Now THIS is a freakin' update.
Nov. 26th, 2005 04:16 amBooyah, mofos!
That's right - I'm almost caught up to the pace. Holy crap. I'm finally hitting my stride with this novel, over the past few days - I actually think the story's going to go significantly over 50K. I think it's a little (okay, a LOT) front-heavy at the moment, too - the action from 15,000 to 30,000 words needs to be maybe a third as long, or shorter, as it is right now. But that's fine - slogging through that mess is what gave me a lot of the plot details I needed to get to the good stuff. NaNoWriMo works wonders, I'm tellin' ya.
If I can, I'm going to wrap this thing up within the next couple of days (writing instead of studying? Hell, yes!) so I can concentrate on an essay and general exam-studying from Monday-ish until the end of the first week of December.
Okay. Bedtime now. (Just typed "Bedtown." I think that's a sign.)
