haaaa....ha...haha...hahahaa!!
Ok so I have 62k right now and I'm feeling pretty good right about now. I've written 2k today so far, its 11:20, and I still feel like I have at least another 1000 in me! Granted, I would ave gotten alot more done if I hadn't gotten on youtube and talked to tgame but you know, it was worth it. He's. . .really. . .out there sometimes. Doesn't care a wit what words he uses or what questions or comments come out of his mouth. He sure doesn't.

I was disappointed with NM btw. Not enough Jake + too much lovey dovey mushy Edward and Bella = no bueno. *gag* srsly Edwards just a creeper. . . and he's gross. And a pansy to boot. Can we just vote him out of the series? Yesh? kthxbye

Yeah, so I only wrote like 1k last night. I didn't really feel like it and plus I feel alot better since I've already reached 50k. I'll try to get at least 2.5k tonight, but todays also youth and I gotta drive Mary n her brothers so that means I'll have to leave earlier and less writing time. But oh wells. I just gotta write more before I leave I guess! It's cold outside. We built a fire. All three cats are cuddling together on the couch, it's one and I haven't had lunch and probably won't today. And I still haven't started writing. Sigh.
I'm cited for New Moon, all the previews look really snazzy so I'm cited :D *keke icon yesh, true stuff*

jking!

Yeah, just kidding. Last night I stay up and through my stubborn will power I made it to 50k ^_^ I just couldn't not reach 50k on the 15th. *pokes icon*
Say no to Inner Editors

pooy

Well poo. I didn't make the 40k that I wanted to for day 15.... :( sad. Hopefully by tomorrow I can crank it out. I really wanna use my other icon I made last year :( I think I'm at like 46k right now . . . I'm just done writing for today. There for a couple hours it was going really smooth but then I just lost my steam. I don't wanna force it or nothin so I'll just stop for the night.
(and yes I know I fail at updating this like I wanted to)

20k YAY!

Yay 20k! 20k on the fifth day isn't too bad right? I know its slower then my past times, but hey, this years been a little different and today especially has been draining. I had to twist and pull and yank as hard as I could to get every last one of those words to reach 20k! So yeah, i'm gonna get some sleep now.

Fail

 Oh geez. I fail at keeping journals...I've fallen so far behind even my personal journal uuggghhhh.
WEEllll Nano is going ok I suppose last night I hit 12k. I guess that means today I'll be hitting 15k. . . slow and steady seems to be this years theme. I still haven't made a cover for it but I think I'm going to stick with The Myth of Observation as the title for now. That was the first title I came up for it back in october so I guess I'll keep it unless something better strikes me. I wanted to get some cushion here on the first week but I really don't see that happening . . . it's super hard to write more then 4k a day. Especially since Bree can't be on all the time, so I can only ww her like twice a day if that. And this weekend she'll be gone :( what in the world will I do!? 
Tonight's church, tomorrow night I'm goin to hangout with vsong and jbyrd to watch a movie and friday I'll prolly be with jpit and Beth to finish Gone with the Wind that we started like two months ago. Idk if these plans will all follow through. . .but this is what my friends have asked of me. We'll see. It really depends on if I can knock out my word count early those days I guess. 
I've been writing 1k in the morning, and almost 2 in the afternoon and then finishing up at night time. It's just taking me forever to do that. Which sucks. Oh well, it's not going terribly and the characters seem to be working with me pretty well so that's good.

Seven Minutes and Counting

 Mmkk...the count down is almost over....and I'm not panicking at all surprisingly....not "panicking"  . . . a little nervous but it's more excitement then anything.  I definitely going to try the 7 for 7 rewrite first...I already have a scene in mind to try at midnight. Travis is asleep, Bree is too I guess, she won't answer my text. Silly GURL! If she's asleep she is going to GET IT. Geez....I mean come on :P lol. 

Anyways. . . I might try to post later when I'm done writing for the night, if I don't i will in the morning. ttys!

 Blah blah blah...blah...blah...blah. SO, it's this friday huh? . . . That's....kinda creepy. I believe I'm going to be playing risk with some friends that day, go to the fall festival at the church that day and start writing at midnight.
What will I be writing?
Who knows!

Alright. I fell off the face of the earth. I'm back!

 
I hope I am anyways. My plan is to post something everyday for the duration of November (NaNoWriMo) I have yet to document my NaNo experience with a day to day entry and I'd like to try it. Plus, I KNOW it will give me a chance to procrastinate! Yay! (I know I'll be doing alot of this instead of actually writing, it goes hand in hand)

I'm waiting to hear back from a couple of jobs, I hope I get one of them. It's needed, but I can't do anything more then apply and pray I get a job. Otherwise, I'm just waiting it out unfortunately =/ 
And I have a boyfriend, so . . .that'll be interesting. He's already been fully informed (from day one of knowing him basically lol) that in November, I will disappear and become a rare find indeed like the Yeti or Big Foot. Ha. I plan on going over this all again with him very soon just to be sure he knows he won't see me as much. But it's still gonna be different with him b/c I'll WANT to see/talk to him so he's going to be a distraction. I'll get over it, I know, but it's still a change.
What else? Oh, I have no idea what my story is going to be about. Not one little clue. But I do think I'm going to kill the MC. I don't know how that'll work, after she/he dies, as far as storytelling goes. . . but I saw something on the boards and it made me think of that, so I'mna gonna try it. 
Yeah, I think that's it. 
Oh, I have alot more church now. Since I've switched churches this year there are more events and services that I go to and I have more friends, who like to txt me. That'll be another distraction. I'm actually thinking about putting my phone away every day while I try to write, I think that would be a good idea. Or change my voicemail maybe? Idk what I'll do, but I do know it's really hard to ignore talking to friends!
Sunday- church, eating with fam, cell group at the house at six.
Monday-Free (unless job situation changes of course)
Tuesday-Chores usually, or hanging out, youth service at seven (always driving someone so that's more time)
Wednesday- every other Wednesday I teach a 3-5yr old class so sometimes I have to prepare stuff for that before church (like snacks n activities) church starts at seven, gotta be there at six-thirty though.
Thursday-Free.....Friday's and Thursdays are always busy for some reason. . . 
Friday- Babysitting sometimes. If I do it's always late. Otherwise there's card playing with the family that lives in town.
Saturday-Free, but somehow always busy. Running around n junk. And then the next morning is Sunday so I don't stay up late at all.

Not too bad, but I'll definitely be changing some things. We'll see how it goes! 
Hopefully I'll have some new icons next time I post.

Oh, PS, I will TRY to keep up with other ppls post, I feel horrible I haven't been for...well, forever, but I'll try my best. Sorry!

The Forest of Hands and Teeth

 Wow. Ok, I'm 150 pages in and I can't finish it. I read reviews and I'm assuming everyone dies in the end, people say they hate the end. Well I skipped to the end

*SPOILER*

Mary reaches the ocean and there's a man who lives in a lighthouse and theres bodies everywhere on the beach. Ew. So I flipped back a few pages and her brother we think dies trying to save her and then a little bit before that she leaves Harry and Cass and Jacob in the forest somewhere? And just before that she kills Travis who has turned into a zombie. Ok. After I read this sentence " I bury a scythe in his neck,shuddering as I feel it slice through his spinal cord." I had to put it down. Just about gagged. I have way to much of an active imagination to read a zombie book, NEVER AGAIN. I'm hoping I can return it to Barnes and Noble maybe, even though I didn't get it there. (Got it as a free book from RandomBuzzers) Ugh, gross, now I want brain bleach. Like, really bad.

uhurufreedom.org (aka, I'm 'published')

    Not gonna lie. Kinda nervous about it. It's nothing like anything I've ever written and a little more personal I guess. Though it's not based on me or anyone I know, just a general idea I got from talking to different people and comparing stories.

Wow I haven't updated. Haven't had internet! It's been crazy. Anyways, I finished NaNo with 75067, I'm reading my Newblet's NaNo at the moment and the other night I read Bree's. It was fantastic! ^_^ hehe.
I'm so embarrassed about my NaNo, honestly it's just . . . idk. UGH idk. I don't wish to talk about it right now so I'll stop.
Hmm what else, oh I said I'd tell you what I thought about Twilight.
I liked it. Mikey makes the movie awesome ((GO BIKE GO BIKE!))
Anyways . . . I sure hope I get wireless internet at my house soon. Because this is ridiculous.
Thanksgiving was a blast, besides the shattered heart that is . . . not gonna go there. Besides I'm being dramatic, though I was in a foul mood for the entire day *grumble grumble* I got lost in the boonies of Arkansas with my sixteen yr old cousin, he was driving. Lol. . . oh. . . my . . . goodness. No really he drove quite nicely but I distracted him apparently because I talk too much. But it's not my fault I have such good stories to tell! Stories involving crushes are always fun (this was before the terrible news) and we played spades one night and me n him were partners and the game ended in an explosion because his brother was accusing us of cheating because we were texting DURING THE SHUFFLES because I was all bummed out about the terrible news. And the thing was, we were losing the game so why the heck would we be cheating?! So the siblings got mad at each other and everyone huffed off to their seperate corners when the game was over. Now that was immature but oh well.
I'm looking at manga pictures right now its fun.

It's a mad dash, and it's only my family moving, my aunt came over t his morning so thats good. anyways I don't know when I can get on again, i'll try really soon, and i saw that I have emails frmo ou guys but i can't read em yet. . . . so I'll do my best to get back to everyone!!

Behind last years numbers and what are your characters doing right now?

Somehow I have become super competitive with my past self and I really wanted to reach 50k sooner then the 12th, but that's today and I'm just barely at 40k . . . and I've yet to decide if I'm going to shoot for 10k today and at least tie myself . . .or what. Idk.
And I've been slinking around the procrastination station on the boards and I found this question
What are your characters doing right now?
So I answered and got this:
Toby and Colleen are snuggled together in an oversized chair
Rob is in a boring King meeting
Holly is about to discover that her father has been murdered
Jesse . . .only God knows where that jester has wandered. Maybe he's at the nightclub AGAIN -_-
Annual Prince is up to no good sneaking around now, Holly's kingdom.

and just last night I found out that Holly's father had been murdered, well the reports are he died mysteriously from PROBABLY a heart attack, but I know the truth. Rob and Colleen were going to the summer court AGAIN for some official meeting (really Rob just being sneaky and visiting his lil hot headed gf Holly) and the meet the Annual Prince there and I'm like what the heck is he doing there? And he tells them the king has died. O_O You sneaky little characters!! What in the world is going on!?
I don't even know and I'm the author, go figure.

because the world is lacking in excerpts I'm posting this.

sitting just under 35k, and I haven't written anything today. But I don't ahve to work tmorrow which is good and bad but oh well . . .plus I know exactly what I'm going to write tonight so I'm glad. Sometimes it's the hardest trying to pick what to write/finding something I want to write.

um I was gonna say something. . . and it was really important . . . dang what was it?
Idk maybe it'll come to me after I do the excerpt.
So this is a complete fluff scene and a word eater too cuz really there's no point for them to be at the club but who cares!
excerpt )
//
...um yeah still drawing a blank on that super important thing . . . so anyways. I have the strangest urge to edit something. Like I'm craving a real tough concrit . . . I wanna help my friend with something she wrote but I really ought to write a lil on my nano first . . . so final feelings as I enter dreaded week two: Feelin pretty good actually, dead tired from moving but not so shammy <----(((and I freakin love how I STILL, even tho I'm 19, have a problem writing/typing M when I mean B or vice versa. >_< I have ALWAYS done this and I don't know why, and yes I WRITE this problem too, it's not just with a keyboard))). STUPID FREAKIN BUG BUZZING AROUND MY HEAD! Ahh!! and I'm sitting in the car! Ok dang, GO AWAY! ok this isn't working I'll ttyl.
