November Again
R. Alex Whitlock
I have decided that I will try my hand at
National Novel Writing Month again. Four years ago I wrote Something So Perfect, which landed me in the top 10 most prolific writers of the event. What this means is that the blog will be shut down for the month of November as I unplug myself from the rest of the world (election day excepted, of course).
To be honest, I'm not sure in what will happen after that. I may start blogging again at full speed, but I haven't been blogging at full speed in months. I may extend the hiatus indefinitely. I may shut down the blog and delete its contents. I'm also going to keep an eye out for existing group blogs that might be interested in retaining my (scaled-back) services or I may try to start up another group blog (though that's unlikely). Those of you that have been reading me for a while know that I have shut down at least a couple blogs in my career and I always return in some capacity. It's not unreasonable to believe that will happen here.
Anyway, I have a week or so until that happens. I don't have any firm plans on what to post about, so I will give y'all the opportunity. If there's any issue or topic, be it political, social, or something else, that you are interested in my thoughts on, now's a good time to ask. If I get any such inquiries, I will try hard to get a post written up in time.

Observations
 
Yay Nano! I actually started my blog the first year I did Nanowrimo so blogging and writing a novel in a month can be done. (Or maybe it's just me and my craziness.) Anyways, good luck!

If I thought my novel was actually going to stay at 50,000 words or wherebouts, I might have given it a try, but I tend to run long and want to get all of it (rather than the first 50,000 words) done in the month. Unless, of course, your wordcount too ran well beyond the 50k... in which case you're just better than me :)
Good luck to you, too. It's actually your posting on it that reminded me that NaNoWriMo was coming up and I needed to make a decision one way or the other, so thanks!

Comment spam is an ongoing problems that we're trying to address. Previously we required people to create accounts and log in. I am thankful to say that is no longer the case. We're giving Captcha another try and are playing around with a text-based Q&A variant of Captcha. So bear with us as we try to figure out how to best get a handle ont he problem. Please note that any comment on a post more than 30 days old will go into the moderation queue, where I will get to it when I can which could be once a week.
