So this is going to be a HUGE wall-o-text under the cut, but it's the 4155 words I have so far for NaNoWriMo. I am looking for concrit and ideas about characterization (I feel like my two main characters are really flat because I'm probably worrying too much about keeping things moving. Can you tell they have personalities? If no, what do you think I should do about it?), but all thoughts are welcome. Plz halp?

( Probably calling it Final Winter but idk yet )

Soooo...it may be a bad idea, but I've decided to try NaNo(WriMo) again this year. Last time I only got 260 words in, but because I cheated a bit I'm already at 925! I only started today/last night or there'd be more (I hope lol). If you're on the official site, I'm adustierstar on there, too - friend me! Make me feel behind with your much better wordcounts! I like friends :D

In other news, my trial voice lesson (!!!!) is scheduled for Tuesday afternoon - I'm really excited, but I'm also super nervous! I've been to probably 10 or 12 choir rehearsals since 2003, and that is literally all the serious singing I've done. In six years. I'm going to have lost so much range and technique and everything - omg it's going to be so embarrassing! Must. Not. Panic. He knows I haven't sung in years and years, so hopefully it will be fine O_O;; Also I feel like a failure already because I don't have my music with me lol I know it's stupid because my music books are where I last used them...in Valpo, where I went to high school, which is when I last used them. Omg this is going to be...something. We'll see. KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON.

Ugh I went to the gym again today like I was supposed to (and bought a handbag from the handbag man! It is purple and adorable and the inside fabric is pink with silver stars!), and like Wednesday I am already sore from it. Next time (after my appointment) I'll be back up to 30 minutes of cardio machines, and I'm already back on all the resistance stuff I was doing before - though a few of them need the weights upped next time. I upped arm weights today (to a whopping 5kg oooo fancy) and added reps to my abs stuff last time. So in other words, I'm getting there. AND it turns out I have lost two inches off my bust and hips and three off my waist! Since May, so it's not earthshattering, but still - it's something! At least I know I'm not gaining weight/size (which I sometimes convince myself is true and then panic for a while). So hooray for that!

I feel like I have a handle on half my Christmas presents, so that's good, too - I'm really glad that I'm doing so much and making myself so busy. I just feel better about things. But also I'm glad that I've decided to actually do things that I always used to like to do then stopped for various reasons - I don't want to let my life get in my way, you know? So I'm pleased with my recent decisions to do some of those things again while I have time.

So I'll probably not make another 1075 words by midnight, but I can hope! As long as I've made 4k by tomorrow midnight (haha), I'll be on schedule for starting 5 days late XD

Who's been putting minicomics together?


The answer is me


I still need to fold 'em... but how do I know when???

Word count: 32653 words

My computer is beeping. This will not end well.

It's just a beep every now and then, not enough to be obnoxious, but enough to be annoying. Just in case this spells doom, I've backed up my NaNo novel in multiple places (and luckily I've backed up all my other fiction recently).

Eep.

well
