Attention, all writers that hang out here at Chez Yarnagogo!
I'm going to be doing a live webinar with the NaNoWriMo people (Chris Baty, Grant Faulkner, and Tavia Stewart-Streit) next Tuesday, and you can play along! You can ask questions! You can stand on your head (we'll be able to seeeee you!).
And don't worry if you're not a Wrimo — we'll be talking not so much about NaNoWriMo (which is the insane fun of writing a novel in a month) as much as HOW TO GET YOUR WRITING DONE. In particular, what are the different ways of gearing up to writing, and then how to keep doing it. Are you a planner like me? Or do you fly by the seat of your pants? (Also called "discovery writing") Or do you just stare at the screen and go, "awhp?"
I wrote about the webinar over at their site, and I really hope you'll consider joining us (you'll get a recording if you can't be there with us on Tuesday). It'll be 90 minutes of goofy good stuff, with LOTS of useful information. And it would be fun to hang out. (Don't tell them, but I'm planning to knit during the session. It sure would be nice to have a few others doing the same in the audience.)
Also:
Dear Fairy Godmother,
The Night of Writing Dangerously is coming up. YOU DON'T HAVE TO SEND ME AND MY SISTER AGAIN. You really don't. We don't expect you to.
But if you want to, I'll wear fairy wings that night in your honor.
love,
Rachael
(who, two hours after posting this, now knows she'll be wearing wings to the Ball. Thank you, darling fairy godmother. love love love.)

Yay! Hope you are feeling more like your usual self now. Are you back at work yet? Will have to check NaNoWriMo website – I joined last year but was not properly organized so will be better organized this year. Will definitely check out the Webinar if I can. Hope this is not a stupid question, but what time and time zone is the webinar? Best to you and Lala and the four-footeds.

Congrats that your fairy godmother came through for you again. I’ve put out word that I would love to go, but so far no one has stepped up. And I even have fairy wings that I could wear…
