I'm the mother of three children and a dog. The children are 16, 14, and 12, and the dog is seven. I write, read, crochet, play stupid computer games. I've been writing since I was around 13, and I love it. Even when I don't love it, I do. I also Bullet Journal, do Miracle Morning, GTD, and 12 Week Year. At the moment, the only successful thing I do is the Bullet Journal. Oh, and I'm on Habitica, which is fun and I love it. This is my second year doing getyourwordsout and that's been a blast, too. Although I don't think I'm going to actually make my goal this time. Well... next year is a year too!
2. What are your fave books?
My go-to when I'm lost and need a good escape are Seanan McGuire's Newsflesh books (Feed, Deadline, Blackout), and The Curse of Chalion by Lois McMaster Bujold. I'm currently reading a series about a small town called Miller's Kill, which is delightful (and I'm about to reach the end. *Sob*).
3. Have you ever done NaNo before?
I have. this is my 17th year, and I've won all but one. I have never done it without kids at home. One year I got insane, and I wrote two novels. To this day, I have no idea how I did it (although one of my most popular fanfics came out of that, so who knows).
4. What's your project looking like? What kind of support do you want/need?
I don't know what I'm going to do yet. I have several projects in the works right now, but nothing that I want to drop them all for. I have a couple of challenges I could work on, but those are shorter and I'd like to have one long story this time.
As for support, I need accountability. I know it's easier during Nano, but it helps there, too.
5. Anything else you wanna share!
Actually, I think I've overshared. Sorry. Currently watching ATEEZ's comeback with Wonderland, waiting to see if they'll drop an MV for Sunrise, and wondering if I'll get something from them that will spark a 50k word story. One can hope!
