Did someone say, . . 100K?

Doy. I just realized that I never posted on here about the end of NaNo! Well. . .

I got to 100k!! Specifically, I got 101,549 words, official grand total! I tried tweaking for that to end with a 47, but it just didn't happen. :)

Anyway, right now I'm trying to write poetry for the first time in weeks, and I think remembering I had yet to post this was an avoidance tactic, so I'm not going to spend too much time writing this. But I also wanted to mention that I'm signed up for WriYe next year, for 600,000 words for the whole year. That's 50,000 a month. A NaNo a month. Did I mention I'm also insane?

Anyway, I'm "choukuro" on the WriYe site, same as for NaNo, but without the space in the middle. Yep.

Kill me now?

Every time I judge a contest on allpoetry, I vow to never do it again, for the simple reason that NO ONE WHO ENTERS MY CONTEST KNOWS WHAT A POEM IS!!!! Ahem. Examples.

50,000 words!

I reached it yesterday before midnight, so that's 50k in fifteen days, and I only wrote 200 words each for two of those days. That means that in two weeks I've written 200 pages in a story which prior to this took me six years to write 330. Sigh. Makes me feel awesome and pathetic at the same time. But I'm aiming for 100k this year, so I should pass 300 easily as well, which is good, because my story is nowhere near done. For the first time every, I'm thinking about having to make it into two stories. Weird. Anyway, I still have to finish it, then rewrite the entire thing, so the decision time for that is way in the future. I just came here to brag. :)

NaNoWriMo 2009

Yep, you guessed it! I'm doing NaNo this year as well (if you don't know what it is, go to nanowrimo.org for lots of helpful information). And I'm off to an awesome start! At only three days in (and I haven't done all my writing for today yet) I've written over 12,000 words! My minimum goal is 50,000, so I'm a good way toward that goal. I'd love to write 100,000 this year, because I just made it to 53,000 last year, and that would be way awesome.

Anyway, I should really get back to useful writing. :D

Internet!

I was just reading my last post, and realized I had to put a new one up here. We have fast internet!!! I'm so excited! Though I still won't be looking up the Burger King anytime soon. :) I'm too busy going on Hulu to watch Ghost Hunters and House anyway.
