4 more days!

Oh my!  It's getting so close!

The coast was a blast!


And yes, this picture I took seems to have nothing to do with anything, but I rather liked it.

And... I don't have much to update you on...   Except for the obvious fact that NaNoWriMo starts in four more days!  Yikes!  It's getting so close, and I'm still not caught up in school >.<   Oh well.

I've (re)discovered the song I've decided to base my secondary main character off of.  Isn't that kind of backwards, you ask?  Uh... *cough* *cough* *pantser* *cough*
Jason/Jamie/Devlon/Whateverhisnameis's Song

Alrighty, enough of that.  I hope everything is going well with you!  4 more days till NaNoWriMo starts!!!

Random list and links links links

Hey hey!

I'm getting inspired!  Still going the pantser route!  But, I am getting much much inspiration!

-America Disney
-'love interest who is currently nameless'
-alcohol issues
-insomnia
-coffee shop
-road trip?
-main character death?  <-----  toying with this idea, buuuuuut it's probably gonna get VETOED
-death in general  <--------  Yep, more I think about it, the more I'm probably just going to avoid...

Okay.  Done with my list for the moment.  Let's move on to something else!  I've been looking all over youtube and been trying to find different NaNoWriMo videos and vlogs, and through this I have found some that I love and am going to share!
            Here we go...

Everyday in the month of November!  MagicCatJenny
More of those by                                Kristina Horner
                                                               2012
                                                               2013
                                                               2014
I love these videos, and I found this so inspiring to watch (for some reason).  It's just really cool to watch and see these people and their word counts and in December I will definitely be looking to see of anyone put them up from this year!  If you like longer vlogs that go into more detail Katytastic has some great ones, if you go to her playlist you should be able to find them.  There's LittleBookOwl  :)   I also love Elizabeth Writes videos and would highly suggest you go check them out!

It's October 15th! Just 16 (17?) more days to go!

NaNoWriMo 2k15!


                      Exciting exciting!  I will officially be participating in this years NaNoWriMo.  What is NaNoWriMo, you may be asking?  NaNoWriMo = National Novel Writing Month.  In which millions of people attempt to write 50,000 words in 30 days.  Sounds crazy, huh.  This wonderful event takes place through the month of November, and has been 1999.  -Except I think they actually had the first NaNoWriMo in July...  but anyway =)
All in all NaNo is pretty bomb.  I tried participating once, but pretty much after 2k words I threw in the towel.  I didn't really know what I was getting in to, and I really didn't have the drive or the desire to finish through.  This year though, is different.
1.  I've been lurking about for a year, checking in on stuff every once in awhile- whenever I think of it.
2.  I discovered the forums.  Let me tell you- the Forums.  Please everyone, take advantage.
3.  Writing buddies.  In which basically you can send messages through the NaNoWriMo site and 'buddy' people, and just pretty have people to visit with and... if you don't exactly want the one on one with peeps- the forums.
4.  The forums.
5.  Watching old NaNoVlogs on youtube.
6.  The forums

Yep!  Sounds about right for now!
Here's a link to John Greens (albeit ancient) video on NaNoWriMo :)
And I'll have some other links up next post- including some of the said NaNoVlogs  (:
