Spinnerette

I like to surprise myself by doing what I never thought I could do.

I uploaded the updated first draft, and there’s a link to the right, let me know if you’d like the password to check it out :). It’s looking like it’ll turn out to be a really heart-wrenching story, all told.

I had the day off, and managed to hit my word goal for the day in two hours, and that seems to be my average time as of late. I’m 10% complete and it was easy, I just have a feeling things are going to be a little bit more difficult for me as I continue. There are going to be more characters, to be sure, I’ll need them.

Anyway, if you do take the time to read it, let me know what you think, I’m really interested.

I started NaNoWriMo two hours before midnight last night for no reason other than I was struck with such sudden, fierce inspiration that I had to. I wasn’t planning on doing it, honest. I literally sat down and wrote 1318 words in those two hours, and submitted my word count 3 minutes before midnight, to make it official that I started on day 1. I haven’t written anything fictional since elementary school, it’s a big deal for me to even be inspired to do such a thing.

I wrote today for a good three hours and beefed up my word count to 3384, going over and above today’s total word quota by 51 words. I’m caught up, and it wasn’t even that bad. I have my manuscript linked in the sidebar, let me know if you’d like the password :)

My husband Alex is doing NaNoWriMo, too, so I have a feeling we’ll get a little friendly competition going shortly ^_^. He’s creating a race and society of people for his text-based role play game, and it’s going to be awesome.

If you’re doing NaNoWriMo, add me, I’m Goethe over there
