Yarn PAPER Scissors

OK. So, in this modern day and all, paper is a matter of perspective, yes? I'm reading a book called No Plot? No Problem! It is how-to book and kit, directing would-be novelists in a writing adventure. At the end of a month's time, those taking advantage of the kit -- its method, progress charts and these lovely things called "onerosity" coupons -- will have completed a 50,000 word novel.

I'm thinking of actually trying this novel-writing thing. But, I'm also thinking that the method this silly little book uses to get lazy novel-writers actually writing (and not playing computer Scrabble) are worthwhile.

If I were to use the methods for say, sock knitting or crafting that silly little art-canvas scrapbooking dealy that I've been thinking of... just think of the results. This just might be a new-year resolution...
