necia_phoenix: (nano)
I just blew an entire evening re-reading old projects. The theory was that I was going to list off all of my projects and what needs to be done for them to be 'finished'. The reality was I opened up Crossroads and found myself doing a few editing things. Just fixing punctuation mainly but also adjusting some phrasing.

I finally tore myself from Crossroads, got the word count then opened Bastard Prince and lost about twenty min re-reading over a few fight scenes and fixing some punctuation. I forced myself to get the wordcount and open another Avaria project but not before thinking that some of it wasn't as sucky as I thought it was.

Then another idea struck me.

For nano, seeing as I have actually won it a couple times, perhaps I should just chose a half-finished or mostly finished project **cough Bastard Prince cough** and use Nov to finish it. My goal for BP for instance is something like 120k and it is sitting at 60975k.

I dunno, I do have a nano idea I was thinking about. (actually drew a map of it at church today **hangs head**)

My NaNo idea (officially) is about a group of tribal people who have to flee their Island home because it goes Krakatoa on them. It is also a romance (I don't write anything but :P ) and I really like this idea and I adore my main characters and even have a bit of an outline to it.

So what to do. I suppose it is stupid to sign up for nano at all. Nov is our busiest month. But I love the energy, the friendships I have made through nano have been wonderful. I love cheering people on I love seeing people's progress. I can't NOT do it, you know?

Anyways, I think what I'll do is poke at BP until Nov then write the Survival story then when I finish it (I don't see it being longer than 50 tbh) go back to BP to try to finish it.

**shrugs**

Ok time to go to bed.

Writing Schedule through Dec.

Mind you this is very tentative as we are also planning a move.


Editing.
Oh man I have so much stuff that is just languishing on the hard drive (flashdrive actually). Playing for the Dead needs to be edited.


Writing/Finishing.

Last night I wrote up a list of half finished projects that really need to get finished. Bastard Prince, though smooshed with the old version of Crossroads still has placecard areas that need to be finished. So I would really like to finish it.


Fresh Writing.
NaNo.
A survival type romance set in a Polynesian-based culture. Mind you it is a fantasy world, not earth but it has a very Island feel to it. This is for fun, a different type of story. A huge writing exercise for me.

Gots to go.
