November was originally the 9th month of the year, but was changed to the 11th in the Julian calender. (Latin “Novem”= 9) If you follow the Wiccan calender, November 1st is New Year, as Samhain marks the transition between the old and the new. I like New Year in January, however, and so this month…

Magickal Month- November
So this is a thing I want to start doing from now on. For each month, I’m going to talk a little about the tides of the month, the lunar and astrological dates, stones and herbs I’m especially drawn to, and do a 3 card reading for the month. At the bottom, I’ll talk about…
NaNoWriMo update and some thoughts on friendship (a bunch of lists)
So this is the time in November where I realize how incredibly far behind I am on NaNo. In the past few years, I’ve just stopped here. That’s because there was usually someone in the hospital, or dying, or recently passed, and November is just kind of a shit month all around and writing 50,000…
Camp NaNO
Nope. It doesn’t look like I’m going to make it for this Camp NaNoWriMo session either, unless I can somehow pull off 9000 words in the last three days. I’m at peace about it, however, because I have written 16,000 new words. And honestly, for a month’s worth of work, I don’t feel like that’s…
Pagan Blog Project Week 27- NaNoWriMo
Specifically, Camp NaNoWriMo. This is the reason that I’m getting some words on the page right now. In fact, NaNo is the MAIN reason I’ve managed to write anything at all. There’s something seductive in a deadline. Something inspiring about seeing your stats everyday. Something about the good-natured competition that makes me actually accomplish my…
Another naNOwrimo.
I tried. I really did. I got to 17,451 words. But I haven’t written in the past 7 days, and I just don’t see myself making it, even though I logically know I could just bust my ass and finish it. There are a few reasons (excuses). One, sitting in bed for long hours is…
Writing Rituals and NaNoWriMo update
NaNoWriMo is going pretty well so far. As of right now, I’m about 3500 words behind on my goal word count for today, but that can be easily made up. Also, I’m going to use this blog post as part of my word count. That may not be strictly legal, but I’m writing and being…
NaNoWriMo word count
I’ve done NaNo for 3 years now. The first year, my grandmother passed. Last year, my ex passed. I lost my momentum both times. However, I DID win in 2011, and I’m thinking it’s another odd year, and time to win again. This is my word count.
Samhain, Rememberance, Yule presents, and NaNoWriMo
Sorry I’ve been quiet. The death of my ex hit me pretty hard, and I haven’t done a lot of anything, including NaNoWriMo. I’m at roughly 1900 words, and it’s day 7. I need to decide to either catch up or give up. I’m not going to be hard on myself either way, I’m just…
