Kibbles And Bits, Realm's Faire Stockade, The Day Of The Doctor

I need to keep moving on ESCALTAION and the MS is moving right along! So I'll keep today's post short and sweet.
 
NaNo: As crazy as this sounds, as I'm trying to wrap up ESCALATION, I'm going to join NaNo for November and write a book I have outlined three years ago.
 
This is a psychological thriller ala Stephen King from his early days. But forget these full length novels. This one will be a 175 page novella and I am not going to surpass that page number no matter what. But rest assured, this story is going to be real cool and very scary. And creepy.

Realm's Faire Stockade: Okay, this is a short post. And you took the time to stop by. So I'll include a pic of me in stockades. This is in preparation for Gwen Gardner's  Realm's Faire Stockade, for better or worse. Why am I smiling? Can somebody please get me a glass of grog? Make it three. I think I'm going to need them. Oktoberfest isn't over yet.

  14. Stephen! Oh my gosh- you're doing NaNo? Yay! Will you be my writing buddy? My NaNo name is Bevimus. I'll send you happy nano messages and cheer you on!

    That stockade picture it a hoot! Me me giggle.

    I'm odd man out on Dr. Who, having never been a fan of the series (there are so few of us left in the world, thankfully for you Who fans.) But hazah for all of you- live it up!
