NaNoWriMo anyone?

still waiting on my beta readers although I already know I have to add some stuff to explain why my main characters vanished.

At a Con last week end, I heard a publisher bemoaning the "Slush Storm" that was coming in the next few months......

Y'know, I wondered about that.  If editors/agents dreaded the flood of awful manuscripts that show up following NaNo, I mean.  On the one hand, it seems like almost everyone is convinced their story is good enough to be published.  On the other hand, are there really that many people who finish AND don't needed extensive editing AND submit? 

Guess there are. Me, I need editing.  Or at least my story does.

I wouldn't think it's so much people who don't need extensive editing, but people who don't THINK they need extensive editing.

I think I'm gonna do my "Bruce Campbell Meets Martin Chuzzlewit" next time--this story has been in my head in one form or another for damn near a quarter century now...

I don't normally find romances interesting, but that has potential.

School work killed my nano (its my first year - of nano, I mean) and so I didn't get to finish. I'm going to try again next year. I still do want to finish what I started though, and do some extensive editing. Then attempt to publish it somewhere. or distribute it to friends to have them read.
