It's that time again...

It's October, which means that next month is National Novel Writing Month. I'be been a participant since 2002, but have yet to complete the goal of 50,000 words in 30 days, something I hope to change this year.

I'll be posting my progress to my LJ on a filter, so if anyone would like to read it, please comment here and I'll add you. I'll also do my best to comment on any NaNoWriMo posts others make, in the hopes of encouraging my fellow novelists.

Things left to do before November:

Wordsplat - "Wing"
Wordsplat - "Treason"
Wordsplat - "Home"
(I think there was another one, too.) Wordsplat - "Anticipation," thank you kevasangel74
all suggested by kevasangel74.

Figure out what the hell a phoenix down looks like. Thank you, infinitepryde. For some reason I never actually think of feathers when I think "phoenix down," even though, duh, down.

Clean the study.

Put together a playlist for writing purposes.


I still plan to do memefic for those who posted thenowhere's meme, but I'm putting that on hold until after November, the better to gear up for the challenge.

Phoenix down looks like a small, glowing, fluffy feather, of course.

And in case it wasn't obvious: MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe

Though I'm using the mad chittering squirrel icon, not Bob the Angry Flower on happy drugs. ;)

I think it was 'anticipation'.
