Flipping heck. It's been ten days since last I diaried (shhhh that's totally a word now).

( So, what has happened in the last ten days? )

This entry is a backdated entry from one of my handwritten journals. Events recorded here happened some time ago.

It's days like this where I feel like I could manage 100k for NaNoWriMo. I managed to write a whopping 4681 words today, putting my total up to 32,324. If I was to write at least 3760 words a day between now and the end (so, my goal of ( Read more... )

I had a meeting in work at 5pm about the new Christmas layouts so there was none of the usual cleaning palaver. It turns out that the kid of some girl who came to my till when it was super busy grabbed some chocolate off one of the ( Read more... )

It be NaNoWriMo day the sixth! This afternoon my stats are as follows...

Chaos: 3442
Soul: 4136
Corn-Cob: 4063
Total Written: 11,641
Total Remaining: 78,359/90,000

I'm hoping to get another 2000 words done before the end of the day. I still won't be on par according to my 90k goal (I should be at 18,000 words today) but meh, I just need to keep ( Read more... )

Chaos: 3121
Soul: 3325
Corn-Cob: 2052
Total Written: 8462
Total Remaining: 81,538/90,000

I should actually be at 15000 words today, but I've been a bad, bad WriMo. Yesterday I didn't write at all, and the day before I simply didn't write enough to reach my 9000 words goal. With my wordcount today being as it is, I'm on track for doing a regular ( Read more... )

Chaos: 1710
Soul: 1434
Corn-Cob: 1892
Total Written: 5036
Total Remaining: 84,964/90,000

I'm a wee bit behind today, as you can see, due mainly to my own procrastination. If this was an ordinary NaNoWriMo where I was doing 50k I'd be alright - I'd be a full day ahead of myself - but since I'm aiming for 30k per book, I really need to get a move on ( Read more... )

They say if you travel down 367 miles from the northernmost point of the M1 on a windy April the first night, with a particular cloud arrangement in the sky (my knowledge on this is hazy but I'm quite sure one must be shaped like a crocodile), stop off on the field to your left and then cry to the heavens that your toenails are ingrowing, you'll ( Read more... )

As soon as Kevin strode out into the classroom and disrobed himself, he saw the same expressions of bafflement cross the faces of the art students, one by one. Not bafflement as in 'what a horrible looking creature; his elbows are positively vile!' - he hoped - but more one of genuine confusion. These looks said 'why is he there?', 'why are we here ( Read more... )

And floating through darkness, the faint sound of a clarinet. Gemini lifted her head for just a moment, listening to the ephemeral notes dance around the sounds of the night. In her state of half-waking it was simply a strange composition to her; probably Atlas having a late night rehearsal. She didn't put it down as unusual, although it was. Her ( Read more... )

So, as you can see, I'm off to a fantastic start! I was going to start at midnight like I did last year but I actually went to bed immediately as NaNoWriMo began. This morning I was awake of my own accord at about 8am, and at quarter past the hour I got up and ( Read more... )
