(My favourite shot – taken when I am at the departure gate, coming back home. It also means the mission completed successfully and I have 1 less thing to worry about once I am back)

I did not check but this probably one of the longest mind being blank when it comes to blogging.
Working 7 days a week including working up to 10 at night on the weekdays sure pulls the energy from the mind.

Continuing from Day 1, my entry for this year’s NaNoWriMo is titled “The Aryan Wind”…a mix of espionage, adventure and mystery.
The writing event of the year is finally here – NaNoWriMo or National Novel Writing Month.
The Unexpected Mission is the title of my entry for 2009’s NaNoWriMo and it has taken me about 11 months to complete it to my satisfaction.

It is the time of the year again for a quick flashback of the path that this blog has taken throughout the year 2009.

I am sorry for not writing very regularly for the blog.
It is just that I have been busy with work and during the night and on the weekends, I have been “burning the midnight oil” on my novel for the NaNoWriMo 2009.… [Click to read the rest] “NaNoWriMo 2009: Nearing 50,000 Words Closure”
