So... I've mostly given up on NaNoWriMo. I mean, I started this thing, and I will try to get it done in a month, but I think it's more realistic to expect it to be done, rather than 50,000+ words. So it may turn into a novella or a novelette or something. (Is it sad that I still have no idea what the diffrence between the two is, even though I've asked like, 294930482908 million times?)

Bah. I am scornful of my own willpower and determination. Bah, I say. BAH.

Shame on you. You should not give up! Hell, LAST YEAR I gave up! And I had like ... 1000 words tops. This year? I have 8344 right now (I'm on schedule~!).

Seriously, WRITE GIRL. If I can do this, SO CAN YOU! And I'm the laziest writer ever!

I didn't even bother registering or anything. I'm just using it as motivation to write something.

But I am lazy! And not inspired! And not really all that motivated! I wibble in the face of NaNo!

I am ashamed! Look! I am shamed!

Girl, registering is more of a motivation than anything! They send you letters and are all "you should be here" or something.

T_T jooooin. You can still do it! I HAVE FAITH IN YOU!

(and girl, my inspiration? I just went off of one of those "what if" scenarios. mine is about Jesus coming back to life in this day and age XD)

Yes, but then when I am not where I should be I am sad, and suddenly want to curl up in a ball in a hole and cry. This is not motivation! It is masochism, I tell you!

I have a story idea. I mean, the little bitty plot bits need to be ironed out, but I've got the bare bones, and all. It's about four runaways who don't get along, and the house that does naughty things to them to make them all come to terms with each other. (And not naughty in that way, you perv. *was thinking it too. >.>;;*)

damn T_T and here I thought it was erotic.

DO IT. Just think of it this way: You have 25 days to write 50000 words. That's only 2000 words a day! That isn't that bad, love! I have faith in you!

>.>;; Sometimes it is! The house locks two boys into a room together and the way they come to terms with each other is by sleeping together! Sorta. They're kinda youngish, but they make out and there's some touching involved and suffice to say that it's hot.

*coughs*

I should do it. But I am lazy! I will definitely keep writing it though. I may not make it all the way to 50,000 words with this one, but I want to at least finish it.

DO IT!

Or, what you can do, is this year be all "I'm doing 25000" and then NEXT year push it up to 50000.

No! Don't give up! Keep on trucking!

I figure, if I can edit--and oh, how I am editing--pretty much anything is possible.

*pets* Ah, editting.

I have not given up entirely just given up on actually meeting the word count. >.o I will finish the story if it kills me!
