Words To Drown By

So tonight is the night! Nano will be starting at midnight & though I may not begin typing at the stroke of 12, I will be getting my write on at some point in the wee AM hours. My theme song for Confluence: Ruin is Smashing Pumpkins remake of their The Beginning Is The End Is The Beginning.

I'm dressed for our Halloween party (Betty Draper a la Latina) & can honestly say that I look forward to reading how I begin later because there will likely be a good amount of drinking at this party.

I'm wishing everyone excess of words & lots of luck getting onto the NaNo site before Monday morning. Let's just hope it doesn't crash... again. ;)

Besos!

That's right, a sequel to Confluence will be my NaNovel this time 'round! YAY!

I'm like a six year-old, I'm so excited. After reading a post by lycorislaramie about being so caught up in a prior (well ongoing, really) work, a little voice in the back of my mind started to nag me. And before I knew it, I was reading the first part of Confluence and getting totally stoked to continue the saga. :D

And to think if I'd not signed on to LJ & spiffed up and poked around, I'd likely still have no idea of any substance. Providence rocks!

So, now all I've to do is get some sort of outline or at least an endpoint for this next installment of Confluence. I've already named it: Confluence: Ruin & have commissioned a bit of digital artwork to go with it (can't wait to see that). I'm pretty excited to find out what my characters will get up to this time around and how much damage they'll do.

Has anyone else gone over to the NaNo site yet? I've been every day but it just seems kinda' dead on the fora. Maybe I'm just in the dead threads. ;)

Besos!

*blows dust off LJ*

*cough- cough*

It's almost November & that means NaNoWriMo. So begins the annual resurrection of my LJ. I'm feeling like a new theme is in order...

By the by, I have no plot & a desk so cluttered I can't fit my laptop on it. Lots of work to do & just over 2 weeks to get it done. ;)

The fever has lifted and I will finally get back to writing more of my novel! YAY! I did write while under the influence of a fever and I have to say that I'm not going back to read it now because I'm sure I'd want to begin again. I'm following my notes & forging on! I've been writing all day and what's currently being typed is lucid, so that's something! :)

The NaNo site has finally fixed the upload wordcount thing... so here's my tally so far... 28057.

Third year & I'm behind but I've still a good amount of time to get this done before Thanksgiving (which seems to be my usual target date).

Hope everyone else is killing on NaNo. Per the stats on the site my buds are kicking ass & writing words! WooHoo! Keep it up guys! :D

Oh and yesterday, while I was emerging from the haze of illness and watching a football game, I saw the trailer for Awake. Just have to say, love Hayden Christensen & Terence Howard that I do, this film skeeves me and I'm not so sure I can stand to watch. The commercial gave me the creeps & I don't even have a hospital or medical procedure phobia! Urgh! :(

Anyway, pens up and fingers on keyboards... I'm off to pour a cup of coffee and get my ass in gear! Besos!

I am very excited! It's NaNo Eve and I am getting more & more excited as the magic hour draws near! I've done my donating @ NaNoWriMo like all good little NaNos should.... but the forum must be way busy because it's taking forever to load.

As usual, I will be up & poised @ midnight and write the rest of the night. I don't think I'll bother posting the writing this year because it's fanfic (The 4400) but I will be posting my wordage and general mental deterioration updates as we go along. ;) Honestly, I've made enough OCs that I swear it's resembling FF less and less as time goes on. :D

I want to totally wish all my NaNo buds the Best NaNo Evar! Remember breadth is your friend and expound until it's criminal!

Oh yeah and major congrats & well wishes to sw_fangirl on taking the plunge with her first NaNo this year! YAY!!!!! *like Kermit w/ arms flailing*

One more thing...
