jackwabbit: (NaNoWriMo)
[personal profile] jackwabbit
Ok, ok, ok!  I'm in already!  The itch to try NaNoWriMo was bad enough when [livejournal.com profile] lfvoy led the way, and when [livejournal.com profile] gemsong got in on the act, my temptation level skyrocketed and my competitive drive got kicked into second gear.  Still, I was unsure.  But when PJ Haarsma tells a kid to "KEEP ON WRITING: WRITE, WRITE, WRITE, AND REWRITE", well, I must obey the Peej, even if he wasn't talking to me.

Fifty thousand words in thirty days?

I'm in.  God help us all, but I'm in.

Gee, thanks, PJ.  Thanks a lot.

For the record, though-this video interview of you by your young friend rocks-way cool.  Check it out, people!

When I get my profile officially set up (I only registered so far), I'll head over and buddy you. I might check out the book, too, but I don't know if I'll have time to read it before this big shindig starts. As for the dark side, not me...All Jedi, All The Time. ; )

(But Luke did turn dark side for a while...and what about Luuke, the clone Skywalker, and...ok, requires more thought.)

You can do it! I had a moment right after I posted my total in the com. I almost changed my POV from third to first person, but I let it be after a bit of angst over it. I'm at just over 2500 now. Break time now, then trying for another 2500 tonight. My story is not SF at all. A sort of coming of age story, but not quite.
