NaNo

I was going to call it a night after I passed 36k but I am now closer to 37k and am unwilling to stop when I am sooooo close.




The focus switches over to the Windwalkers and is hopping back and forth between them. The Windwalker mc is named Nami and she rides(is partnered with) this huge bird that looks in my mind's eye like an Osprey only much larger. Now this is rough so please pardon the suckedness....

( She wanted to see where the Islands were )

Reading List & writing thoughts

I just finished reading Belgarath the Sorcerer and am preparing to read Polgara the Sorceress (both by David Eddings for those of you who don't know). I have run across a lot of bad mouthing the Belgariad Series but I have to say I loved it. When I think about how successful as a writer I want to become, I think Eddings and McCaffery.

I love the complexity of the worlds, the richness of the characters. I know often when people discuss cliches they will dredge up Eddings and point at Garian and say "Cliche! Cliche!"

I stopped worrying about cliches a long time ago, I don't recall when. In fact when I sat down to brainstorm BP I decided to toss as many cliches as I could in it because I thought it was funny. The story has evolved but there ya have it.

I love me some Eddings. It has been too long since I could pick up a book and read it without an internal editor dissecting it.

Anyways, I really ought to write up a ramble about the matter of cliches but right now I have to do housework and mundane things and I only have about 13k to go to get the wordcount for nano. Not sure how I am going to wrap up the story, I'm worried it will wrap up too soon or not wrap up at all. **shrugs**

No sweat. I'll figure something out.
