Some years back the perpetually disgruntled people were griping about authors posting work on their blogs (for some reason this was offensive to the Blog Police; don't ask me why), so I set up the stories blog as a place to post excerpts. I've also used it for my NaNoWriMo notes when I've participated in the past. I'll put up links in November, but if you want to check out the archives now the URL is http://pbwstories.blogspot.com/the authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03220786472896283714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-14070480622604021942012-10-06T05:45:33.028-04:002012-10-06T05:45:33.028-04:00Are you NaNo'ing too this year, lady?Are you NaNo'ing too this year, lady?the authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03220786472896283714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-53010569036984075832012-10-06T05:45:12.393-04:002012-10-06T05:45:12.393-04:00We're going to have a lot of fun this time, I ...We're going to have a lot of fun this time, I think. the authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03220786472896283714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-11431564746952138762012-10-06T05:44:38.746-04:002012-10-06T05:44:38.746-04:00My pleasure.

Have I been missing the stories blog, or is this something new you're creating? If the former (and I suppose the latter too :) ), can you post the link? Thanks! I'm not a writer, but I hugely admire those who do NaNoWriMo, and will be clapping wildly from the sidelines.Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04508883566813246491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-87629077847724296222012-10-05T17:55:35.309-04:002012-10-05T17:55:35.309-04:00Yay!

I'm a true pantser, but this year I thought I would listen to you for a change and try preparation. I always do my research on the facts and figures, but rarely get so involved with character history beforehand...that usually comes as I write.<br /><br />Buy funny thing. It's working! As I come up with the backstories, it triggers other ideas that bring out plot details. Go figure.<br /><br />Couple of years ago when you did NaNo, I used to check your word count every day and try to match it. I'm pretty sure my secret competition with you is how I got through that year.terleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13953328625206810683noreply@blogger.com
