Writing and Other stuff
I have been hard at work plotting my NaNoWriMo 2010. It is epic. Literally. There are times when I feel like I have bitten off more than I can handle, but then I look at what I have done so far (and I haven't even written anything yet) and I know that I can do this. I just need to work really hard on making sure it is all lined up for November. This is not going to be a story that I will be able to wing much. I still have some vague spots that I want to clear up before the 1st. :-) Sometimes I forget how much I absolutely love writing.
And I am trying something new this year. I am not telling anyone what my story is. I will probably put some sort of one line summary on the NaNo site. But until a first draft is completely done, no one knows. Not even Kate, and I talk to her about pretty much everything. She is my main Muse.
I had two titles that I had people on Facebook voting on, but then I was talking to Kate about them, and she said that without knowing what the story was about, both of them were good, but not really attention grabbing. And that is the main point of a title, right? To grab someone's attention and get them interested in reading the book. So I have been thinking a bit more about titles. At least working titles. And now I have a bunch of variations on a theme, but I don't know that I actually like any of them. We'll see. Once I get it narrowed down to two or three again I will ask for opinions, either here or on my facebook, so keep an eye out.
So, other than writing I have been thinking about my future a bit. Specifically the going back to school part. I have begun to think about getting an associates in computer programming. It is still just an idea, but something to ponder. If you have an opinion, feel free to throw it in. ;-)
Anyway, I don't really have anything else to say. Other than that I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED FOR THE HARRY POTTER MOVIE!!!! OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGASKJNDFOINWEOINWOIE!!!!!
