Thirty Days and Nights!

Yeah so this whole fanfic thing isn’t working out too well.

It’s looking more and more like I should start over.

I mean I only got about 3.3k words in anyway…so I think I will. Yikes, it’s 8 days in…I’m setting myself a deadline. I have to have 20k words by the 10th. Or at LEAST 17k. That will put me ahead, and if I can come up with a good enough idea that will inspire me and move me forward, I’ll be all set :)

• Question: I have a lovely friend who is doing NaNo (who also happens to be an excellent writer) and I'm sure he could use some support/a few followers. Would you be willing to point people in the direction of his blog? URL is thefinalblogattempt. - greeneyedfeelsmonster
• Answer:

  Sure THING!
  Hey guys, check out this guy’s blog!! :)

  DO ITTTT you know you want to! Give a fellow NaNoer some support!

but I have a 4 hour drive home tomorrow to catch up! I figure, I’m about 5 thousand words behind right now, I can make that up EASY in 4 hours! I still have time tonight to get caught up, too!

I have all 1700…I’ll get to it once I’m home tonight :) I don’t have any homework to do~

25 Things You Should Know About NaNoWriMo

emilieundead:

An article on the woes of NaNoWriMo by an incredibly witty (and cynical) writer. For example:
“The way you survive NaNoWriMo is the same way any novelist survives: by spot-welding one’s ass to the office chair every day and putting the words to screen and paper no matter what. Got a headache? Better write. Kid won’t stop crying? Better write. Life is hard and weepy-pissy-sadfaced-panda-noises? Fuck you and write. Covered in killer bees? Maybe today’s not the best day to write. You might want to call somebody. Just don’t pee in fear. Bees can smell fear-urine. Pee is to bees as catnip is to cats.”

I’m already behind. (:

 No you’re not! It’s just the first day :)

Tonight what I get home, I shall do homework. Then, if I have free time, I’ll do a few things for myself, and then perhaps type 300 more words…:D

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE ELSE!

• Question: Hi! Sorry, but is there a specific website or something that you would rather us use? Like, LiveJournal, etc. Or would you rather recommend Microsoft Word or something close to that? Thank you! - frnakiero
• Answer:

  I’m not too sure what you mean, but if you mean a program that you can use for writing then word is cool. You can also download writing software (I have a post about it right Here: http://nanowrimon.tumblr.com/post/10644753606/software-for-writers-and-its-all-free ) and that’s pretty helpful! Just find a program that’s right for you :) 
  But basically any kind of writing software/strategy you use that makes you work well is best. Try a few things to figure out what that is!

How’s everyone doing??
