Well, after abandoning NaNo in a haze of tiredness, I've spent most of November working and sleeping, or trying to. I'm a little fed up with this constant hanging-onto-energy thing I've got at the moment, but there doesn't seem to be much for me to do about it. After December I think it'll pick up.

Otherwise, I'm reading a lot, training horses as always, watching out for bushfires and finally knuckling down to edit. I'm a third of the way through editing my 'main' novel, and in January I'm going to restart one of my others - last year's NaNo, actually. I've got some good ideas for that and I'd like to see what comes of it.

So this means my brief foray into writing short stories is probably going to slow down in the coming months - my brain has returned to noveling endurance rather than short story endurance. Or it's getting there, at least. Something like that. I am really looking forward to getting these novels into shape, though. They're a mess and they've been a mess too long. Onward! Concentrate! Etc.

And now, more coffee.
