However, the novel is shaping up to pass my goal of 70K, and probably reach 80K at least. Today it is laying groundwork for a future novel-one in which I won't have to leave behind my MC after all (this is his third book) even though he dies...[Read Full Post] Thu, 10 Nov 2011 09:33:47 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/739156 I reached 25K yesterday, Monday Nov. 7. That is halfway for NaNo requirement of 50K, in less than a quarter of the time frame. But I decided in Oct. to go for 70K, and last week decided 80K would be nice. So in that delineation, I'm not at halfway yet. Still reading, of course; the new Stephen King, published today, arrived at th...[Read Full Post] Tue, 08 Nov 2011 06:43:49 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/738974 Finally OCTOBER BOOKS READ-OCTOBER 2011 1 October-: Walden, portion of Chapter 1 1 October: Jonathan Rabb, The Second Son (2011) 1 October-2 October: Sarah Pinbrough, Hidden!! 3 October: Laurie R.

BOTH novels won! I decided to finish Lee Child's "Persuader" (which btw is Jack Reacher #7) and THEN about 10:20 PM began reading Whitley Strieber's "Hybrids." As always with Mr. Strieber, the book takes an unexpected turn from the very beginning-but is nevertheless fascinating. Soon I will po...[Read Full Post] Wed, 19 Oct 2011 10:19:36 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/737373 Just got Whitley Strieber's latest, "Hybrids," from the Library-a book I've been waiting six months to read!

I've said right along, "E...[Read Full Post] Tue, 18 Oct 2011 14:30:15 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/737265 this AM, working on writing the climax scenes for [Link To Item #1800861] : [Link: 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CB17uWuBrL0'] and [Link: 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBfqjp1hQlA'] Kansas: Carry on Wayward Son (Live) and Kansas: Point of Know Return (Live) both very much apropos to these u...[Read Full Post] Tue, 04 Oct 2011 11:49:22 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/735761
