November is over, but I still have more to write, and I hate how it's coming along, because it feels so damn childish.

Ah well.

One more chapter. Wrote some others, just need to post them at some point.

I hit 50671 tonight.

I have 26 more chapters to write before it is finished.

I know this is not going to be complete by the end of November. Or even, likely, by the end of this year.

But it's a start.


I already know this world ties into Vian (don't they ALL.)

Here's what I know. Time Hero is set in in Super Far Off FUTURE Vian, this is set a few thousand years before the world explodes and everyone leaves for it, but.

Well. I'll write a babble about it later, how everything ties in.



You guys. I hit 50000 before Thanksgiving. This is a first.

I think I'm going to spend the rest of the month doing things for me. And focusing my attentions elsewhere for a while. I need to stock up my strength where I can get it.

Apparently, Carmine's chapters DO have a point. I just need to find out how to thread them in better. He does play an important part after all (no spoilers here for you), so he deserves the bits he gets.

Dodging Bullets. What a great name. :)


Last night after doing my chapter, I wrote a 4000+ word fic which had absolutely NOTHING to do with NaNoWriMo. Heavy into the BDSM and master/slave theme. And sex. And you know what? It felt DAMN good. I now recall that at certain points during Nano the past few years, I wanted to tear my hair out because I wanted to write something different.

So this year, I did. And I am still mighty pleased with myself about it. Erotica for me is like the junk food of my writing. :3

I dunno if I'll actually write anything along that theme tonight, but I'll probably write for me again. I love writing for me. I don't do it nearly enough.

I know I'm in the middle of Nano, but I need a change of pace and can't think of anything off the top of my head.

Please give me a prompt and/or request a bit about any characters you like. (Please limit it to four or less.)

This is not limited to original characters. Also for fandoms that you know I was active in at one point or another. If you aren't sure of what fandoms I've been involved in, I invite you to look at my userpics. They are tagged under the keyword "fandom."

I finally have a synopsis for my novel (which is still wrong) and I don't even know who the most important character is yet. -_-

I quote from my NaNoWriMo page.

"You cannot sum this story up in a few words. It's about two people who are in love, who are for all intents and purposes, spouses in every aspect except the legal, who have endured years of hardship and have had their relationship tested beyond all known boundaries and still remain together, are strengthened by one another...and they also happen to be brothers.

It's about the different ways that families are made, about how some things work and some things never will, and how sometimes, the best things in life come when you least expect it.

Most importantly, it's about a cat from New York who will take over the world."

WHO IS THIS CAT?

I am going to find out TOMORROW. :|

But now I am going to bed.

I hit over the halfway point tonight. I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE I'M GOING WITH THIS AGAIN I SAY.

I am still filled with hate over what has been written, but I remind myself, this is NaNoWriMo baby, and it's about the words. Right? Right.

An interesting note behind Ipsen's disease. Most, if not all of you, are familiar with the resident mad scientist. His name is Linnae Henrik. He's a douchebag. He's one of the Bad Guys.

SO. I associate diseases with Henrik. And trying to go for the NOT so obvious, I went with Ipsen rather than Ibsen.

You see what I did there?

*hangs head* Yeah, that's all I got.

I'm done for the night.

The last two days have been like pulling teeth.

But it's DONE, or at least as done as I can make it without going and doing massive amounts of research to ensure accuracy. That's NEXT month.

And now it's time for the bed.

As of this evening, I know far more about heart attacks than before, and NOT because of House.

Still plugging steadily along. I think it's safe to say at this point that I don't know at all how to explain anything that I'm writing. I just listen and write what I'm told. *shrugs!*

I do not know what the story is. I know that at some point, a new band is formed. You got me. It's so very mundane this year, I don't know what it is.

16,082 / 50,000 (32.2%)

As of 8:00pm EST. Woot.

I would just like to say:


WOW.


(That is all you get for politics in this journal.)

I'm not a comic artist. Also, I drew these before NaNoMango/NaNoWriMo started, but someone asked me about my [wb] icons. WB stands for Writers Block, and I've done possibly hundreds of these when I have a bad case of it. I just don't save them.

That being said, you can enjoy two that I actually SAVED and formatted correctly. Or boo at them and throw fruits and veggies. Whichever you like. :D

( Writer's Block One )

( Writer's Block Two )

So, that's it. A comic artist I am not. But I can do a mean stick figure. :)

This evening, I think there'll be focus on the rocker...

Come November, you will find me pulling my hair out at takingonedown.

Open minded readers welcomed. :)

If you think you know who this is, you're probably right.

If you think I've removed you by mistake, you might be right, and can tell me so here.

Please stand by.

Also - the Friends Only has been lifted, just cause. Though some things will continue to go under lock and key.
