IT'S OCTOBER, YAAAAY!!!

My favorite month, by far. Leaves changing, nice cool weather, fall festivals, Halloween...and oh yeah, my wedding anniversary!

It's also one month until NaNoWriMo! I love NaNo with all my heart, and October has been my dreaming/planning month for NaNo for years now. I'm definitely starting to feel the itch to work on original fiction again, which is awesome. I love writing fanfic, but unfortunately, it doesn't do much to advance my potential career. SO YAY ORIGINAL!

One day, you're gonna walk into a bookstore and see my book on the shelves...or at least be able to find it online somewhere. If I've learned nothing else from Adam, he's shown me that with enough hard work and determination, you really can achieve your dreams.

I'm really excited about NaNo too! Not sure if I'm doing original or fanfic this time, I've done both.

With regards to the publishing thing, not sure if you know him but [livejournal.com profile] copperbadge is one of my favorite people to follow online and he self-publishes his original fiction via Lulu.com. While you can purchase the books and he gets paid for each book, he also makes the PDF downloadable for free.

He's in the process of putting out another book (non-fiction this time) and made a post explaining his process on the editing side of it (http://copperbadge.livejournal.com/3109069.html). I highly recommend going through his posts on the subject (the tags are really useful), it's very informative. Plus he's funny :D
