Or is that NaNoGoGo and IndieWriMo?
So confused…
It’s been quite a rough week, getting too little sleep and not enough butt-in-chair time for my NaNoWriMo.
Why? I am SO glad you asked. I’ve gone and done the stupid (or perhaps just the ill-advised) and decided that I’m going to not only NaNo myself into an early grave, but also try and crowdfund a new author anthology in the same month. What the HELL was I thinking? *you weren’t* SHUT UP, I know!
Not one to shrink from a challenge, I boldly went where angels fear to tread on the wings of love. Or something like that. GAWD my eyes feel like they have sand in them, but what did I do tonight? Futzed with a website I don’t need to have ready for THREE MONTHS. I’m not gonna have anything ready to sell until late January, but I HAD to get the fonts on the website just right. TONIGHT, not eight weeks from now.
Moral? Prioritize!
The countdown timer I put up on TAFpub.com tells me I have a little over 26 days until the Indiegogo campaign is over (but I think its messed up). So that means I have 24 days for NaNo which means I have to crank out 2100 words a day on a story I am only 1000 words into. I’ll have to re-write those as well, because I had an epiphany about NOT going back in time TWICE in one story through a flashback-within-a-flashback. Sounded like a good idea…for about 10 minutes. Then I realized it was “Inception” and said ‘eff it’.
So I’ll just play it out as a trilogy, making NaNo the first installment. I’ll tell you what it’s about when I get it all figured out. Not quite sure just how Lovecraftian I’m gonna get, ‘cuz it’s sure heading that way in the fevered little space behind my oh, so puffy eyes.
Yeah… the IndieGoGo campaign is at http://bit.ly/1aVVybo. If you would be so kind as to tell everyone you know about it 3 times a day for the next 25 days. LOL J/K… I mean 5 times a day *wink, wink*.
No, seriously, anything to spread the word without being a spammy jerk about it.
How do I feel about all this? Sometimes I feel like the Kid in the clip below, sometimes I feel like the gung-ho iguana. You can stop watching after 40 seconds, that’s all it will take.
Be safe and be well.
