Day 12 & 13: Sodden Books Depress Me + Write-In with Zoey!

So yesterday was kind of a drag during the day. I had to go through more sodden books which made me wanna change my name to Waterfall because I cried. I had some books I'd loved as a kid that, once drowned in rat-poop-soup, never really will be the same again. I discovered that old English books on their constitution were somehow bound in cloth that didn't have the dye set so once it's soaked, it smears blue inky stuff all over everything. It's not all bad though, I've been gathering an ever-growing mountain of books that I don't want and once my friends pick all the good ones out, I'll be taking them to sell. Some were saved from the Flood, some were just in my loft collecting dust behind and in some boxes.

I did get to go write with one of my besties, Zoey Gomes! We chilled at her place, ate Mt. Mikes and bullshitted the evening away. We both did get something done, lol. Today, I'm hoping to get a little writing done but I'll be off tonight playing board games with the man. All I have to say is, don't you judge me! Board games aren't just for old fogeys mind you, they're actually really fun and there are a lot more cooler games out there than D&D and Monopoly, trust me. Ever played Witch's Brew? No, you say? DO IT.

Good news! I'm just about half-way there, seriously living on a prayer, to finishing NaNo's goal of 50,000 words. That's right, I'm just about at 25,000 words! Woot! Now I have visions of 80's coiffed Bon Jovi dancing around in my head with Livin' on a Prayer stuck in my head...

Oh! And I found a really good book to read that has me seriously itching to buy sequels. Hounded: The Iron Druid Chronicles by Kevin Hearne is really....very good. I stayed up till 4am reading it the other night and I rarely do that. So kudos Kevin for making me loose sleep! Your writing is superb!
