What has become of this?
I feel it should be made public that this is unlikely to be the nanowrimo for 2011, but may well prove to resurrect itself and form something for 2012, or something in between – something like extremely local novella writing year project? What would that make it… ExLoNoWriPro…. has about as much cachet as NaNoWriMo I think!

In progress - Enter the dragon
She had to get rid of the smell, that was how it began, or so it seemed to her. Amelia was more than a little sensitive and it was often commented on, what was not commented on so often, because it could not be seen ,was the amount of extra process that was going on whilst she was managing this sensitivity.

and so it came to pass there was no rush. It had been long enough of the mindless urge to mount up words beyond number at a pace that was punishing.

And so it came to pass that I did not start at the beginning! This is something that has come up and will need management, and I can not the stuff here and in any other “January 2012” posts!
It’s interesting and I wonder if it varies from one to another of one’s writing experiences, when I have heard authors interviewed it always seems they have a “strategy” probably a learnt one, and start with an outline, or at the beginning, or with a character… But I am not sure I have any of that and I am equally sure the problems are very variable, for example last time in 2008 the problem was a lot more about the ENDING than the BEGINNING!

Do you remember how you never really wanted to go to see your mother? How you had to work yourself up to do it….
Well multiple that by a very great deal….
And that is what it is like for me – but with an even more enormous guilt trip for the withholding of my daughter from you – allegedly.
Oh yeah – and I want the twenty five quid back you used to buy the flowers for YOUR mothers grave – you killed my mother you BITCH!
