I just wanted to pop in here to put up a new post, since I have been a bad non-poster person as of late. And yes, I have been tentatively doing the National Novel Writing Month, and yes, I am way behind on my word count. The reasons:
(A) Still Recovering from the Evacuation (actually, this is an excuse, not a reason—as I always point out to my students, there's a difference)
(2) That Whole "Tentatively" Thing (I don't think it's possible to only kind of do NaNoWriMo)
(iii) I'm Still Working on THE NOVEL (not only am I not starting a new work this time around, but I'm still working on a "fair" draft of the Leaf story. This is absolutely the wrong way to rack up a high word count)
(@*$&) Laziness, Fear, Self-Loathing, Doubt, and Madness (as always, but not as bad as they have been. They generally only show up on occasion now)
So there you go. I'll try to post again soonish, when I'm not running late. As I am now.

Interesting paragraph notations. Are you an English prof? :-)
Have missed hearing from you, but glad to see you haven't just been slacking. Hope all is well and you are settling back in and beginning to get the smoke smell out of your nose. It will likely take a long time for that.
Hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
