Naps and Novels

This last week was ridiculously exhausting.  The last entry existed because I had the foresight to write it ahead of time.  Today, however, I have merely this fill in for you.

This weekend was spent attempting to recover from the week.  In retail, the holiday set up is a huge event, and being the leader of its execution this year, I found myself ready to drop before my week had actually ended.  What time was not spent in a prone position was largely spent cleaning in the anticipation of guests.  So unfortunately, I don’t have anything geeky today.

However, in an effort to flex my writing muscles, I did find a list of short story ideas on Pinterest.  I took a little time to write the first one.  It isn't quite long enough to be considered a story, but I like how it turned out.  I think I will post these mini scenes to a different blog as they are written.

Speaking of writing, National Novel Writing Month is quickly approaching, and to kick start my book, I think I want to try the challenge.  I don’t know that I’ll be quite as devoted as I’d like to be, but I think it’ll help me get into gear.  With this in mind, I’ll probably only geek out once a week in order to not get too sidetracked from my writing goals.

Anyways, despite all the holiday fuss that seems to be taking over everywhere, I’m stoked for Halloween.  I finally decided on a costume, plans have been made, and I am determined to not open this second bag of candy until the end of the week.


Wish me luck on that one!
