I reached a point in my NaNoWriMo piece tonight where a decision has to be made about what something is going to be, but the counter had already rolled. So, with a cut and paste and a simple stroke of the enter key, suddenly the wild folks over at the OLL were cheering and applauding and I had all kinds of winner certificates and badges and links and other hoopla and swag.
I immediately put on my 2012 winner’s shirt, which I’d ordered in a crazy moment and spent a few weeks worrying about. I tried to convince myself that being short, the WINNER part at the bottom would always be below my waistline… Hey, whatever motivation it takes to get things going again, right? Right.
What am I doing to celebrate. First up: pour a big glass of wine. Next: check the clothes in the dryer to see if they need more time. Then? Try to figure out what the heck is going to wrap up this part of the story so they can all live happily ever after, at least until the next adventure.
