NaNoWriMo – Take Two!

How’s February 19th through to March 19th sound?

Good!

No, no, I’m not planning on doing another 50,000 words in that time. While I did accomplish a lot last month, I definitely want to take it a bit easier. As I get busier with my real-life job, I won’t have as much time to dedicate to this story as much as I want to. Instead, I’m aiming for around 20-25k words. If anything, this will be considered a half-ass attempt at NaNoWriMo.

I needed to take a bit of a break from the story because it is both physically and mentally taxing. I definitely didn’t want to jump into that exhaustive mindset again. I was thinking about another thirty-day challenge involving another project, but I really think I should focus on one for now.

I’ll also try to keep up on the site for more comic stuff. I won’t be posting daily updates like before, that’s for sure.

As for the story, I ended my last challenge with 54,126 words. Let’s aim to make it 70,000 or die trying!

Say Cheese

Keep on Space Truckin’!

NaNoWriMo – FINISHED!!!

It’s all done! I am thoroughly impressed with myself, that’s for sure.

But it’s late and I want to go to bed.

As for my picture, it’s the album I’ve listened to every day since starting from day six of my NaNoWriMo challenge.

I bring you: Green Carnation – The Acoustic Verses

NaNoWriMo – Day Twenty-Nine

One more day to go!

I can’t believe how far I’ve gotten.

Although I’m excited to continue with this challenge, I’m dying to get a real day off from it. I work on a computer for most of the day in my real-life job, so when I get home to write, my wrists are just killing me.

Regardless, this has been an incredible journey thus far.

The image of inspiration was pretty helpful for a scene I was creating. To be honest, this is a picture of mine I took a while ago in regards to how my old bedroom floor would look like at the end of most Wednesdays. (They don’t anymore. And I don’t even own that phone now!)

Keep on Space Truckin’!

NaNoWriMo – Day Twenty-Eight

Two more days to go! Today I went in public to write. It was moderately difficult to get started on it all, but I managed to get over one thousand words.

Today’s picture is me just after I wrote – playing Ski Free. . . Remember Ski Free?
