Rest in Peace, Pop-Pop

My grandfather recently passed away, suddenly and unexpectedly.


Because of this, it may be awhile before I post here again.  After all, it is hard for me, right now, to write about my feelings.  In fact, it is hard for me, right now, to write at all.


But the words will come back.


Know, in the meantime, I will be finding comfort in warm tea and soothing music...  Indeed, this world is beautiful, and there are still songs to hear.  


The last of his years were full of joy, and I know Pop-Pop would not want me to grieve too long.  

Success!

My NaNo word count has reached 75,300!

The first draft of this novel is coming together, and I am beyond excited.

I have been ridiculously busy.  In good news, though: 


I have reached 51,100 words in NaNo.


I have also posted many new hairsticks to my store, including but not limited to:

Apple Tapestries

Delegate from the Haunted Forest

Delegate from the Coast

Delegate from the Enchanted Forest

Colors of Evening, Design 1
I posted about these when I made them, here.

Hope everyone is well!  :D

Happy Benchmark...

The story that I'm working on just reached 105,105 words.  


The symmetry made me ridiculously happy.


EDIT:
And now my story just reached 111,111 words.  On 11/11/11.  Really, it's the little things.

Disclaimer: No, not all of that was written this month, for NaNo.  This has been a work in progress for about three years now.  However, I am hoping to finish the first draft by the end of the month, so that I can start editing it and hopefully get it published.
