Damnit, one of my main characters is killing dogs.

They attacked him, but still.

I figured since I don’t really have time to post this month, I’d keep you entertained with crappy quizzes.

Do you ever feel like  your style is constantly changing even if you manage to keep your voice and tense correct?

I feel like depending on the scene, my writing style changes and that throughout its never been overly consistent. I’m almost afraid to read it again next month for fear of being witness to the crap I’ve produced.

And on top of that, I’ve got a lot of my supporters asking me to read it when I’m done.

Why does no one post to distract me from my writing!!!

Holy Crap!

This should totally be on my Christmas List!

Why do I do this to myself. I had all day to get my words in. I was home by 3:00 and yet I didn’t start seriiously writing until 11:00 or later.

I guess maybe I needed a break from work, NaNo, and everything else in between, but still, now I’m struggling to get my words out and my eyes are already glazing over. I could do it if I didn’t care at all about what I was writing, but even though I’ve learned to accept that I’m writing crap, I still want to put forth effort.

Argh… I guess I am my own Sadist to my internal Masochist.

Words Wasted in this post: 109

I took the afternoon off work and totally blew the free time by lazing around the house, watching bad movies (do not watch Satan’s School for Grils) if you can avoid it. Unless someone has a gun to your head or is threatening your first born, you should really change the channel. And to think I recorded it on ReplayTV.

So, anyway. I’m staying up late as I’ve decided to get as close to my minimum for the day. I don’t want a second day of not meeting my quota on this. I feel bad enough that I missed it once. I want to use the weekend to get ahead, not catch up. I’m a little lagged right now, maybe I hit the week two wall a little later than most since I’m writing a parallel story. I dunno. I’m trying to get the music to inspire me, but it’s not helping too much right now (obviously).

Anyway, just wanted to let you folks know that I’m still workin’ it, and I’m not giving up. I’m still confident that I can finish. I just need to stay focused and dedicated.

I just wish I could go back and add stuff sometimes (I’ve vowed that I will not go back at all anymore out of fear of getting sucked into editing by accident). I have some stuff I’d love to go back and happen, but for now, I’ll just make passing references to them in the present and when I go back to edit, I can flesh them out.

Good luck NaNoers and you non-NaNoers, have a relaxing weekend.

I’m sick, I’m taking a break from writing, and everyone else is doing it… so here it is.
