I signed up for Camp NaNo. And immediately stopped writing. Why is Camp the kiss of death for me? I'm hoping to have a novel idea in place by November. Which will require having linear enough thoughts to develop a plot.
One of my friends posted to facebook that she wanted to start reading The Handmaid's Tale and was starting a group where people could talk about it as they read. I expressed interest, she added me, I went out and bought the book (because I was too lazy to sort through my boxes, too scared to ask a friend I know has it, and didn't feel like renewing my license so I could get a library card to borrow it from a library). And they are much more ambitious readers than I am!
Speaking of, it's nice-ish out. I should go home, do some more slack chores (I play a four person game with three computer players and do things like load the dishwasher while the game takes its turns), and take a reading walk tonight. There's a park a few blocks away that has a trail that I think leads to the local high school.
