NaNoWriMo: Day 4
Word Count: 496

I will not panic, I will not panic, I will not panic ...

I will, however, kick the shit out of netscape if it doesn't stop crashing. Argh! And yes, Outlook, if you don't stop it with the infinite slowness of doom, I shall smite you, too!

I need coffee.

Trivia factlet of the day: The Lemon from U2's Zoo TV tour is stored in pieces in three different warehouses in Belgium.

"The all-purpose short sleeve white t-shirt (Represented here by a map of Belgium)" The NaNo people are on the special crack, yo.

I need a title for my NaNovel. Aaarrrrrgh.

Discovered this weekend that That Blasted Rod Stewart Song still makes me sniffly. I hate my brain.

Also, people on the NaNo page who are going "Argh! I only have x-thousand words"? Bite. Me.

Dear Self

What you should be thinking about:

  • Your NaNovel

What you shouldn't be thinking about:

  • Marcus/Lee war!drabbles;
  • Marcus/Lee anything;
  • Marcus/Draco BLC smut;
  • Marcus/Draco cuteness;
  • young!Marcus&baby!Draco adorableness of Dooooom;
  • Harry/Draco;
  • Harry/Oliver;
  • Harry/Marcus (WTF?);
  • Draco/Oliver (ditto);
  • Strange Love (Why now, for fuck's sake?);
  • Assorted randomness.

No love,
You

Meh.

On the good side: got more feedback for Evitar, which is making me feel a lot better. It's nice to realise that I actually am improving as a writer.

Looking at the NaNoWriMo profiles, man, there are some serious cheaters over there. There's one woman with over 16,000 words done, which I can believe, but there's a guy who's already got 23,000 despite only joining yesterday, and there's another person claiming 51,000. I refuse to believe anyone actually managed to write that much in three days.

Vali's been complaining that all the people doing NaNoWriMo novels are all doing glorified slashy Block rip-offs with glittery gay cowboy hippie vampires and the like, but all the excerpts I've read on the site so far have read like "She's Come Undone" wannabes. Meh. I'd rather have glittery cowboys, personally.

Strange Love (Why now, for fuck's sake?);

Yo, have you thought about writing that? You've got a plot and characters worked out for it, after all, and I find that really helps. (I changed my mind about which story to write on Nov 1, and I'm very glad I did.)

Coffee. Sounds good. *wander off to make some*

Don't feel bad, yo, this is what my brain is saying to me:

Me: Novel.
Brain: Trading Spaces porn!
Me: No! Novel!
Brain: Butbut they're groping each other!
Me: Oo - NO! Novel!
Brain: Poooooooooooorn.
Me: ....what novel? Heh.

Well, feel better. You could be like me. Signed up...weeks ago. As yet. Have no plot. Have no words. None. Have instead been dling Smallville episodes and going oooo...sparkly. And making SV icons. Yes. Is it the fourth already? Oh. Damn.
