As you might know if you're one of the two or three souls who read this blog regularly, I've been working on writing a 50,000 word novel in 30 days as part of National Novel Writing Month (click the "Participant" box if you want to know more about NaNoWriMo; click the link to my novel blog above it if you want to actually read the thing).
Now, the first to know about The Blind Dog Blog were some friends at work. But I'd noticed their readership had lapsed of late, probably because they work with me and are sick to death of me as it is. So, I didn't tell anyone at work about my NaNoWriMo novel. I wanted to see if I could bring it in under the radar.
Nope. Today, I received generous complimentary words about the novel from Ben, a great guy, who's been following it religiously and so far likes what he's seeing. Bus-ted! :-) Seriously, I'm glad he likes it. He's an ordained minister and hence (hopefully) possessive of a decent moral compass, so his like of the work tells me I'm on the right track.
For anyone else I know at my work who chooses to read it, as I've posted a few times now, please remember it is a work of FICTION and any resemblance to actual persons living or dead is entirely coincidental. I'll admit cribbing some real-life experiences and real-life personality characteristics, but I've cribbed no real-life people in their entirety.
And that's all I've got tonight. It's been a long weird week and I think all who work with me will agree with that assessment.
