Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

Thrive to spite them

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.

“Not dead yet!”

Okay, the NaNo site SUCKS dead moose cock.

Still true today.

Inspired by all y'all writing on NaNoWriMo I am up early to work on my story. It feels good, so thanks.

And YAY!!!

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?

“Not dead yet!”

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.

COMPLETELY.

“Not dead yet!”

It only took over a week, but the author tab is back up on NaNo and the site finally seems to be loading at faster than hamsters driving the connection speed.

I would be more excited about that if I had actually written more than a few sentences this week.

“Not dead yet!”

S'okay. I might have written more if the story hadn't taken a left turn that left me doing the contemplation thing for several days trying to figure out how to allow the turn, but steer the story back to where it needed to be.

Because this turn did not want to be ignored.
