Day Three


My cat and I could not handle the end of Daylight Savings this morning. (not a surprise).
He woke up at 4am hungry for breakfast, I woke up either at 7 or 8 and I'm still not sure which one it was.

In other news, we didn't get snow last night!
Sure, it's November, this is Maine, and if it's anything like Minnesota in the early winter, it's going to snow in November. I should probably find my winter clothes...? Yeah, that's a good plan.

Oh yes, NaNoWriMo!

I'm slugging along, not doing too badly considering that I've been busy the first two days of the month. I really can't wait until the plot gets going but I'm close to that point! So close!

so close.


The grating protagonist is paragraphs away from meeting her Wise Mentor, who is named Phoebe. They don't like each other. Who am I kidding, Sin doesn't like anyone. Phoebe is still stuck in that post-college "wtf am I doing with my life" phase, and she meets Sin in a YMCA locker room after Sin loses control of her powers and tries to drown her nemesis. High school is great. Actually, I'm already tired of writing about high school drama. It'll be nice once I'm done with that part of the story!
Let's see.... Phoebe... I'm excited to write her. She's going to act all bad-ass, but not actually think she's that bad-ass, but she is that cool. She's book smart but not that good of a teacher, which Sin will constantly remind her of. Phoebe likes to think and act like she knows what's going on, but most of the time she's just as clueless as Sin. Mostly, I'm just super excited to have Sin call her "Pheebs" all the time.

Uhhh I've introduced Hot Guy #1, Alden. So smoking hot. Love interest, yes. Sin isn't going to fall pathetically in love with him. Yet.

Mostly I've just thrown in a bunch of Sin's high school friends, who probably aren't all that important anyway, other than Mel the Nemesis. Poor Mel.

Oh yes, and the other important character is Gracie, who is haunting Sin's home. She and Sin are bffs and yaaay friendship etc whatever.

Ummmmm yup. Writing.



like this corgi, I am just gliding alonggg



That's all I've got. Whooo Sunday!

Heyooo so today I watched my favorite movie! But before we get to that, quick update on movies I've watched since my Superman adventure. #10: Superman II   (same genres as Superman) I was drunk when I rewatched this and fell asleep halfway through, but it still counts. #11: Stardust  Genres: Fantasy, Based off Book, Romance Ok, so I do actually love this movie-- and the book!-- and I considered making the fourth genre Fancy Hair, but decided that was ridiculous #12: The Sting  Genres: Bromance, Shenanigans, Happiness I adore The Sting. Introduced to me by my father, this movie is great. First time I watched it, I thought that the SPOILERPERSON actually SPOILERDIED so that was exciting Movie #13 Star Trek!!!!   Genres: Remake, Bromance, Friendship=Magic Soooooooooooo for whatever reason, this is my favorite movie of all time. I find that fact super perplexing; like.... why???? Why is this movie my favorite??? I hadn'...

wait...what happened to winter?

Not that I'm complaining that winter's almost over. If I had things my way (aka if I could control weather) winter would never extend past March 20th. Snowstorm last week, I'm looking at you. Obviously my goal to write more on this blog went really well. I am a devoted blogger. Uhhhh.... truth be told I'm only starting back up because Camp NaNoWriMo is coming close and I once again feel the need to procrastinate by blogging. I've been throwing around a few ideas for Camp NaNo this April... I've been trying to convince myself that it's time to sit down and write a delightful science fiction planetary romance (or a good ol' fashioned space opera), but so far I'm not dedicated to it. That is, I have no ideas for a planetary romance. Plus, ugh, what if it takes place on this world that has life forms? I know I'd get way too caught up banging out the evolutionary details and no one has time for that during Camp NaNoWriMo. (AKA I am making excuses ...

WINNAAAA

Well, despite all my worries, I've managed to glop my novel together into something essentially cohesive and at 50,015 words, it is gloriously and happily finished! Now I have all kinds of ideas for putting it as the middle book in a trilogy... but I need to take some deep breaths and sit back and plan for a while before I dive back into a new project. As The Wish and the Wolf (as I decided to randomly name it) proved, falling into a novel with no idea of where I'm going isn't exactly a good idea. So, I gained some experience, and now have the longest novel I've ever written under my writing belt. (Although Andrian Adventures is so close and growing!) Andrian Adventures, of course, does not count as a new project, since it's basically been ongoing for the past three years :) While NaNoWriMoing (while avoiding writing) I thought up some fun ideas for AA, and those will have to find their ways into the story. Good news! The cover is almost complete, and soon An...
