. That should be a lot of fun. I’ll be sure to get pictures.
Yep, I don’t have a lot today. Maybe I’ll write more later. Have a nice weekend!
I love these old pictures… This one looks as if it might’ve coloured after.
Good luck with the outlining and have a nice weekend!
🙂
Vesper – thank you! I think they colored the picture also.
If you look at the photo really closely and way into the future, you can see me. I’m the one immigrating.
What a great photo.
Short posts are allowed, especially when you’re gearing up to write bazillions of words. Rock on.
Good luck with the story outline and have a wonderful weekend!
Yes, I second Nicky… best of luck, and yeehaw November 1!
Hey, cool! i plan on nanoing this time too. However, I’m not quite sure if I can finish it this time. I do have an outline though. But I have done this several times before and never completed. Hopefully I’ll get through it this time! Good luck! and I will buddy you!
Wishing you a wonderful time outlining your new idea! I really hope it works out for you.
mayiwrite – that is awesome. my Dad’s parents immigrated here in the early 1900’s from Greece. That really wasn’t that long ago.
Thanks Vanilla. It’s been a great weekend so far.
Gottawrite Girl – thanks!
Ello – Good luck to you. I’ll buddy you too.
Thanks Steph!
Mulberry Street way back when! It’s wonderful!
