Too Many?

I completed The Graveyard Book last night. The ending was a lot better than I thought it would be, although I wish it had been different. Overall, I don't think I would read the book a second time. It's like one of those movies that you saw at the theatre when it first came out, but you'd never actually pay to see it again, much less actually buy it on DVD. Oh well. Now I'm going to finish The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C.S. Lewis.

I picked up the second book of Beautiful Disruption once more. I'm trying to finish it so that I can write book 3 for NaNoWriMo this year. I'd like to finally finish the series. I started writing it in 2006, the first book taking me two years to complete (that includes editing, etc) and it is now 2010. You'd think I should almost have book 3 completed, but I don't. But I'm going to try and have it done by the end of this year! Man, I always feel as if I don't have a lot of goals, but apparently I do a lot more than most of the people I know. Goodness. It's crazy how lazy people can be. Well, maybe I shouldn't say lazy. How about ... not driven? I don't know if there's a better word for that or not. It has slipped my mind.

Keep an eye on my word progress meters on the right column of this page and tell me whether or not I'm slacking off on writing Beautiful Disruption Book 2. Which I most certainly will, and which desperately needs a name. But that is for another post.

  2. reading Voyage of the Dawn Treader too but it's packed in a box somewhere, so by the time I find it, you'd probably already have finished it :P
    and don't worry, I will not let you slack off on BD! I'm expecting an edited chapter of it every week!
