So I haven't blogged lately, even if I do have a lot to blog about. I haven't told you guys about YALLfest yet, which I still plan to do. I haven't blogged about what I've read, which is just bad because I think we now know, if I don't blog it, I don't remember it. Lots of things.
And we'll still have to wait another day for those because I have December on the brain today.
See, now that I've all but finished the first draft on my NaNoWriMo book, which is titled HOOD, by the way, I feel like I'm kind of floating in the land of unknown. I always feel lost when I finish a book anyway but after writing one in a little over three weeks, I feel like my center of gravity is off. You know how when you've been swimming for a while and then you get out of the water and suddenly you're all, "Why is walking so hard?!" That's how I feel about stepping back into the world after being hunched over my laptop for a month.
It also just so happens that my life isn't going to be very busy in December. My semester ends this week, NaNoWriMo is over... hell, even Sons of Anarchy's 4th season ends in two weeks. Besides normal life stuff, my schedule is significantly lighter. Which would be an awesome time to write a book, except that I just finished one.
So I plan on making December The Month Of Creativity! First off, I want to do a few rewrites on HOOD before putting it up for a little bit. Then I have revisions to do on MISFITS and some pretty big rewrites on KILLER CUPCAKES. I'm literally going to be up to my eyeballs in my own books! I'm pretty excited about it.
I also plan to brainstorm a lot, listen to a lot of music and write down every single idea that pops into my head for the new year, in which I'm hoping to write three books and jump back into QueryLand. That's right. Bring it, 2012!
So while I am kind of staring wide-eyed at December, I'm also really excited. It will be nice to not have major goals and to just let the creativity flow.
So, to other NaNo-ers and No-NaNo-ers, what are your plans for December?

I say bring it on, December! I really floundered with my rewrites this month, so I need to buckle down and get them done.
