I was going to call it the ‘Anti-NaNo Zone’ but since I’m not actually against NaNoWriMo, that didn’t seem quite accurate.

So let me clarify. And keep in mind, I’m typing this all with spider rings on my hands. I have an orange one on each pinky some purple ones on the other fingers. They don’t fit all the way on my hand because they’re plastic Halloween spiders made for kids. But that hasn’t stopped me from putting them on my fingers and yes, it does make touch-typing a bit of an obsticle. But I’m leaving them there because work is over in two hours, and it helps remind me that today is Friday (TLIF!) and kind of a silly happy day. But you won’t see this until at least Sunday, because that’s when I’m going to set it to auto-post. (sets scheduler).

Clarification, right. I (like most of you prolly) read a lot of other writer and literary agent blogs. They’re all smeared with advice and hype and all sorts of great info about NaNo. And I appreciate that because it’s kept me hyped. In fact, I’m more than ready on Monday morning to start writing my fantastic tale of a hero and his journey through the millenia, his run-ins with Lucifer, Loki, and Zeus, and the women he loves and loses.

And for the next month, I suspect that a lot of people will continue to blog about these things. Also good – once again motivation.

I will not. I pledge here and now (unless I forget and slip-up which is always possible with me), that for the next thirty days I will not blog here about the writing process.

Think…Aesop’s Fables without the moral at the end. So if you get burned out throughout the month, or just need a break or a temporary way to forget November is about insanity, stop by and read the ramblings.

How do you cleanse your brain when it gets too overloaded with writing stuff?
