My blood is one part ink and two parts magic

That's almost cool enough to be a tattoo...

So, I am officially having only one problem with this NaNo novel: it's in the past tense, and "The Hierophant" was written in present, so everything sounds awkward to me even when it probably shouldn't. But, aside from that, it's coming along swiftly and swimmingly!

The characters are unfolding before my eyes- the purpose and plot, too. I really went into this with three ideas: "Tristan und Isolde," werewolves, and the Midnight Estates luxury development in Clarence, NY. I am dead serious when I say writing is like magic- fiction, anyway- because I think I write the best stuff when I don't know what I'm about to write. The Universe takes the reigns, and suddenly my fingers are flying and words are spilling onto the page in glorious cadence and timber...

Mmm.

I'm super excited for this novel!

And for our next President!

And for Oxford!

Yaaaaaaaay!
