Simon Sunday: "Aren't You Finished With That #@%! Novel Yet??? 

Critic Cat Pans My Novel

Simon only remembers the parts of Chris Baty's NaNoWriMo Bible "No Plot? No Problem!" that refer to snacking. Therefore, he's rather disappointed that not only is snacking NOT happening as often as he thinks it should be, but, in my push to hit 35,000 words this afternoon, his "tea" was a couple of minutes late. He's retaliating by leaping on to the back of my desk chair and draping himself over my shoulder, digging his back claws into my neck while I'm trying to type.

And, to top it all off, he thinks I'm writing the cat parts ALL WRONG. I'll be tappity-tapping away writing an amusing scene with one of the characters' cats (two characters have cats...so far), only to have him leap onto my desk and add such colourful scene description and back story like:

"lkopihdljkfdghewr0000000000000000000" and

"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\098fgh"

Which wouldn't be so bad except that the first bit only counts as one word and the second one doesn't count at all!
