Last week, I started brainstorming ways I could help #NaNoWriMo participants throughout and after November. I was in Professional Editor mode, not Writer mode.
Or at least, I was at the beginning. But the more I thought about it, the more I wanted to participate in NaNo myself.
I haven't yet returned to my editing-related brainstorming session (oops). But something in me was reawakened, and today, I find myself in my notes app, musing about a character's potential.
