Down in Flames

As you can tell from the date, I've been busy and it hasn't been with writing a 50,000-word novel in one month. I could blame it on the dog: the dog ate my computer. Crashed. Big time. Spent a few weeks getting up the courage to buy a new one and by then I was busy with some video production and, well, NaNoWriMo fell by the wayside, along with the dog and I didn't complete the Ruggles thing. Although I did get about 8,000 words into it by the time my computer crashed. Died. Gave up the ghost. And the re-write improved it. Much. So I gave it my best shot but the writing gods and goddesses were... Ah, the goddesses. Ah well, there may well be next year.
