Thank god for
31_days that's all I have to say... i've only gotten a bit more than 2,000 words though -_- so not exactly success, but def not failure! Anyway, here's today's Skip Beat! ficlet. Kyoko-centric introspection about Corn
Fairy Love
(
Because it wasn’t important whether she believed in love or not, what mattered was that the couple did and would work together to realize their dreams in each other. And that’s what she’d been getting wrong this whole time. )

Also, ganbareh! I read elsewhere that writing a ton of SB! fic is your NaNoWriMo project. Myself, I'm attempting a full-blown novel following 2+ decades of never having written anything longer than 15 pages at max, for class. ^^;; いっしょうにがんばろう!

So what's your novel about? will you be posting snippets on LJ?
p.s. you're lucky i'm taking elementary japanese right now... though I still had some trouble identifying all the hiragana letters.. must study more!

My novel is... sad, I think? It's split across times but not places. Half takes place in 17th century French Vermont and centers around a very traumatized little girl who grows up into a stunted woman who eventually is subsumed into the woods that she goes to for solace. The other half takes place nowish and centers around a dissatisfied, emotionally starved young woman living in Boston who is traveling home to Vermont for the first time in years. She herself doesn't realize how vacant she is, but over the course of solitary hike she figures it out and is subsumed into the selfsame woods.
I will post snippets as I feel comfortable with them. At the moment, I'm four days behind with writing and more than a little bit lost. Yay!
Also, 日本語はすごく面白いわよ! 楽しんでね :) And no, I'm not giving you the hiragana for all that. Mwa ha ha.

your novel sounds cool and kind of creepy.. are the woods eternal? will the two women meet? and by subsumed do you mean like daphne turning into a tree or more mononoke-ish forest spirit-esque?
and don't worry about being behind! i've actually been writing every day and i still only have like 3500 words (i've never been very prolific.. the fact that i'm writing everyday is a huge accomplishment in itself) がんばれ!
