Camp Day 18

Hi! Grrrrrr This story pissed me off. Not being able to write at all pissed me off. However, my brain is working on the vlog I wish to start. So I’m going to do that. April is NOT a good month for braining for me. The competitions and the changes in weather really screw … Continue reading Camp Day 18

Camp Day 13

Good afternoon! This month is very difficult for writing for me but I’m a little bit ahead of schedule. The stats on campnanowrimo.org say I have to write 1458 words a day to hit 50k on the 30th. Technically, that’s ahead (it takes 1667 from day 1 to day 30) but to me … Continue reading Camp Day 13

Camp Day 11

Good evening! I know it’s been a couple days since I posted last. It’s taken me far too long to write Ida. The foggy, heavy head is a bitch. Ida is erotic horror, which means that if you are under the age of majority in your place of residence you need to sit this one … Continue reading Camp Day 11

April Camp Day 8

Welcome to Hector’s little hell hole, people! It took me two days two write this and, frankly, The Boyfriend is a little surprised that I managed to write at all today. I have had a fair number of public appearances in the last couple of days – shopping, therapy, my daughter’s dance competition – and … Continue reading April Camp Day8

April Camp Day 7

Good morning! I finally managed to finish George early this morning. I was going to try for it last night after I got home but after therapy (my final session!) and shots and Walmart, I was… Well, frankly, stupid. MCS sucks, folks. And when you add in lidocaine shots my brain turns to mush. So, … Continue reading April Camp Day7

April Camp Day 6

Good morning! Fanny is already done! It was like pulling teeth to get these 377 words. Took way longer than it should have but Fanny insisted on being a bloody poem. Well, not abloody but I figured it was a better word than fucking. More polite, yes? Until I blew it right there. See, she … Continue reading April Camp Day6

April Camp Day 5

Wow! Two posts in the same day! I was determined to get caught up while I could reasonably see. (As to that: I have been having more migraines than usual. They almost all seem triggered by light – and those that aren’t are triggered by changes in the weather. It sucks. I have painful eyes, … Continue reading April Camp Day5

April Camp Day 4

Good morning! Yes, I realize it’s the fifth and not the fourth of April but I was having severe migraines yesterday and couldn’t see worth a damn to write. So here is yesterday’s offering (and I apologize for the title, really). It is a long short story and takes a bit to get to … Continue reading April Camp Day4

April Camp Day 3

Good morning! Today’s story is Clara. The story took quite a different turn than the way I expected it to go. I expected that she’d do some channeling and the spirit she was channeling would take her and hold her prisoner and that the story would be about her confinement. Nope. I’m scratching my … Continue reading April Camp Day3

April Camp, Day 2

Good afternoon! It’s time for the next installment of the Edward Gorey inspired CampNaNo Now, even though today’s writing has reached a total of 5,509 (that’s 3,398 just today), you’re only getting part of that. I finished Basil right on the minimum word count and decided to keep going. So I decided to start … Continue reading April Camp, Day2
