First Week Into the Nano!

How are things going, you ask?  Well… they’re going, but not as fast as I would like.  It’s strange how the brain reconfigures depending on what it’s needed for, isn’t it?  I pushed to get into the ‘Con Consciousness’, then the ‘Music Mind’ (more on that later), and now I’m pushing to get into the ‘Writer’s Brain’.

Each one (for me anyway), is different enough that it’s jarring to the system.  It can take days for me to connect properly.  Which finally happened this weekend!  I made some decent headway into the story!

It felt like I was at the base of a mountain but knowing that I was close to halfway up.  Clouds obscured the path behind me, and fog dogged my every step up.  Hooray for valleys of clarity!  I could see the path for a while and progress was good.

Did I mention that I have kittens?  They just hit 7 weeks old and have decided that we are people and not just warm furniture.  The little buggers are so adorable and I can watch them do kitten things for hours.  I beheld the power of the ‘Kitten Wit’!

This turned out to be a bit rambly.  That’s enough of that.  For those struggling their way through Nano, I salute you and cheer you on from afar!
