November is National Novel Writing Month, so Belle and I were going to write novels. Actually, I think that And was to, but she hasn't so far, I think. We are/were doing the NaNoWriMo Young Writers Program, which lets you set your own word-count goal. However, the real goal is 50,000 words. Belle decided to stop at 22,00 or so (she kinda quit :(((((((( ). I totally get why though. Now I'm at 40,924 words and 5,801 words behind. I wish I could get some ideas to get my book going. I guess I should have done that a long time ago, but I haven't really gotten to my climax yet. I'm getting there, but I have like 30,000 words of what my mom calls "character developement". Ick. I would never read a book where the whole thing is character developement. (or at least I would never like a book like that)
So my book is one of those books where the chapters alternate characters. Its all in third person because I think that writing in first person is harder. The problem with this is that I've suddenly liked writing from one of my characters perspectives a lot more than the other, so I have to bring her back into the story by forcing out some ideas.
I am going to end up staying up till midnight a lot so I can get this done. Then my dad can yell at me for staying up too late. Big whoop.
oh well.
DUDE! I want to do NaNoWriMo too!!!! :OOO how do you join?
