On this day

1795 French Directory election - Wikipedia

In 1795, the French Directory, a five-man revolutionary government, is created. This lasted about 4 years when Napoleon overthrew it, created the Consulate, which lasted about 5 years before Napoleon declared himself emperor, and, well, France had a lot of governmental changes in a relatively short time.

More importantly there are 59 days left in the year and it's the start of NaNo wherein I shall once again attempt to write 50,000 words in 30 days. I have not once accomplished this. Between October 1 and December 31 there's a lot going on. Not just holidays but birthdays including my grandmother's upcoming 96th.

What am I working on this NaNo? Editing Malcolm and Louise's 3rd story which I tried to have finished last month and will now have ready this weekend. Finally!

And Kaya and Paul's eldest daughter's story. I'm so excited to write this one, though I admit to having chapter 1 already finished. The inspiration struck me this summer and suddenly I know what I wanted to write for her story and plotted the majority of it out. Well, the major points of it at least.

Well, I say plotted...it's plotted for me. It's got scene ideas, a bit of dialog here and there, and a juicy middle. The ending, well, not so much fleshed out, but I can't wait to see what happens!
