Two years, actually. I started it back in 2001. I need to pick up the pace in the future if I'm going to make a career of this.
You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

Victor, your column rules.(But I think kicking the little punk's ass would make me feel better, at least for the moment,)

All right. I'm in.
Dammit.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Victor, your column rules.
Thank ya!

Well, probably. But it would be an empty, fleeting pleasure...

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Yay, Liese!
Am, of course I want to be added to the filter.
I, unfortunately, haven't been able to get back into active LJing since the move, but I'd like to. I can't seem to get up the whatever it is I need to do it. Maybe this will be the incentive I need.

Thrive to spite them
I signed up for NaNoWriMo as well. I've never attempted anything like this so I've already accepted I'm going to write crap. Now my goal is to write 50,000 words of it.

How many words on a page?Cause I could picture pages more easily.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Depends entirely on your font and whether you're doublespacing or singlespacing or something weird. Let's say anywhere from 250-800.... which is why people use word count.
Take an average-looking page of your writing, formatted the way you usually do, and run it through your word processor's word count -- that'll give you a good enough idea to use for estimating.

Wow, there is a lot of variation...just trying to get a clearer picture. I've decided I'm going to use "Perfect" to start from, which I should probably call "Imperfect" but, you know.
