So I have nine Vlogs I'll be doing in November and I've gotten the points of interest marked down in a word doc. Tomorrow I'll be going to Staples to get some index cards (because I can't find any here). Then I'll have to accumulate sources and links and perhaps some images to compliment my Vlogs.

Also, I ran this all past my Daddy and Chellis and both agree that they don't see that I'm missing anything as far as topics go.

In addition, I finished copying over everything from Angels of Shard: Our Guardians into my new notebook as well as The Weeping Year. I'm now working on Paper Fireflies and The Runner and getting everything in one place.

As for my goal for the month, I've already written over the 25,000 I'd wanted to. Just not all in one place, like I had originally hoped for. Hahaha, oh well. At least I've written a whole bunch! I still have another three days, too.

Okay, so... I've been chilling for a week after I returned from a whole week up in my hometown. Granted, I should have picked up writing ASAP, I didn't. I tried to with Paper Fireflies, but nothing was really coming out. As for reaching my goal for the month: I blame the trip for taking too much out of me (read as: I didn't reach my goal). However, this month (July) I plan to actually write those 25,000 words I planned to write for last month (and ended up falling wayyyyy short of).

Tonight I've been sporadically working on The Death of Someone (AKA Book One of the Series). So far very strained, but still pushing through it. I want to write, dammit.

I missed yesterday, so I'm gonna have to play catch up. On the upside, I've already sold 10 copies of Be Happy, Idiot.

Back to Paper Fireflies, though; I plan to have this be about the same length as Be Happy, Idiot, but written over the span of two or three months (since I didn't specify that my 25000 words would be written on just one project, it might be broken up into a three month stint). However, I'm hoping that this way I'll have that one in the editing process once I start up my NaNoWriMo for this year (which I plan to either be working on The Runner or Book One of The Series).

So I started working on the novel Paper Fireflies. Katherine, the MC just decided to start opening up to me. Therefore, it's started being written. Also, for anyone who might be interested, I vowed at [livejournal.com profile] thedailywriter to write 25,000 words this month. Not as much as I'd like, but I have a vacation across the country planned for about a week this month. We'll see if 25,000 can get done.



As for Paper Fireflies, it's about a 14 year-old girl and her father in the aftermath of a house fire that claimed the lives of their dog and her mother. It's about how they deal with the grief and the changes and everything. It's plain fiction, this time. Nothing supernatural or fantasy-like about it.

25k!!!!!

Half-way there! YAY!

Not sure if I'll get anymore written tonight.

I'm having a fuck all time with work lately.

Be Happy, Idiot is entirely planned out; all sixteen chapters of it. It should be well over 50,000 words (or I hope so, anyway). It has a well-rounded plot with plenty of action, drama, and attempted murders (there are four, currently).

I have tiny details planned and written down so I will have each Chapter being happy happy happy!

Hopefully everyone who's looking forward to reading this will find it an enjoyable ride.

Anyway, I have a word count to start knocking down. I *will* make 25k today, even if it kills me. At least 1500 now, then a nap, then another 1500. Rain or shine: I'll be writing you, you silly novel!

EDIT1 (8:50 am): put up an excerpt from Be Happy, Idiot on my nanowrimo page. :)

I wrote my Dedication today. Not anything huge, but it does contribute to the word count. I figured out who I wanted to dedicate Be Happy, Idiot to and it was a cake walk.

Working towards my goal of 25,000 today. Almost to 21k now. Will give updates as the day goes on.


EDIT (1:47 am): 21k!

EDIT 2 (10:48 pm): 22k!

Not going to get to 25k, but that's because I slept through my alarm.
