50,126 Words - NaNoWriMo Winner....

You may have wondered where I have been?

Busy, as always - and add to that the NaNoWriMo writing fest. November is National Novel Writing Month and I have been participating, working on a novel with the working title "Seems Perfect to Me."

I have crossed the word count finish line (50,000 words) but I am still writing.

So much so that poems like this are springing from me:

What happens when I write for a long time...

So Poem
 
Is it an accident –

that "Sole" as in only
and "Soul" as in Spirit
and "Sole" as in the part
of my body which most
often connects with the Earth

All sound the same?

= + = + 

When I write a lot, I suddenly  write contemplative poetry...

reminds me of Kerouac who wrote his frist draft of On the Road in just a week. The guy could type like a hurricane. I've only met one other person who could type 200 words/minute... he teaches history at CSUB... amazing.

Once you have a draft, then comes the endless revision. And after the endless revision comes the question: "How do I sell this damn thing?"
