Taed's going to do his own mini December NaNo. I don't know if he planned on trying to make it into a bit of a community thing, but I'll be joining him with various bits of editing, revising and actual writing. You can do a NaNo whenever, Evern! Yeah, except for one exam I'm off school as of today until January 9th, so I'm going to try and write as much as I possibly can in that period. I have a few half-finished short stories I want to complete, and of course Blacklisted is starting up again, so I'll have more than just one project to work on, and I think that will keep me from getting bored/tired. Yeah, besides editing Phantoms and writing Blacklisted I'm going to be alternating between short stories and script writing. I think that's the best method since I've learnt to switch between styles easily. What we really need to do is plant bombs in our houses and then give the other person the detonator. And then set a daily target of 1,000 words.

That's what I did quite a few times this month.

That's what I did quite a few times this month. I think writing 50,000 words on one thing for me is counter-productive. I've think I got to 50,000 on the various things I've been writing for November, but my around 40,000 on Phantoms was probably just right. Otherwise I think I would have burnt-out.

Sounds good.
I'm gonna finally start editing Red Rover, if I can stand to read it now, and otherwise work on various projects.
Should be an interesting use of my time. Between looking for jobs and apartments.

And CONGRATS Tam! Your first NaNo win :] Definitely nuts but loads rewarding

Yeah. I just need to step away from Binary for a while. Stop trying to force something that isn't coming. New ideas! Come to me, I COMMAND YOU!

Snap... Only I have no idea where to go from here... I'm sick of this NaNovel. I've led myself into a bit of a ditch halfway between 'I don't know anything about this shit' and 'God, damn it I've read this before I gotta stop this copying' >.< I need new inspiration to get something done around college work but... damn... getting ideas is feeling impossible D:

Ah well I found the NanoWriMo thread, that shouldn't have taken me as long as it did. >.>
I made a post in the Projects section for my DnD campaign as it shapes up, but I wanted to give myself a kick in the pants and get back into writing by joining NaNoWriMo this year. I'm thinking about reworking a previous story into the DnD world that's been forming in my head and overhauling a lot of things I don't like about it anymore.
But anyways! I'm glad to be doing this, and I figured you guys would give the best support. I'm sad it has been as long as it has since I last posted with things getting in the way but after reading two book series of 10+ books in them that urge to write has hit me again very strongly. I'm almost thinking "Fuck Halo 4, I'm doing NaNoWriMo!" ...Almost.

Huh, well I guess that's fine. If anything couldn't someone else just make it even with a small turn out?
