Since there is no October Dare this year--like the one put on by Mike Jasper over at the Night Shade Book Discussion boards--I'm daring myself: 50,000 words by Halloween. Since I manged 25.000 on the 3-day Dare, it's a not-too-far-out goal. It's mostly to get me geared up for the NaNoWriMo in November (hoping to hit 75.000).

For October, I plan to work on a novel idea that has been kicking around the corridors of my brain since college. I figure a month of excavations will suffice to raise the dead.
