NaNoWriMo!

So I decided that I am crazy recently because I am going to attempt National Novel Writing Month again this year.  What it is: You have the month of November to write 50,000 (could be more) words of a novel.  What is the reward you ask?  The fact that you have written a complete, or mostly complete novel.  Some people do go on to get published afterwords.  You also get to meet people in your area that love to write as well, leading to wonderful support for all!  It is like your own personal cheering section.  I'm quite happy to have my newish laptop that doesn't have to be plugged in 24/7 to use this time around.  Last time, doing write-ins wasn't fun because if there wasn't any plugs available, I couldn't even write.  *sighs*  But that is all better now!  *happy dance* 

I plan to keep my blog updated with my process, including a word count of how far I have gotten as well as where I am at in my novel.

Uber Excited!

I applied last month for a position at Erica's, a local craft store to teach crochet.  Well, I just got a call that they want me to come in for an interview this week!  I have to bring in some items that I have crocheted and they want to go over what they want taught crochet wise.  In other words, sounds like I am a strong candidate for the position.  Now I just have to wait for them to call me so that we can arrange the interview!  :D

Well, I have set up my own Etsy shop where items that I make are going to be up for sale.  ^^
