Bow-tie too much? I might remove it and just give him a tie instead ... >.> hehe Or give him a fez? ... I'm giving myself 1,500 words on the word count... because Chapter Three needed more work than I realised and I think it probably evened out to that amount. I basically rewrote half the chapter. And on that bombshell, that's writing done tonight. Tomorrow, I'll begin work on Chapter Four and probably attempt to go at the very least a chapter every two days. If I can go a chapter a day even better.

Getting into the swing of things although I can't help but feel that it is missing something. The building of tension and fear is not as powerful as it was in the original/working copy ... although I suppose I am making the building slower than before Stretching it out and building up Alonzo more first. Got a beautiful first paragraph though! Will snippet it later for y'all.

Still wasting time. Fuck you procrastination >.> So close to 2k! Found this on the forums. I imagine it might make some of you chuckle and feel better about your disasters! www.nanowrimo.org/eng/node/3797953{Edit: Went back to writing just after posting this ... and OMG plot twisted already! Fook >.< Characters dramatically changed and for the better, I think? Not entirely sure! The past bits are -wow- just so very, very -wow-. Alonzo's first victim, Rebeca the farm-hand girl, just became his reason for going to the coven ... yeah ... you heard me right. Its her fault, almost. Fuck that is FUCKED UP! XD Alonzo sees letting the coven change him as a way to get away from his fathers estate so he can build a life with Rebeca. They've become a bit of an unofficial item so far! Wooooooow! EXCITED!!!}

I've been distracted too.
Mostly I have no idea what I want to write about. Several ideas have crossed my mind:
Zombies Romance novel set in ancient Egypt Germanic mythos Zombies Western Future Western Zombie Western ...
Did I mention that I watched The Walking Dead last night and it was awesome?

Write a Futuristic, Germanic, Romantic, Western, Zombie story, then. ^!^!^!^!^!^! This setting makes me excited! Except for the germanic part. It doesn't really fit with the others.

You never know. I think it'd work kind of well, depending on how it was implemented. Anyways...horror. Yeah, not really sure why I'm trying this. Only seen, like, one scary movie and the scariest two games I've ever played are Bioshock and Singularity...so, yeah, I'm really a newbie when it comes to horror. But, I'm in that mood, so might as well give it a whirl.
