July Camp

It'd be great if I could be at real camp, but I'm trying out July Camp NaNoWriMo. After my spectacular failure at April's session, this time I've actually "planned" a novel, and even if I don't hit my word goal, hope to write at least once a day.

I won't be writing Andrian Adventures... People (you know, the three people who've read AA) always ask if I'm still writing it. I'm all:

I can water my wii with orange juice if I want to!

Um so yeah. Anyway.

I struggled for a while trying to decide if I wanted to write a fantasy or sci-fi, and determined that really all I wanted to do was write a horrible post-apocolyptic dystopia, so that's what I'm doing. I struggled for a while about how many main characters I wanted; settled on three, and then decided that since I am not the best at writing third-person POV fantasy, I was going to make it 1st person POV for all three characters.... this is going to be one helluva magical trainwreck :) As I was planning all of this last night, I determined that the story would end at a lake. (?!?!? Like, what?!) No worries. I've totally got this.
Also, my Number 1 Rule is no werewolves... so I am absolutely not allowed to put in any werewolves. Not one. Not even a mention of one.





I'm ready to go! I set the goal for 25,000 words (it's summer, I can slack if I want to). Time to get writing! :)
