This was meant to post last week, but I missed doing it. Things are progressing now though, so here we are.
I have the winners for the blog hop, and a sneak peek at what the prize will be, come on along inside….

Justine and Gary have got to find Nigel, but a quick duck into a room off the last galley has led them into a world of glittering snow, warm fires, food in abundance and even little gifts with their names on them… Wait, there’s cookies, too!
What have they stumbled into?

Late Friday night – with many thanks to Friday Night Write Club, Virtual Writers and The Sprint Shack – I crossed the finish line for NaNoWriMo. Since then, I’ve taken a bit of a break from the novel, although I was back at it today for a few minutes.
To thank my fornit and muse, I’m making peanut butter cookies (the fornit LOVES peanut butter) and Welsh Rarebit (Awen’s Welsh. Gotta feed her traditional food!).

I’m so very far behind in my NaNoveling, that I’ve lost sight of the fun part. I decided to get some of that back by challenging the Manitoban Elsewherians (the region I’m in is Manitoba: Elsewhere) to write the total of the last four digits of their current word count, by midnight tonight.

One of the tips I was given years ago was to find a bunch of music that inspires the work in progress, create a playlist in whatever manner you have at your disposal, and listen to it while you’re writing. Thanks to Mari’s advice, I’ve done that for each project I work on, and most of them are pretty distinct in both similarities and differences.
