National Novel Writing Month!

Wed Nov 18, 2009, 9:01 PM
UPDATE 11/18/09: 11:59 P.M. 25,000 words! Halfway there!

UPDATE 11/13/09: I hit 15,000 words on the dot today! Some lucky Friday the thirteenth, huh? <3

Ever heard of it?

Here's a link, if you haven't: [link]

And if you're too lazy to click on the link, here's what it is, in the words of the web-site:

What: Writing one 50,000-word novel from scratch in a month's time.

Who: You! We can't do this unless we have some other people trying it as well. Let's write laughably awful yet lengthy prose together.

Why: The reasons are endless! To actively participate in one of our era's most enchanting art forms! To write without having to obsess over quality. To be able to make obscure references to passages from our novels at parties. To be able to mock real novelists who dawdle on and on, taking far longer than 30 days to produce their work.

When: You can sign up anytime to add your name to the roster and browse the forums. Writing begins November 1. To be added to the official list of winners, you must reach the 50,000-word mark by November 30 at midnight. Once your novel has been verified by our web-based team of robotic word counters, the partying begins.

And that's that.
So do y'all get what I'm trying to do? 50,000 words in 30 days? Pretty intense, in my opinion. xD
Currently, I'm 5,642 words behind schedule. *FAIL*
But I've recalculated my daily word count so I'll still have 50,000 by the end.

So, because of NaNoWriMo, I will not be posting any art at all this month (because, you know, I've been so good about posting stuff), even though I was feeling guilty enough to actually begin working on something before November. xD
Expect an update in December, though!

EDIT: I also realized that I missed my three year anniversary on DA! *FAIL PART II*
Let's see, on the 3rd, I believe I was... Hanging out with =umi-kun! So there. That counts as my celebration. xD

EDIT 2: BAHAHAHAHA NINJA ASSASSIN JOURNAL SKIN BECAUSE I'M MORE THAN A LITTLE LAME.
I also really want to see this movie and might actually get the chance, even thought it's rated R. My daddy says he'll take me. xD;

I'm not sure.

You were the one who was the method to my madness. --TTGL
:iconwolvendancer:
... Why, likewise!

This is a puzzling trend.

But I fixed it too. 8D

OMG, it's my favorite Yuuko ever!
I was hoping you'd have a dA account~

Totally watching you.
And this is Sarah btw. Just wanted to assure you that I'm not some crazy creeper xD
:iconwolvendancer:
Bwah... ^///^
It's a pleasure to be appreciated by my favorite Maya!

Oh yeah, I knew. I'd meant to watch you too... But I forget to do things when I'm on the internet. Especially when the thing I have to do is related to the internet, you know? xD
:iconsorairo-days:
Oh I totally know what you mean! I usually go on the internet to do something important, but then I get distracted by more important things like wasting time on Facebook or something xD I'm hopeless sometimes haha~
:iconwispofwillow:
Hi- just wanted to drop by and say that you and your group all had wonderful cosplays at Otakon! I got a picture (as Sakura) with all of you on Friday, and got another picture of you all making silly faces (in exchange for Snickers bars) on Sunday. You guys are the best Tsubasa cosplayers I've ever seen :XD:!

Oh, why thank you!

And yes, I remember you! That was a fun picture, especially with candy. xP

And you weren't a half bad Sakura yourself. ^^
:iconwispofwillow:
Haha- we were a little worried we were disturbing you guys at rest. The picture was fun to take, too- all of the expressions were done very well!

Aw- thank you! Think I'm going to improve it for next year...
But I had nothing on your Sakura- she was adorable!
