November. National Novel Writing Month. I'm excited, but....how the heck do I go about writing a novel? And at least 50k words? Like, seriously....I have a hard enough time writing a 4 page paper on one subject, how can I get myself to sit down and write the equivalent of that every day, and have it be all along one plot line, with the same characters and everything? I'm so unprepared, and I'm so not sure how I'm going to pull it off....
But I'm damn well going to try. I'm doing it because I want to. Because I want to set a goal that is just for myself, for right now (well, a month from now), and that I can feel satisfied with making a good effort towards. I wish I had more prep for my novel, but I have a basic idea down, and I'm hoping things will become more clear as I write it. At the very least, I have a name for my main character, so I feel good about that. I have a general plot idea down, so that's also good. I'm not going into this completely unprepared, just somewhat. razz
And tomorrow is HALLOWEEN! I get to go to school all costumed out. biggrin This year, I'm a princess again, and it's going to be fun. I can't wait. Especially because the boyfriend and I have a date to go get breakfast in costume tomorrow. It's gonna be so much fun! ^.^
But now it's off to bed, because princess-ing myself will be time consuming, which means I need to get up earlier than I would have to otherwise, especially since Abby doesn't have school tomorrow. G'night. heart
