*Takes A Deep Breath*

"Novelists, we knew, had it made. They got fawned over in bookstores, and were forever being pestered for insights on their genius in newspapers and magazines.

I signed up with NaNoWriMo.org (National Novel Writing Month). I created a new novel-only blog (Visit me at....*crosses that out and wonders why Blogger doesn't have strike-through* Sorry, I decided I don't want you visiting. No reading my novel until it is all done and I have deemed it worthy of public criticism. Thanks!). I signed up with NaNoBlogMo's blog. I AM TERRIFIED. November starts in less than 8 1/2 hours and I don't even have a plot! *panics and starts to sweat* Heeeeeelp!! And I still have my lit analysis to do! I better get my butt moving. I'm so scared.
