OK, I have a good excuse. My brother is in the hospital with colon cancer, and I made a trip to visit him. So at least two days went by without a single word being written. I was ahead of the silly little word count anyway, so I'm not too concerned. In the past I have missed days in a row with no problem. November always seems to be the month when the family has health problems. The last two NaNoWriMos I had to move my mother-in-law when her Alzheimers acted up. Now this year my brother has colon cancer. What is it about November that causes this?
On the good side, I was able to visit the old Stoke's homeplace while I was home for the visit. It's in ruins, of course, about ready to fall in on itself. All the barns have collapsed. The home place has a prominent position in my novel, of course.
