*Peaks head in*
I was here... really I have been here for weeks... I was just writing in invisible ink is all.
You don't believe that one.
Okay first I had an emergency trip back home and then the internet crashed (we now have a new internet company) and then I got really sick and that’s just from the end of September through now. I am also a substitute teacher so my schedule is a bit on the crazy side since I plan on accomplishing lots of stuff and then get called in to a school. Even when I started to get sick I was still going to school but then I crashed hard every day when I got home from whatever school I was out. Then I spent basically 10 days sleeping trying to get even semi back to normal. I am still kind of out of it but I am here now.
Okay back to your original programming…
Once upon a time, thousands and thousands of people started a wonderful journey to reach a magical land known as craziness due to insane goals of writing 50,000 words or more in one month that also contains Thanksgiving, Black Friday (which we know is the bigger holiday) and the start of the crazy holiday season. The time is almost here again and the butterflies are a buzzing okay that might just be the medicine but hay its all good. Put down the candy or not depending on your preference (at least the chocolate that’s messy on keyboards) and get ready to TYPE….
Best piece of advice that I have is to start big and keep going big because the farther into the month you go the worst that it will be. Its like when you get that shine new car and you swear up and down that no one is eating or drinking in your new car (and with me that no one in my family is allowed to smoke in it) but slowly people are allowed to drink, eat and cause a mess. But also remember that it is about how you feel and what your goals are 10,000 can be as much of an accomplishment as 100,000 depending on you. Also throw your inter editor out the window at 11:59pm October 31 and make that creature of darkness stay gone until next year… yes I did say next year if at all possible because December is really not the best time to let it come back.
Good Luck Mississippi
