yet another update

My novel is about my everyday existence, so I guess my blog can be about my novel.  I'm 18,159 words in today.  It's consuming my life, which is great.  My life could use some consuming.  It feels great.  I feel like, "Why don't I write a novel every month?"  But I know rationally that that might not be a good idea. 

Thanks for your cheers of encouragement, friends and family!  It's very helpful to have your love and support.
