NaNoWriMo 2012 Aftermath: 12.5.12

So NaNoWriMo is over, and I have a grand total of...

17,445 words!

...Which is no where near 50,000! :D I failed miserably!!
Yeah, on those last few days when I realized there was no way I could ever get all 50,000, I just kind of slowed down. Well, technically, I just stopped. :)
In other news, I heard The Fault in Our Stars, by John Green, is like #1 on a really important list!! :) And also, the sixth Maximum Ride manga comes out in 6 days! Yes! However, the next Heroes of Olympus comes out... next October. D: 

By the way, playing Portal too much.

NaNoWriMo--update 11.15

Nooooooooooo.

We're halfway through the month and I only have 5,782 words! It's eleven pages, but I'll have to multiply my output by TEN to get all 50,000. I know I won't be able to do it, though. Although yesterday, I wrote, like 2,000 words, so I'm pretty proud of myself. I'm recording my progress as I go, and I'm pushing for 1,000 words a day, and maybe 3,000 if I can on weekends. But yeah, as I said, I can't do this. D: Oh well, at least I'm trying. And I think it's fun! It's interesting to try to write a novel. Lots of twists and turns.

I won't be posting it on here, because it'll be too long (I hope), but maybe I'll put it up on Figment when I'm done. I still have to do a lot of editing with the earlier chapters, so I won't be able to post even Chapter One until December or at least, like, February, if I end up wanting to finish this thing.

I don't know what it'll be called yet, but I think it's an okay story! Strangely, it seems a little rushed and a little drag-on at the same time. D:

Good luck to anyone else participating!

NaNoWriMo 2012

Hey, is anyone participating in NaNoWriMo this year? November is National Novel Writing Month! Go to http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/dashboard for more information!

This is my first time trying it, and I doubt I'll be able to get 50,000 words. D: It's a lot if you put it into perspective. :( But I will still try, and next year will be better! :) So far, I have 0 words because I'm stuck on the end of my outline.

Good luck if you're participating!
