The WDC NanoLounge

Im like Jade. It kills me that Im not at the top of that list. I would have been had the weather not changed causing severe sinus headaches. But, Im catching up. The point is I don't beat myself up if I don't make my own daily goal of 6000 words a day. I wanted to do ten today that would have gotten me to 50k. I might make it by the end of the day, but I have to go grocery shopping and hubby is going to write so its not real likely I will make it by midnight tonight. But, I doubt i actually go to bed till I do.

Like Uncornsong, I have a very forgiving and accepting husband. He does Nano with me once a year so that he doesn't feel totally left out when my sole focus is writing. But, I don't work, unless you count homeschooling the 5 of our six kids that are still at home, gardening, taking care of the chickens and rabbits, and all the other things that go along with having a homestead.

I told him in highschool my goal was to become a published writer. He looked at me the other day and suggested that perhaps 39 should be my year for actually trying to get published instead of just writing things that I throw away cause I have no faith in their quality. Perhaps he is right about that.

But for the twenty years we have been together, he has never once begruged me my need to write or my fear of trying to get published. Wonderful Wonderful man. :) I wish everyone could be so lucky.
