NaNoWriMo Update~
MADE IT TO 50K LAST NIGHT!!!
BEST PART: The story is still making sense!! I usually plan key scenes and other notes ahead of time, this time I was too busy fangirling on tumblr didn’t, so it added to the stress, but actually I really liked the unexpected turns the story took.
THE GOOD: After 49k, the Ianto-esque character kissed the MC “onscreen” (very briefly tho), how very Janto of them, I approve *G* I hope I played out their relationship well enough so that readers would see the kiss as natural progression and not as ‘omg, they’re gay!’ but yeah, will need a test reader.
THE BAD: This will need shitload of editing to turn into more sci-fi/fake utopia/dystopia that I intended it to be, it just feels to me like an exciting drama with a little action in a special setting… and maybe too much talking heads because as a non-native writer I’m better with dialogue than prose…
THE SAD: I realized today that someone or more of the 4 main characters and those close to them will have to be killed. I know it’s not going to be the Ianto-esque character and his boyfriend, that’s for sure! But it still makes me sad. I’ll see if I can make it more open to interpretation than outright death tho. I’ve done it before, but I’m too depressed to kill characters right now >_>
Anyway, I had hoped to be using this gif by the end of the month:
I turned into a complete nerd hehe I regret nothing
