How the hell did that happen?

September flew by.  I haven’t even finished my latest short story yet!  I’m still working on editting Revenant.  Now I have to start brainstorming for November.  I haven’t decided whether I will officially participate in NaNoWriMo, but no matter what I am starting a new novel in November.  The goal is to have 2 first drafts and one completed work before the end of the year.   I’ve got 2 down.

I have two promising ideas, we’ll see which one tickles me the most during the month.

One is a story idea that I’ve been trying on and off again since the late eighties and really, it’s about time it gets written properly.  It’s an epic fantasy however and not easily written.   There’s a lot of work that needs to be put in before I start and I wonder if a month is enough to flesh it out.

The other came to me while watching William Shatner’s Weird or What? with my lovely wife the other day.  It’s a lighter story, somewhat paranormal with a nice twist and some funny bits.  I have the makings of a few interesting characters, some nice settings and fun, but I do not have a plot at all yet.

What to do, what to do?
