Okay Albert, this post is for you, k? ^_^
So...if you're in the Central Valley and KMPH is your local FOX station, turn it on tomorrow morning at 7:15. Our marching band is doing a fifteen-minute feature, and we're awesome, IMHO.
And, on another note, I'm doing NaNoWriMo again this year. Now I know there are a few people here who have absolutely NO idea what that is. Trust me. You will if you hang around me during November. What's WriMo? National Novel Writing Month. (
http://www.nanowrimo.org) <~That'll have all the info you need. Here's how I put it last year:
10 fingers
50,000 words
30 days
1 novel
Simple. Unless you don't have ten fingers, that is. ;) So all you have to do is write a 50k-word novel in the month of November. Easy? *nods* Quite. I did it last year, and I'm doing it again this year. Though I'm hoping to go for over 50k this time.
I've been looking at everything, and someone asked if they could rewrite a screenplay they'd already written, and it was decided that as long as they didn't copy and paste the original text, it was okay. What about if I decide to rewrite my first novel, which was intended for YA but I want it to be for adults now? Basically, I'm going to go through the thing, copy down names, major events, put the original one away, and start from scratch. I know how it's going to end, obviously, but I'm going to write toward it, see what happens. If time permits, and everything's going well, I may end up rewriting the three sequels (which are really just character backgrounds and I'd been planning on combining the four into a novel anyway--or do 1 and then 3, as the first one is about my MC). I just decided that since my goal is to have sent a manuscript out by the end of the semester, rewriting my first novel from scratch (it was my best idea anyway) would be perfect. :)
Happy now Albert? LOL. Later man. :)
