Back in the Saddle Again

I'm back on the blogspot after a fall of some adventures. The most fun and adventurous would have to be Nanowrimo. Oh yes. The Nano. I'm a wrimo baby. I am just itching for Nanoedmo and Script Frenzy. Someday when I remember my password I will go get my winner widget and post it on here.

I had the most fun in years, I think, trying to write a novel in a month. I've always known that I work well riding my train of thought (because I don't want to try to spell stream of consc. right now.) These last five years or so I clogged up the arteries of my writing though by plotting, planning, and brainstorming because that is what all the books on writing tell you to do. As writing is a craft that can be learned and improved I wanted to try to learn and improve. This November was freeing and cleansing to put a pen to paper and just let it come out. It was a lot like reading a book; I couldn't wait to sit down and see what was going to happen next.

But that all said and done...well, word count met if not all the way done...I owe anyone who stumbles here a little fundamentalist weirdness, wouldn't you say?

So here's a tid bit. I believe in fire breathing dragons. Oh yes. I think most likely Saint George really slayed one. Oh, well, yeah, I may be going out on a limb on that one as I haven't read anything about said Saint. But it is possible as I believe that they existed and existed at the same time as man.

We also believe that The Lost World is an accurate depiction of life hidden deep in the unexplored jungles of South American. Without the half evolved people, of course.

We also consider things like the half truths found in The Lost World to be God's way of showing that he is in complete control, even of people who do not want to recognize it. Perhaps I am the only one who believes that. Or about the Dragons. But I think really real fundies would agree with me.

I was tagged a while back and didn't play along. Not because I'm so so cooler than that. I just forgot. Because I wasn't blogging.

I'm going to leave you hanging on that cliff so you will tune in tomorrow (or the day after) to read the answers to my tagged thingy-do.

God Bless you all this Christmas in the very Fundy born-again sense. I wish you all salvation this year!
