So far I've managed to ramble for 750 words about the heroine and I haven't gotten to the plot, which is good because all I know is there will be vampires and magical creatures who will need my protagnoist's help since she's Special (she's an empath with a touch of Second Sight)but she's got a steady boyfriend, no real hang ups about sex, and works in bar. She will also spend the requisite amount of time describing her cute outfits.
You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Oh askye, I love this description so much, I'm sitting here giggling like a little girl.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

This is the best part.
a modern-day take on Rumpelstilskin (with a few other fairy tales thrown in for good measure).
This is not only my meat, it's filet frelling mignon!

I just started reading Sookie Stackhouse and she has relationship issues, with the whole telepath thing. And also she and Anita spend a bunch of time describing not so cute outfits.
So I thought if I'm going to do this I'd need to hit all the key parts to writing vampire mysteries with plucky heroines.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Inspired by all y'all writing on NaNoWriMo I am up early to work on my story. It feels good, so thanks.

I only got a paragraph or so done, but it was good to reread the story so far and realize that I still like it. (Even if I'm horrible with plot and not sure what to do next, but I'll hold off on that shame spiral for the moment.)

I'm only 1800 words of disjointed ramblings and no plot in sight, but that's keeping in the spirit of NaNoWriMo. right?

Well, while still slow as hell, at least the update box on the upper right hand corner of the main page is now operational, so updating word counts shouldn't be such a pain in the arse.

Because books.
