The content of the novel is mired in sex. While this seems to be good for the word count, and possibly the relationship between Natalie and Gary, I’d really like to get on to the rest of the plot.

My wordcount is almost back to normal. I did over 8,000 words today, which I’m hoping to do again on Saturday and Sunday (which will pretty much bring me up to 50K, but I fear that I won’t have the actual plot I’m hoping for ... there’s always that not-mentioned-yet asteroid careening towards Los Angeles that could come into play).

  1. I was planning more sex for my novel.  But somehow it got lost among the sentient web servers and fraudulent accounting. 

    That might be a good thing, though.  Now I won’t be so embarrassed when my mom reads it.

During November it's all about me writing a novel. Sometimes it's about whalewatching. You know, and then there's other stuff.
