NaNoWriMo filter!

[timepiececlock]

I will be posting bits of my attempt at National Novel Writing Month. Who wants in?


By agreeing to be under the filter, you understand:

1. I will be posting sections of my writing as I go along. These will be under an LJ-cut.

2. As per the advice of the website, I won't be editing as I go, so it could be quite terrible and below the moderate standards for punctuation you typically expect from me.

3. I may cry.

4. At some point in this month you will have a non-binding friend obligation to give feedback of some kind, even if it's to tell me that my story is "surprisingly lame". As this is non-binding obligation, the only thing to happen if you don't comment sometime during November is that you will be eaten alive by your own guilt. With store-brand cheese.

5. You may have to hug me if I cry.




P.S. Listen to Common Rotation's "Rock Me Obama", because I love it.

I MUST STOP DEBATING THE ATLA FINALE IN A DIFFERENT LJ WINDOW AND DO WRITING INSTEAD. TELL ME TO STOP DEBATING THE AVATAR FINALE AND WRITE INSTEAD.

[boosette.livejournal.com]

STOP DEBATING ATLA IN ANOTHER WINDOW AND GET TO WRITING INSTEAD.

YOU WON'T REGRET IT I PROMISE.

AND THE FINALE DISCUSSION WILL STILL BE THERE IN DECEMBER.

Since I wrote that comment I figured out the male sidekick/love interest character. But my protagonist is harder!

Include me in -- I know what a struggle this thing can be.

Glad to have you! Now I have to actually write tonight... I have a scene already in mind. I was going to do a fanfic, but I'm thinking of maybe trying to write something original. I looked at the Fantasy Dare[s] thread on the NaNo website and it's made me feel like maybe the best way to tackle this is to let myself be a bit silly. I might be less self-conscious with my own characters rather than having to stick to the limits of pre-made characters. On the other hand...fanfic is such a familiar sandbox.

Hit me with your worst, Big Mama.

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

You're a real tough cookie.


(with a long history)

[akavertigo.livejournal.com]

Of breaking loony brains like the one—hey! HEY! I see what you did there.

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

And I approve of it.

[akavertigo.livejournal.com]

Oh, right, like you know what's good for you.

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

All the good things in life are bad for you.

[akavertigo.livejournal.com]

Untrue!

But I’m much too busy with this bacon-on-bacon with mayo to argue this now.

[dungeonwriter.livejournal.com]

Sure!

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

Check.

[mathkid.livejournal.com]

I'd love to read it. =)

[catystorm.livejournal.com]

Yay! Mor Nano foaming!

(I'm doing it, too! But I haven't gotten around to posting about it on my journal.)

I feel like I got put on the filter without even saying I wanted in. Which I totally do. :-b

FEEDBACK WILL DO.

SONG WILL LISTEN TO WHEN HAVE HEADPHONES.

good luck again!

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

LOL. you totally did. I was adding others and I said 'what the hell' and added like 6 people who didn't even ask.

Keeeep meeee. I barely exist on the Internets nowadays (junior year of high school just comes totally out of left field) and my life is a black, black hole called school, but I cannot participate in NaNoWriMo and am thus willing to content myself with other people's NaNo.

It's actually really hard to find other people's NaNo work to read; for understandable reasons, they all lock it. It's like feeling locked out of the library, you know.
