Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate it! Still chugging along. My story almost came to an end very quickly but I thought of some extra scenes that would work nicely and add more so that I can try and give it a somewhat exciting end. I just hope I can stretch it out and meet […]
Fantasy Gathering A dash of wizardry and dragons
Halfway through NaNoWriMo
It’s halfway through the month. I never expected to make it this far. Excluding today, I have written 27,304 words thus far. I’m still working on today’s goal. I guess I didn’t mention it but what I do is that I start a fresh Word document every day just to make sure I’m reaching my […]
Day 7 of NaNoWriMo
A week of writing results at 12,898 words. I would keep trying for tonight but I have a couple shows coming on pretty soon (Boardwalk Empire & The Walking Dead) as well as two netflix movies to try to watch and get sent out by tomorrow (Prince of Persia & Splice). Right now, I have […]
There are words in your document??
It’s annoying when it approaches 6 or 7 pm and you’re not even close to the 1,667 word limit. *strangles brain* That is all.
Day 4 of NaNoWriMo
I’ve been looking through the forums of NNWM after I got stumped on how to write telepathy. The idea of using ” ” for telepathy would be a pain in my side because I’d have to keep stating that it’s being done mentally. I can’t stand italics and using italics would be a bit dangerous […]
Day 2 of NaNoWriMo
I don’t expect to blog every day about NaNoWriMo so… Heh! I knew how the story was going to start so it was easy to get that pounded out yesterday. Today was a different story. I spent hours and hours and hours just trying to… really… get… words out. I kept getting up and going […]
Day 1 of NaNoWriMo
To make sure you reach 50,000 words, you should write at least 1,667 words a day. I kept fiddling, going outside, walking around, but I finally sat down and over the course of a few hours typed 1,989 words. Woot! Of course, I used Fantasy Gathering as my setting and decided to pursue a story […]
Plotting, thinking, creating…
It’s hard to plot. I don’t like using online plot generators because the ideas they give are so far different than what I want to write. And the title! I still haven’t figured out the title. I might be lazy and just use Fantasy Gathering but it might be safer to name it “Fantasy Gathering […]
NaNoWriMo
Every time November comes rolling into the picture, a lot of excitement grows around NaNoWriMo. I always get a little curious about joining but then I tell myself that I’d write a chapter or two and lose interest. It’s also intimidating to read comments where people say that writing 50,000 words is pretty easy. It […]
