Jeremy,First off. HAPPY BIRTHDAY YA OLD COOT! I don't care what any calendar says, I find it impossible to believe that you are 30 years old. WHAT? You look younger than me and I'm 27! Some people have all the luck, I guess.
Anyway, I sent you a link to this the other day... or, rather I left it on your Facebook. Given how excellently you write, I think you should seriously consider joining me, boyfriend Joe, and hundreds of thousands of other people around the world this November for NaNoWriMo, also known as National Novel Writing Month.
I have done this once before, and I am excited to be doing it once more. The conceit is simple: you commit to write a novel in one month. 50,000 words in 30 days. That's just under 1,700 words a day. It's not THAT rough.
Joe and I are currently hatching some sort of combined NaNoWriMo... where we BOTH write 50,000 word novels, but find some way for our characters to connect throughout the pieces. Not sure how this will end up working... but that's the way NaNo goes! You just fly by the seat of your pants and write like a banshee (a writing banshee that is) until your ass bleeds, you're crying blood, and your loved ones call the cops thinking you are dead.
