So I'm current that most of you know that this month is National Novel Writing Month Contest. I'm only writing this for the people who don't know, so people who do know of it should currently scroll down. In this month, you write a novel, the goal being quantity moreso than quality. A bit bad I know, but it helps future writers be able to budget and plan their time. So the goal is 50,000 words by November 30th. So...
In honor, I'm gonna throw out a tidbit and if y'all wanna see more, I'll start posting it along in the LJ for y'all to read and critique and especially enjoy. So cheers!

The junior looked down in front of him, the smokers sucking in their nicotine. In his peripheral vision, he saw some lollygagging students walking out of the building. One kid in particular caught his eye. A lean and handsome freshmen. The kid was in Alexander’s most recent class, Cultural Anthropology. The two had gotten to know each other pretty well, sitting next to each other during class. Not many would sit next to the freshmen for various reasons.
“Hey there Troy… Heading to lunch?” Alexander spoke out of the blue, his deep baritone voice spooking the smaller boy. Troy turned around, obviously still a bit startled.
“Oh, hey there Alex! I didn’t even see you there!” Troy spoke breathlessly, his voice a bit higher than Alexander’s. He smiled warmly, giving the jock a drop in his stomach. He didn’t really understand it, but every time he saw, his stomach would tighten.
