Wow. I wrote, like 2000 and something words today, and I feel totally dry. I don´t know you manage to do this. o.o

[kippurbird]

Neither do I. Basically I've been throwing things at the characters to avoid them having sex. Because I know once they do that it'll be all fluff and sex and fluff and sex and no conflict.

Damn, girl. I thought I was doing pretty good especially since I forgot to write yesterday, and I'm only doing mini_nanowrimo!

I think I kind of hate you. But in a good, awestruck way.

[kippurbird]

Mini Nano? Is that like half the word count?

I'd hate me too, if I were you. Personally I'm just damned shocked.

[karaotter]

It's actually 100 words (or more, depending on the commitment). The point being to get people into the habit of writing every day. In some ways it's a lot less stressful than NaNo because you don't have to write about the same thing everyday as long as you're writing. It's also good for people like me who go into NaNo thinking that they can do this and then get so freaked out by the 50,000 word finish line that they just lose all inspiration and stop writing.

[kippurbird]

That's true! Writing every day is what helps and makes it into a good habit. Though there isn't a rule that says you have to write the same thing the entire time through, just get to 50,000 words.

Oh, honey bunches of oats, I am sure you will have passed me by the end of the day. I am UTTERLY burned out.

[kippurbird]

D:

I'll help you brainstorm when I get on AIM, how's that?

[canadianevil]

Okay. I need it. ;_;

[kippurbird]

We shall brain storm muchly.

Me too as I'm trying to develop the someone wants to hurt Jono plot as opposed to the Can there be sexxors nao? plot.

Also, I figured out what Laurence was up to.

[jeriendhal]

I am shamed. I've actually been in a writing drought the past couple of weeks, though I should get back to work on Andrea's Story or The Ship.

Sigh.

[kippurbird]

It happens.

Maybe you should try something completely different?

[rurounitriv]

NaNo wants you to do at least 50,000, not only 50,000.

[kippurbird]

Shush. I want to try and actually finish the story within the word count maybe a little bit over, so that way I won't be completely rambling.
