An Introduction

I'm going to participate in National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) this year. The idea is to write a 50,000 word "novel" by the end of November.

I'm cheating slightly. In reality, I'm using NaNoWriMo as impetus to continue writing something I've already been working on, but for reals this time. The plan is to write every day this month, for at least a few hours.

As a father of two with a full-time job, finding the time to write can be difficult, and excuses are easy to come by. Thankfully, my lovely and talented wife is in full support of the project, so I'm hoping to make some serious headway this month. She hereby has permission to bully me if I start slacking off. 

I immediately regret writing that.

This blog will be used to track progress as I go. Updates will daily at best, weekly at most. I will try not to be a morose little shit in said posts, but I can't promise anything.

Thanks for reading. Here we go...
