Novel Idea

I've been contemplating on starting on a novel, no thanks to office friend AD who keeps bugging me to write about his life. He does live an interesting life -- and I couldn't believe anybody could be a bigger drama queen than he is. But I'm daunted by how much time I need to work on it. For one, my day job needs my focus with stricter targets this year. Maybe I'd follow Dean's Salamanca process where he devoted the nights to writing, finishing it in thirty days or something like that. I'll worry about getting it published later.
