False Knowledge

How can one have false knowledge? Either one has knowledge or one doesn't. Knowing, by definition, is to be aware of truth. To "know falsely" is to not know, therefore, people may think they "know" when, in fact, they do not. False "knowing" is a lie. It is not knowing, just like there is never a light made out of darkness. If false light is darkness, how can it be light?

NANOWRIMO!!!

NaNoWriMo is about to strike again! 30 days (and nights) of writing furiously! 50,000 words in 30 days. It doesn't have to be good. Save editing for later. 

www.nanowrimo.org

Some basic rules:

• Write - don't go back and edit anything because every word goes toward your word count.
• Can't do one word 50,000 times.
• OpenOffice's word count is different than NaNoWriMo's official counter. I don't feel safe until my OO says 52,000 words.
• It should be fiction.

There is also the Young Writers Program for people under 18. If I recall correctly, this program allows the writer to choose how many words their goal is going to be. A link to YWP is below.

Story Lite

I've been putting my notes for "L'Jn - the Novel" on Story Lite. It's a pretty cool program. Most word processing programs show you the main page. This one has a main page, plus several small ones. It looks like a desk top with cards scattered around on it. You can make the cards bigger or smaller. You can write as much as you want: a scroll bar appears if you write more than you can see. You can add more cards or take them away.


I'm sure it can be used for more than just writing stories. I use it only for notes for this project. It's great for notes.


I told Geoff (who, as I understand it, developed the program) that I would put a link to his page. You can download Story Lite there (upper right hand corner) and you can join his forum.

Apart and A part

Have you ever noticed that "apart" means "separated from" even though the word is together?

And have you noticed that "a part" means "together, or part of the whole" even though the word is separated?

Did you notice that inflammable and flammable mean the exact same thing (something that can be set on fire)?
