Im suprisingly easy and give speeches about my "power points".. um..not the same? Nevermind.

Hey Keggers!

I've been watching a lot of YouTube videos, especially I Met the Walrus.

"Everything you do, do it for peace."

Super win!
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy
23:58 / 18.11.08
I've only managed a thousand words today, which is frustrating. But hi, lateshifters--how's it going?

Oh good ol' J.L.

I havent been watching much youtube; excluding the links here on the 'lith and what people send to me or post on Lj.

I'm currently scouring the adds for work, drawing characters for inspiration for my story concept, trying to find time, place and willing participants for some photoshoots and getting ready to make at least one more batch of wine before the new year.

Hey Papers,

What's the average word count usually for a day?
 
 
Liger Null
00:17 / 19.11.08
Hi Papers!

Is this for Nanowrimo, or is it just writing in general?
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy
00:25 / 19.11.08
Nanowrimo, yeah. Average word count is about two thousand, and I was aiming for three today. Three yesterday. I should just relax and be happy I got some stuff done, but I'm a little bored with the section I'm working on and want to get to the more interesting section ahead.
 
 
Saint Keggers
00:26 / 19.11.08
So what's the word count for the average completed novel?
 
 
Liger Null
00:28 / 19.11.08
Well, if it's any consolation, I had to bail on Nano this year. Too many commitments, what with school and all.

They should make it an official year-round thing; November's just not a good time for me.

My biggest problems are: Im great with ideas and characters. I know what happens at point B (and how it all fits into point Z) but I have no clue how to fill in the getting from point A to B parts.
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy
00:33 / 19.11.08
The goal is fifty thousand words. I'm at 26275 at the moment. I'm starting to force some momentum that will carry me forward, because I can't just sit here and stare at the damned screen forever and a day.

I don't think anyone will ever read this thing, but it's a nice workout and something to build up my strength for my project next month. I want to do a bunch of tight short-short stories.

Too bad, Liger. You can always do it as a project for yourself next month...or after the holidays?
 
 
Liger Null
00:43 / 19.11.08
I'm thinking it will be a more of Summertime project. I don't take classes then and work's usually less hectic when the college kids are all out of town. But I like the sense of community I get from being part of the website and all, and I'll miss that if I do it in the "Off-Season."

On the upside, I've got about 7000 words worth of promising storyline just begging for completion.

That's my problem, too.
 
 
Saint Keggers
00:52 / 19.11.08
Oh. I thought it may have just been me.
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy
00:59 / 19.11.08
Back in a bit. Need to recharge with a shower.
 
 
Liger Null
01:08 / 19.11.08
I should be getting to bed, myself. I got work in the morning.

Goodnight Shifties!

01:09 / 19.11.08
G'night Liger!

It's cool, I'm taking it back! It's never too late for Halloween!

I am wired from late-night caffeine(and maybe, maybe, a bit of booze) and looking up the ztar. Not that I've got either the money or a burning desire to play the ztar(more and more I think this band is NEVER going to come together, gah, we never have time to practice, or more precisely we never get together to practice because the frakkin' guitarist is acting like a flake who's friggin' afraid to give it a try!), but I've been thinking about the music a lot and listening to Deadsy, which seems to be the only band that used it, and hey, it looks neat right? What's everybody else doing?

/slight bit of rant

I'm waiting for the new tenant moving in next door to me to show up and pick up his keys. Acting on behalf of the landlord can be a real drag sometimes.

After that, I'm making Mexican food leftovers for dinner and writing something weird and scandalous.

It's December now, surely there should be a Christmas shift. It's likely to last well past if it starts soon.

We had Mince Pies and Sarah Jane Adventures at midnight, to celebrate.

I hate Christmas

But Christmas loves you.

Unconditionally.

Yeah it do.

Have a mince pie, you'll feel better. G'wan!

Christmas hates my teeth.

Unconditionally.

Even that wee B12 hiding at the back there.

It's probably a bit early for this, but hey, is anybody out there?

I'm around, ya. Hanging out, about to turn in and hit the hay. Got a big day, lots of errands, need to get my good suit from the cleaners and get papers in order to fight an eviction notice on Thursday.
