The Closet Nerd Network: Ok, here's the goal

Fantasy WorldCon 2009 in Montreal, Cananda.

Neil Gaiman is going to be the guest of honor. I'm going to go and meet him, but I'm also going to shop out my novel. The goal is to finish my first novel by then so I can try and get it published. It's in August before grad school will start. When I saw that Neil Gaiman was the guest of honor I knew it was meant to be. Our lives are meant to be tied together. I just know it. That sounds so ridiculous but... he's the whole reason I tried hard enough for the Clarion and even though I failed at entering that I succeeded in thinking of myself as a writer. Now I know if I work hard enough for a year on my novel to finish it, I can go to WorldCon and I just know some publisher will pick up my novel. It'll work!!!!

Theme Song

She's writing, she's writing,
She's writing a novel.
She's writing, she's weaving,
Conceiving a plot.
It quickens, it thickens.
You can't put it down now.
It takes you, it shakes you,
It makes you lose your thought.
But you're caught in your own glory.
You are believing your own stories.
Writing your own headlines.
Ignoring your own deadlines.
But now you've gotta write them all again.

You think she's an open book,
But you don't know which page to turn to, do you?
You think she's an open book,
But you don't know which page to turn to, do you?
Do you? Do you?

You want her, confront her.
Just open your window.
Unbolt it, unlock it,
Unfasten your latch.
You want it, confront it.
Just open your window.
All you really have to do is ask.

But you're caught in your own glory.
You are believing your own stories.
Timing your contractions.
Inventing small contraptions
That roll across your polished hardwood floors.

You think she's an open book,
But you don't know which page to turn to, do you?
You think she's an open book,
But you don't know which page to turn to, do you?
Do you? Do you?

You think she's an open book,
But you don't know which page to turn to, do you?
Do you? Do you? Do you?
