Happy Tuesday & November Everybody,
Wow! It's November ALREADY? What happened to October? I blinked and it was gone (does this mean I need to stop blinking, because that's really hard to do).
There is a lot going on lately--getting things out to those who requested them and playing around with other novel ideas (I still have to outline one that's been in my head for about a year, and I haven't been able to get it out on paper the way I'd like. The idea is good, the title is probably my best title idea yet and a lot of people like the story idea and title; it's just the execution that's lacking at the moment, but I intend to remedy that).
I'm also trying to catch up on my reading, so that's been another thing. I grab anywhere between 2-10 pages here and there.
I've learned I'm both a "pantser" and a "plotter"--I have to have a decent idea of what I'm doing and where I'm going, but enough room in that plan to let whatever inspiration hits me carry me.
I hope everyone had a safe and Happy Halloween. The Write By Bethany household celebrated with relatives and it went off pretty well. We're now gearing up for Thanksgiving and Christmas (although I started my Christmas shopping next month--yes, I start early. I come from a BIG family and you got to plan ahead LOL).
Did anyone dress up for Halloween? I didn't dress up. I know, total party pooper--but I did help out with a Halloween Carnival, so I wasn't completely a stick in the mud.
Have A Tantalizing Tuesday!

Also, a relative of mine is doing a really cool thing called Movember. You can read all about it on their website. But I'm extremely proud of my relative for doing this.
A little birdie--okay it was Will Graham emailed me--said he's got a new novel out called PRODROMOS (prequel to Spider's Dance) you can find it on Amazon Kindle and Barnes & Noble Nook.

I can't believe Halloween came and went. We had one trick or treater come to the door and I had a ton of candy ready to go. I guess people stay away from apartments. That's kind of why I can't wait to have a house. Halloween is my holiday.
Movember...I thought that was a typo for a minute and then I went to the site. Yeah, very cool.
Thanks and also thank you for dropping by :-)
Yeah, I don't think I'll quit blinking any time soon LOL
My parents' house didn't get a lot of Trick or Treaters at first, then a whole slew of them near the end. They actually only had a little bit of candy left when they decided to close down for the night.
Yep, Movember. I haven't really looked at the site, but my relative talked about it and it sounded really good.
Thank you for dropping by :-)
I'll head off to Movember.
Sounds cool! The blouse sounds pretty. You are one crafty woman--sewing and painting your house. So much creativity! Best wishes on all your projects and thank you for dropping by :-)
Wow, Maine? I've never been to Maine (although I've been a lot of places on the East Coast). Yes, do check out Movember. It's really cool what they're doing. Thank you so much for dropping by :-)
