How dare I go and try to write a novel WITHOUT Floyd being in it! He popped up over the weekend and, well, all hell has broken loose in the thing! But that's okay! This NaNo project has made me realize one thing-- I need to write what I was meant to write. I started out trying to do something different, that was still "ghosty" but in what I thought would be a more "literary" way. But, well, then Floyd showed up. I realized that I can still be "literary" in what I do because it is not really commercial, typical genre fiction either. So here is what it comes down to: I am going to strive to be the female George Saunders. If you don't know who he is, look him up. Then go buy "CivilWarLand in Bad Decline" and have a chat with me. He uses some elements of the paranormal, but it's definitely literary. So, that's what I'm going to do. I'm gonna be me!
