I WON! I WON!!!!!

I did it, I'm done, I finished my novel in less than a month! Goodbye to NaNo for this year, hello to a new world of opportunities.

More NaNo

Sigh. I cut my story for NaNo too short, and now I have to put a little filler in. I haven't put in the very ending yet, because I'm scared I'll screw something up and there won't be enough words. So, I put in a whole chapter of side stories, wrote a page on character descriptions, and now I'm going back and finding words like: haven't, weren't, they're, I'm, and changing them to have not, were not, they are, I am. It is sad and pathetic, but at least I am getting more words!!!

The ending will be awesome, though. I suddenly had the inspiration for it like, 10,000 words ago, and it was like Angels were shining down on me. It was just that good of an idea! I'm hoping to publish the book when I'm done, and also make a sequel. Then, I might make a side-story specifically for one of the characters. Wish me luck...

As Promised, My Second Post

Me and my peeps at a get together for an early Thanksgiving.


My handsome boy, Logan

This one I did on paint, which is sooooo hard.

Well, you just got a peek into my life. Enjoy yours.

Posting

So, I'm trying to do better on how much I post. I've slowly gotten worse and worse to the point where I wouldn't post for like, three months. In fact, to prove that I'll do better, maybe I'll even post two posts today. *the shock*

Update for NaNoWriMo

Hi, humanoid species. I've so far written 30,128 words for NaNoWriMo, but I'm really far back (about 10,000 words) so, *cheerful tone* I'm going to be writing a lot today.

NaNoWriMo

So, this month I'm doing NaNoWriMo for the first time, which is a writing thing where you have to write a novel in a month. So far, it's going pretty good. I have 8,040 words written already, and I think I finally have a plot line. Which, you know, is good, seeing as how I've kinda been winging it.
Hopefully I'll be able to write the full 50,000 words this month. If not, I hope it's high enough that I'm not ashamed of it, and that it ends with an ending, not with a "didn't have enough time to write an ending.
Wish me luck...

Peace Out-
Britney

Isn't tape such a useful companion?
