Goal:
Write a novel that I’m proud of of which I am proud.

Motivation:
a) It’s all I want to do.
b) It rationalizes talking to myself.
c) Irritating people and situations are much more bearable as possible novel fodder.

Conflict:
The more I learn the more I realize I don’t know.

Protagonist:
Karen/Elizabeth
Strengths: curious, adventurous
Weaknesses: worries too much

Antagonist:
JoJo the self-doubt demon
Strengths: persistent, excels at manipulation
Weaknesses: backs down when confronted with facts

Will Karen/Elizabeth defeat JoJo and write an awesome novel?

Hint: I only like books with a happy ending.

Unfortunately, reading about someone writing is, well, dull. So in the mean time, check out the lemurs – they’re fun!
