First Day of NANO
Oh whew. I fell asleep waiting for midnight to come and then when I woke and fed everyone in the house sat infront of OpenOffice staring at the blank page. My mind went blank. It usually does with the first three intro paragraphs. A friend on Nano told me to move past it and write on and thankfully thanks to her advice I am currently done with chapter one even though were short the first 2-3 paragraphs. My word count you ask. 2227!! And I plan on getting back to it in a few hours when everyone falls asleep. Woot!

Oh No!
OMG ITS TOMORROW!! Excuse me while I panic. As she runs around in circles screaming "Ahhhhhhhhh" at the top of her lungs. Too much to do between finishing outlines, character profiles and taking kids trick or treating!!

Nothing accomplished
It is soooo sad but I just finished outlining chapter 3 today. I wish I wasn't sporting this migraine because I was sure I could outline at least 12 or 13 chapters. Ah well. Off to bed with me!

yWriter
Well I decided to go ahead and try out yWriter. I've been using it for the last twenty-four hours to organize the novel I am about to write. Hopefully I will get everything I need to get done finished in the next week. I am getting excited and nervous all at once. The sad thing is; my nervousness is more of, what if I choke up after the first week, what if I forget or go completely blank, and last but not least....WHAT IF I RUN OUT OF MY STORY WRITING FUEL. Guess well have to watch and see what happens.

My Characters My Babies
Until the other night I didn't know exactly what they meant by making your characters come to life. Ohhhh I know now. I did a character profile on one of the mail MC's and she came to life right there on the paper. Bout to work on the other character profiles. Getting more excited. Also need to do up some flash cards. Keep your eye out for updates.
