I'm just going to warn you now, I plan on doing a lot of babbling during this post.
Yeah.
NaNoWriMo is over. I spent the first couple of days after November ended just really drifting, the high pace writing really took up a lot of my time and I had a lot of free time I had no idea what to do with. And I finally let my inner editor back into my life a few days ago, um, a bit nervous as to what it'll do to the lovely rambling, 71,215 word jumbled mess I wrote, so I haven't really touched my NaNo novel yet, and I think I'll leave it for a while. Maybe start working back on it oh, let's say Dec. 31st, just for the heck of it.
Which, of course, means that I have to have a new writing project to keep me busy. Actually, I have two, but one is only temporary. Ezra handed over the story our writer's group is writing, and so I've got that to write. There's this lovely little Twilight rant in one of the chapters before mine, and I love it - that and the idea for a certain Nobel Prize. I love the rules in the front of the notebook, because it proves that I'm not the only Death Note fan in the group. Not entirely sure where I'm going to take the story, I'm thinking of starting the chapter with something slightly reminiscent of a Sherlock episode, but I'll get to that when I get to it.
The other writing project I've got is this thing I thought up in the middle of November and it's rather vague, as all my ideas are, but it will keep me busy for the moment. Started off as a sort of fan fiction for a book I liked when I was younger, and then I decided I'd have a bit more fun making it an "original" piece of fiction. And because I'm tired, and I'm sure this will all make absolutely no sense in the morning, I will give you the tentative names of two main characters from this unnamed side project. Alyss, no last name, and Peter Hook. Of course, I'm sure that made it obvious what book I got inspired by.
I had planned for a nice long blog post that made some sort of sense, but I've got Doctor Who to go and watch, so this is a temporary farewell... I hope, anyway.
My friend Ezra created this blog thing where he posted his very organized NaNoWriMo novel and started posting an untitled script, so if there's anyone reading this who hasn't gone and read this, here's the link. http://thestrand21st.blogspot.com/
Go. Read. Now.
Oh, and it snowed a week ago. And yes, I realize just how late this comment is.

Snow
It's snowing. I love the snow. It makes the world look softer, as if I could deal with it. I went out in it, barefoot and coatless to dance, something that would have my sister rolling her eyes.
I shall now have to write a scene that has snow, and a lot of it.
Be careful, be safe.
