And it is over...
So NaNoWriMo is over and I totally sucked with updating in here huh? Yeah. My grand total which I got somewhere around 11:45 PM last Friday night was 50,057 words. I only had to write just under 10,000 words to get the win that day so better than last year! Still a bunch but better than last year at just over 20,000 the last day!
Now, my story. I think I like it. I think the last two years I have written stories for NaNo that I would like to finish, rewrite, edit, fix, and then maybe even do something with which is much better than the first five years. four years. How many years have I been doing this? LOL First year was the epic fail fanfic which I'm still not sure I've done anything with it. *adding it to my fanfic list to finish* Then there were the two years where it was all about the therapy...or what I like to call my man hating no good lying cheating sonofabitch stories. Then there's the fanfic I wrote for Gilmore Girls which still scares me trying to write for that one but I felt Rory and Tristan needed a happy ending so it's a future fic. Too much pressure with all of the words and pop culture references and just all around sharpness of writing Gilmore Girls has slowed that one down tremendously in the finishing department. And the year where I used songs to inspire my fic...kinda had characters based on real people so nothing will ever come of that one in the future without being completely rewritten! And I have last years with a theme of falling as she pulls her life together while fixing up her great aunts old home and this year with my winter theme memories helping him save himself along with his classmates from a hostage situation. See, it always sounds better in my head and in the actual story than it does when I try to explain it. That is exactly why I HATE writing summaries.
So, the point of this post? I am a 2012 NaNoWriMo winner for the 6th year in a row and out of all of those there is only two stories I might be able to do anything with in the future! LOL Ehh, s'okay, there's those two years where I got a good month's worth of therapy which helped me tremendously!
Peace, Love, Giggles, and writing,
