Last NaNoWriMo excerpt of the year (probably):
The story isn’t quite yet finished.
But, I did unknowingly write the very last paragraph so that it fits in with the very first one.
First paragraph:
I decided to wear my long hair down because only slave girls keep it cropped short, and I wanted to be furthest away from them as possible. Even then, I couldn’t stop myself from gathering it in my hands and twisting it up into an...

That moment
When you find yourself getting up to go look out the window at your driveway.
Because you can’t remember if anyone else is home right now.
And if no one’s car is parked out there now, so you’re almost certain that you’re alone.
So then you can take a recording of yourself reading aloud your own fanfic with your webcam microphone.
I am constantly checking to see if...

Strange NaNo Typo #4
I discovered that my story had a “resluting slaughter”.
Another unintentionally naughty line?
RANDOM VERBS OF NAUGHTY WORDS LIKE “SLUT” AND “CONDOM” THAT AREN’T REALLY REAL WORDS BUT STILL SEEM DIRTY ANYWAYS.
I DON’T EVEN KNOW ANYMORE.
1349 WORDS TO GO AND THINGS ARE GETTING CRAZIER.

When someone says “I’m going to _____ [insert random simple and/or boring activity here, like “pick up your brother”, “work”, etc. etc. etc.].” I always reply with:
“Have fun with that.”
And I mean it. I siriusly seriously do.
If you can’t have fun doing the simple and annoying things in life, then you won’t live a fun life....

Weird NaNo typo #3:
But now, I watched on in silence, condoming the killing of this mob by my inability to condemn it.
Wat.
There is an “m” that should be an “n” in there.

Another strange NaNoWriMo typo
The peasants were sinning.
As opposed to “winning”
Yeah, strangely appropriate, because when this line happened, the peasants were mobbing (again) and there was a lot of murder happening at the time.

Ugh, I'm so irritated at homophobia right now

I'm going to reverse-fridge one of my characters
She’s going to die just to show that her death doesn’t have any impact on the main character.
This is going to be fun! The final stage of innocence, that of one who has never brought death at one’s own hands, will be destroyed!
WHAT DOES THIS SAY ABOUT THE PORTRAYAL OF WOMEN IN MEDIA?

Just started writing the climax to my NaNoWriMo
My current word count is 42793, so the climax and its aftermath need to last me 7207 words. And if so, I’ll have finished writing my first novel! Riven didn’t count because though it ended up reaching novel length, it wasn’t in any way finished. This novel will actually reach from: beginning —> first plot point —> more plot points and filler —> climax...

Life’s just been one huge shipping party for me.
One moment I’m reading Kirk/Spock fic, then I’m searching for more good Dumbledore/Grindelwald fic by the same person who wrote “Thirty-Five Owls”, then I’m saving some good Remus/Sirius animated GIFs to my computer and reading a fic or two, then I’m trying to come up with a good name for Xena/Gabrielle,...

Writing Animal Crossing fanfiction like a boss.

MISC. RAMBLINGS: STAR TREK AND FEMINISM
So, Star Trek isn’t exactly known as a feminist show.
For good reasons.
AT THIS POINT IF YOU ONLY READ BLOGS FOR THE GIFs AND SHINY THINGS, I’LL LEAVE THIS AND YOU CAN SCROLL ON BY.
IF NOT, THEN…
SO STAR TREK ISN’T VERY FEMINIST.
But if one thinks about it a bit deeper, then I don’t think it’s as fair of an assumption.

Lulz, typo
So I’m trying to catch up on my NaNoWriMo right now, and then I reread my last sentence and see this:
When the bathwater had grown cold, I decided that I’d had enough with useless musings and stepped out of the water to fry myself.
Apparently my main character plans to fry herself after taking a bath.
Wow, that’s news to me.

Don't know what filler to put in my NaNoWriMo...
So I write fluff involving cuddles between my two male characters in a small bathtub.
Fluff is GR8 filler.
I’m convinced that I’m a closet sap.
…Which is totally why I’m killing off both star-crossed male characters at the end of this story.
But w/e w/e.
