Going to try to ignore the ominous feeling of being tired already on #NaNoWriMo Day 3. And of course there's no creamer in the break room, so I'll probably have to over-sugar my tea.

Got my flu shot this morning and had my bivalent booster last week, so I should be protected and protective when I get together with family and friends during this month of #NaNoWriMo and #Thanksgiving.
Here's hoping the flu shot brings nothing but a sore arm in terms of side effects...

Sigh. Dear autocorrect. How did you get "cook" out of "go"? 😜

Wrote nearly 2k words for #NaNoWriMo last night before heading to bed around 3am. Forgot to turn off my regular 8am alarm so now am debating the merits of world-building vs trying to cook back to sleep.

Just in case you haven’t already watched this today. I always thought of THRILLER as a St. Louis song, because Vincent Price is from here. #CoSoMusic #HappyHalloween https://youtu.be/sOnqjkJTMaA

If any of my #NaNoWriMo peeps are interested in joining my regional's Midnight Kick-off #writing party tonight (starts 10pm CST), DM me and I'll link you to our Discord!

Brain "helpfully" provided me a dream with an Underworld-style brawl on this #Halloween / #NaNoWriMo-Eve, so I guess I'm awake early...

POV: @MisterFoxGuy reminds me that #NaNoWriMo starts in just over 24 hours, and I realize I haven't named my main character yet. Who else is thinking of joining me on this month of literary abandon? I may be pantsing this one more than usual.

Had my 2nd booster (bivalent) yesterday, and while it hasn’t hit me as hard as the 1st booster did, I’m still feeling a mite puny. I know it won’t last, and I’ll be glad of the extra protection after, but it sure sucks to ache all over.

I feel like a kid on the first day at a new school, where I don't know anyone or any of the routines, waiting for a bully to pounce, trying not to think of the teddy bear at the bottom of my backpack and desperately wanting to go back home. 😞

#introductions I'm the co-ML of the St. Louis region of #NaNoWriMo. We're getting ready to spend the month of November writing every day, trying to reach the goal of 50,000 words. That's a good chunk of a novel!

#introductions I'm Jen, I love to read and I occasionally write books. No, you've never read them. I also do science for a living. Thanks for the welcome.

Well, I'm here.
