The most interesting thing about this story so far is that I’ve realized I’m still doing the introduction to a lot of the characters. Yes, I’m near 28,000 words in and I’m still setting up. That means this story is going to be massive.

On the other hand, my editors will hate me.

My inspirational picture today is a screen shot from Blade Runner. It’s funny how certain pictures or images pop into your head when writing. The city scenes were what carried me through writing today.

Keep on Space Truckin’!

NaNoWriMo – Day Eleven

Here is day eleven!

I’m damn-proud with how much I’ve accomplished thus far. I can’t believe what a little bit of determination can get you – or in this case – me.

26,000 words! Yowza! It hasn’t even been two weeks yet!

Today’s picture – I can’t explain it. I just had a need for water imagery. I wasn’t writing anything about water, but I felt really moved by it. In result, here is today’s picture of inspiration.

Keep on Space Truckin’!

NaNoWriMo – Day Ten

Only twenty more days to go!

I got a lot done today. I busted out my laptop and it felt pretty darn good as compared to writing on my desktop. I’m hoping to have 30k done by day fourteen (Tuesday), so we’ll see how it goes!

I do have to go to Toronto on Monday and Tuesday for work, so I’m unsure how much in word count I’ll get in order to boost me to 30k. But I still have two more days to really boost that number. Let’s attempt 30k for Sunday.

Today’s picture of inspiration is not based off of the mood of the scene I wrote. It was more for the scenery itself within the scene.

Keep on Space Truckin’!

NaNoWriMo – Day Nine

“Here he comes, here comes Speed Racer! He’s a demon on wheels!”

Yeah, I don’t know.

I went to work, came home for an hour to pack up and almost fell asleep. Then I gigged a gig. Then I came home and wrote. I’m ready for bed!

But the good news is that I have all of my mini-plot points written out, so writing comes REALLY easy. The only reason why I stopped when I did is because I can’t keep my gosh-darn eyes open anymore.

Today’s picture of inspiration is actually the menu from the campus bar at my old university. (Don’t ask).

Keep on Space Truckin’!
