Is this week a little on the crazy side for everyone? With the holidays coming up, it seems like time has truncated itself somewhat and it is becoming more and more difficult to fit everything in. Rather like when we go shopping in our Mini. I am still on track with my work, and the book is now sitting at about 103,000 words - definitely need to cut it down during edits in December! How are you doing? Are things on hold this week while you spend time with family?
In other news, LOML and I will be celebrating Our First Thanksgiving this week! I feel like an illustrated children's book is in the works - Kiwis at Thanksgiving. Or something.

Have a happy Thanksgiving!
Oh you are so right when you say that everything is a bundle of crazy at the moment... I'm simmering just below boiling point at the moment at the moment! This year just needs to put on the brakes!
We don't do Thanksgiving over here in Holland (though it sounds like a good holiday!), but we have our own special Dutch holiday of Sinterklaas coming up (check wikipedia ;-). It usually involves a lot of work (buying presents, making something creative to put them in (DIY skills come in handy here) and writing poems), but I'm not celebrating this year...
As to Nanowrimo, I actually had a difficult week 3, but am now right back on schedule after a lot of typing on Monday. And am now sure that I'm gonna make it to 50,000 which makes me extremely happy!
Hi Andrea,
I have fallen completely off the wagon, am all dusty and grimy, the wagon having sped off without me. But another shall come along and I will jump right back on again...problem is that I don't know how far away that second wagon is.
Love,
Mervat
i've figured it out. i love vintage, i just wasn't looking in the right places! i was inspired by gauzy florals at forever 21 so i started trawling etsy... lo and behold, I am a 70s girl at heart. i knew i was born in the wrong era! i thought of you immediately :)
