So, it is December 1st (making tomorrow my birthday!) and NaNoWriMo officially ended. The attached screenshot explains my feeling on said subject ;_;
Of course, I am glad to have the time back and not having to stress about meeting my daily word quota, but I am also starting to feel a bit lost with out having a novel to work on everyday. I mean, I know I could start writing something else but…. well, I’m sure a lot of you out there know how that goes.
Current Word Count: 60,812
Words Written Today: 644
And at 60,812 words I am calling my story DONE! ^__^
I have mixed feelings about the end of NaNoWriMo. On one hand, I’m very sad that it is all over…. but on the other hand I am also happy to get the time back. I can’t say for sure if I will continue writing everyday, because whenever I do say I will it never last very long o_O”
Plus, it’s not like it would be a bad thing to take a bit of a break.
Day 30 - Share a link to either your NaNo profile or a location on the internet where your story can be found. If someone offered to beta read for you, would you be willing to do the same for them during the subsequent editing process?
Here’s a link to my NaNo Profile ^_^
The picture above explains my feelings on the thought of other people reading my novel the way it is right now : “Gerrrr, stay away from my novel! gerrrrrrr!”
Current Word Count: 60,168
Words Written Today: 2,149
Like I said in my last post, I finally got to the end of the story, YAY! ^_^
*jumps up and down in excitement*
YAY, I finally got to 60k and finished my novel. Well, I’ll probably add a couple more hundred words tomorrow since I can, and plus the last chapter (before the ‘after story’) needs to be competed.

So since I’ve resorted to having my characters watch episodes of My Little Pony I thought I’d share my procrastination. ^_^
Day 29 - Name one thing in which you indulged as a treat to keep yourself motivated and writing that you wouldn’t otherwise have done.
Actually I haven’t been doing any thing extra that I wouldn’t have normally have been doing. This is mostly due to my writing procrastination and not meeting my daily word quota till like 10PM at night.
What about anime, you ask? I normally shaft my writing responsibilities to watch my anime, so that doesn’t really count as something I “indulged as a treat to keep yourself motivated”. But I have been drinking a lot of tea. I don’t know about more than normal, but it is something I do indulged in to help motivate me to write ^_^

- I just…. have no clue what’s going on….

Joseph Devon: A Poem of Encouragement for All You NaNo's Out There!
hehe, I love it ^_^
I now feel the need to reblog this ^_^
Doubt
by
Joseph DevonAs you sit there never sleeping, at your keyboard often weeping,
Piling up your word count like a Herculean chore,
Late at night your face is scowling, while empty stomach it is growling,
You might sense something prowling, prowling at your cranium’s fore.
“My lack of sleep,” you’ll say, “is causing pain upon my cranium’s fore-
Only this, and nothing more.”Ah, what madness is November, every NaNoWri club member,
Lumbering like zombies as more coffee they do pour.
Wishing that the month was through, insanely they do all pursue,
A novel’s word count to accrue, accrue it in one month’s time and no more.
For all you at this task for just one month and then no more,
Please, closely heed verse five and four.Late at night your tale grows stronger, while your face it does grow longer,
Fingers typing cross the laptop from your computer store.
As I mentioned, while you’re clacking, at the keys so madly tapping,
You might feel a distant rapping, rapping at your cranium’s fore.
Preying on your weakness as it raps upon your cranium’s fore,
There comes a monster with fearsome roar.A word-count halting terror. Your project’s grim pall bearer,
Snorting and laughing at the plot holes you ignore.
Quickly moves this horrid beast, neither fettered nor policed,
Till your dreams lie there deceased, deceased and turned to ash upon the floor.
Your heart and dreams and vision turned to ashes on the floor.
The beast has fed, you’ll write no more.Do take heed this warm advice, I’m trying quite hard to be nice,
Though I scare you with this monster slavering at your door.
You’re not alone here is my point, and this beast should not disjoint,
In fact he does anoint, anoint you to the club of writers all through yore.
This beast has crushed the spirits of every writer heretofore,
Its name is “Doubt” (we’ve met before).So I demand that you take heart, as you practice at your art,
Wringing out your story like a soldier gone to war.
Proudly steel your trembling jaws, as you take on Doubt’s cruel claws,
Knowing that he gnaws, gnaws on you as well as all who came before.
Face him down, it is your right, not a task to be deplored.
Trust in yourself, and let your artwork soar.
