I am taking a couple of days to let the BP project stew. For several reasons.

RL is kicking up this week.
Prepping for a major move.
And figuring out plotting stuff.

I opened up the NaNo'09 thing to just get my mind off of Zander and realized I really do like this little project.

I doubt it would be more than a novella, it has promise and I am trying to edit it.

This is a key word here. TRYING TO.

I do more writing raw than editing. Which is a big reason why I don't submit.

SO, I am practicing **gulps** with editing this project while I refill the subconscious.

Anyways, it is bedtime.
Night all.

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.
