IT’S NANOWRIMO TIME!…YAY!

I just decided for sure over the last couple of days to participate in NaNoWriMo again this year.  This is my 5th year–I can’t believe it’s been that long.  I’ll be flying by the seat of my pants this year because I just thought of my book title today and I don’t really have a plot to speak of yet.  Oh well, that will be the challenge of it, I suppose.  My book is titled Duplicity Redux and the story will be centered on a college campus.  My main character will be a man–it should be interesting to try to inhabit the male psyche. I’m not sure what genre the book will be–mainstream or literary I suppose.  I’ll know more about it as I begin writing it (I hope!)

This is going to be an extremely busy month for me at work so I’ll just have to pray that I have the time, strength, energy, and will to devote myself to this book like I want to.  To any fellow NaNoWriMo’er’s out there who may read this, good luck, happy writing, and see you at the finish line! 

Here is my book jacket.  I like to draw my own illustrations, but I didn’t have the time or inspiration this year, so below is what I came up with.  I think maybe the arrow should have been pointing the other way?

My NaNoWriMo Novel 2010--Duplicity Redux

THE FUTURE FASHION QUEEN? LOL

I don’t usually look at fashion magazines and the like, but this week I decided to buy one to read/look at while I was walking on the treadmill. I can’t believe how skinny everyone in Vogue is–everytime I want to eat, I’m going to look at Vogue and that will probably take my appetite away.  I’m pretty sure all of those models are too skinny, but golly gee, I’d sure like to be that skinny just once!  It makes me want to go out and buy some new shoes or something and I’m not even a shoe person.
