Greetings, and happy July! I thought I'd combine my monthly update, with my Camp Nano update this time, so this post might get a little longer than usual. Are we ready for an update? Oh good! Let's dig in... Since my last update...Honestly, this month being a Camp Nano month has been a relief, since my main PC decided to die on me, and the rebuild has been scattered with nothing but problems.
The RAM arrived damaged and I had to send it back. Then I discovered my Power Supply was too old, and didn't have the required connectors, so I had to wait on a delivery for that part. Then the build kept flagging up various errors, so the motherboard and cpu had to get sent back to the suppliers, and I'm now waiting on testing of those parts. Being able to sit in my living room on a chromebook and just write to avoid my troubles has been a life saver for my mental state this month.

It was sunrise at 4am this morning, and what a beautiful sunrise it was. Dawn, a new day. A new MONTH in fact... and this month, is Camp Nanowrimo once more. I always try to take part in the Nano events because I feel that whether I meet my target goal or not, I've still made progress. And all words are good words! Having said that, this Camp Nano is important to me. I am officially on a tight deadline for completing Changeling in time for publication next year. I must have the final draft complete before the end of July. That makes my 70k word count for July all the more important to focus on, complete, and hopefully get a little ahead of. I work well on tight deadlines, and this isn't the first time I'll have made 70k in a month but I've got to admit; I'm still nervous! I hope everyone's successful in their projects this month. Let me know what you're working on in comments, tags and/or reblogs! ... And wish me luck! May the odds be in our favor! <3 ;-) P.S It really was a beautiful sunrise this morning.
