NaNoWriMo

I signed up for NaNoWriMo

...

50k words in a month. 0_0 Let's see...my longest fic was Hoshi ga Hoshii desu.  That was aroud 70k words. Took me a year to write. -_- With November being a month full of midterms and project due dates, this NaNoWriMo doesn't look too doable.  But...I have an original story that I'd love to write. I hope I can at least churn out a reasonable length story. ;)

Whoa, that's a long fic. I'm not into Shaman King, unfortunately, but that must've been a lot of work. :)

I was going to sign up for NaNoWriMo, but doubt took over. I really want to tho... just that I'm afraid I'll abandon everything else to write 1667 words a day.

Good luck, if you are going to go for it!

It's weird...I'm not actually that much of a fanatic over Shaman King, but I just had something that I really wanted to write for one of the characters. :D That was basically the fic that ate my life last year. I've found that if I don't keep thinking about something, I can't write about it. I thought about that story so much!

Hm...same thing will have to go for this NaNoWriMo thing. Must be constantly thinking about the novel I'll be writing.

Gosh. I didn't even think about how many words I have to write every single day to reach that 50k mark. At most...I only ever write about 2k words a week. -_-;; And that's when I'm feeling productive.

Well, school work's still going to come first. ^^;;

47 chapters for that one character? Man, you are dedicated. XD I can see how that fic ate your life. But that's your pride and joy, right? I wish I have your determination!

Hmm, constantly thinking of one thing. I can't do that. Every cell of my being has ADHD. XDD

School work does come first, except in the moments of creative surge. *COUGH*

You're taking Linguistics and Japanese studies. How do you like them?

After I finished writing that story, I actually felt kind of lost. XD;; No more creative surges!! Yup, pride and joy...sort of. Sometimes I wonder...wow, I wrote that? And other times I wonder...what ever was I thinking when I wrote that?? There are some parts I wish I could change...but too bad. The story's already finished. I miss the characters though.

Mm. Linguistics can be frustrating at times. I really miss my professor from last semester. She was so nice. I've only had her for all my previous ling courses, so this semester was kind of a new experience. :3 I'm looking forward to next semester though, since I'm going to be taking a Japanese linguistics course. Going to be very challenging...since my Japanese isn't that great. XD;;

You're majoring in Bioengineering? Are you going to be done after next semester?
