Typing...typing...thinking...typing...
I'm planning to reward myself with a blog post every 10,000 words, and right now the word count is just over 6000. (For National Novel Writing Month) Talking camels rock!
Happy November...

A close-up and imperfect look at everyday life as orchestrated by a holy, humorous, and hope-full God.

- I'm taking up writing again for the summer and as of August 2012 will be posting delightful tidbits from my upcoming study abroad in Kyrgyzstan with the School for Russian and Asian Studies.
Perhaps a picture is worth a thousand words, but I hope you'll still take time to let a thousand words paint a picture.

thanks for the encouragement
up to 9769 words!
yaaay Cass! I agree. Talking camels do rock...do they have an accent?
Depends who reads it, probably ;)
Camels are (apparently - I do not have direct experience) known for suffering from halitosis... So if you have them talking a lot, you might want to give them a mint to suck first. :)

hmmm...that is very intriguing info, there... might prove useful. Thanks!

Adam has had first hand experience with camels when he lived in UAE as a young'un. I think the ratio of writing to thinking to succeed in NANO, from my observation, is more like "writing, writing, writing, writing, thinking, writing writing..." About 5 parts writing to one part thinking, unless you've done a lot of thinking before November. :)
very true :) in fact, thinking too much left me up all night writing Sunday night. I figure I'd better not think any more. I did read two small books on Camels though, and took a few notes. Up to 14,356...but I don't really have free time to post.
