I think I've hit a writer's block. ): (Because...17k, and they're still just standing around??) It doesn't help that November's halfway over, but I haven't written enough for November to be halfway over. I only have 15 days left to write all the rest! *flails* It's really time to get the plot moving. I actually wrote part of something that might actually help move this thing along, but then, this part happened so I had to scrap that other part. Now Rykatu and Tekatme are still milling about. ): I haven't deleted the other bit that I wrote (it's still part of my word count), but it doesn't really fit anymore either.
I was also second guessing myself with Rykatu and Tekatme here and asking myself, would they act this way?? I think Tekatme's speech has been a bit constrained lately. I should add some more curse words to his vocabulary, hahaha. He's feeling very limited by only being allowed to use "lord".
I finally named a few of the side characters (yay!) but haven't had a chance to use those new shiny names yet. I created a new minor character yesterday to go along with a future character, but I think he might actually turn out to have a larger part, haha. I'm wondering how to bring in the other characters when I'm focusing so much on Rykatu and Tekatme at the moment. =x They weren't supposed to have so much of the focus. I was thinking of keeping the current story to just Rykatu and Tekatme's POVs and then switching gears after this first plot wraps up... but maybe I'll actually end up spending 50k words on this "first plot" haha, and then those other characters will never see the light of day. -___-; Or maybe I can just keep on with two POVs and describe the others through these two POVs... ahhh, gotta decide. This is why I'm stuck. XD; I keep starting bits from a new character's POV and then thinking it doesn't fit at all. =/
Google docs stopped working for me today, so I downloaded my NaNo story as a doc and am now writing with Word. It's 35 pages long so far. Didn't know that. :3 Would be shorter without the double line breaks between paragraphs.
( NaNo part 5 )
Goal for tomorrow. Get the plot going!!
