Better Sleep Through Formatting - Fast Fiction

	Fast Fiction Thursday, October 05, 2006 Better Sleep Through Formatting Every year as NaNoWriMo season begins, I get a little stressed. It gets easier and easier to be the ubermoderator for such a big community. But the one thing that I’ve noticed is a good indication of my stress levels is dreaming in October. For the past three years my dreams in October have had large portions formatted as forum posts. Seriously. The dream bits are separate posts. Not specifically text, but somehow, in that dream-way, enclosed within forum code and forum frames. The dreams are not necessarily nanowrimo-related, but just formatted as topics and threads. The dreams this year, of course, started on October 1st. Last night I had no forum dreams that I recall. Will this complacency blow up in my face? If I do not live, breathe and dream nanowrimo, will it still come together? POSTED BY Cybele AT 10:58 am Comments As long as you dream about candy or other things you enjoy, you should be fine. Since the NaNo job’s getting easier, my guess is you’re not thinking about it as much. Comment by Russ on 10/06/06 at 8:29 am First, thanks for being our ‘Momerator”. I am trying unsuccessfully to read only a bit of your blog - but so far no luck I may have to dedicate today to this, sigh. Candy? Currently I am hooked on Almond Joys, Peanut Butter Bars, and Zagnuts. Throw in Parmesan Asiago Crackers from Target and I am set for November.SO far I have yet to see a whale - I missed the last tour boat by one day! I am a transplant from Oklahoma so the ocean and all its wonders fascinate me. Especially the jelly fish room at the Aquarium of the Pacific. I have no plot this year - except the certainty that I will write what I love - not just a novel that I feel will sell, smile. I am disabled and have no car so I cannot join in the local group. The ‘Geezers’ have become my group. Happy writing and thanks to you and everyone with NaNoWriMo! Joyce Comment by Joyce Wakefield on 10/09/06 at 8:49 am Oh my, gummi brains. Yummers! My inner candy zombie is getting excited… not sure I can use that for my NaNoNovel, but where there’s a will there’s a way!

Sometimes it's about whalewatching. You know, and then there's other stuff.
