"You get punished if you aren't constantly typing something."

Not by my calculations, Silverpine. I never was able to type up mine, and I never got rebuked for it. :)

I mostly have trouble thinking of a plot, but once I have one, I am able to write a lot.

I mean on the site I gave out. xDD Did you look at the site?

Same with me - the ones I think of are not very well put together, or natural sounding. xD

I guess it's the opposite over here with me then :D
I usually have everything planned out perfectly (or so it seems >_>) and then something pizzapancakesrolls when I has to put ideas into text. It's sa isn't it? DD:

I'm doing NaNo. Did it 2 times (FAILURE), and probably won't do any better anyways...

Yeah. D: Nothing, however, really ever goes to plan. Having control over a moving storyline, and keeping it on path is kinda hard... xDD

nano!

Oh, yeah. I've done it for two consecutive years - barely missed it first year (well, a bit more than barely, but I was still close) and failed miserably at about 9k words last year.

This year I'm quite a bit nervous about my plot because it's very general and I'm very fond of it and I'm completely clueless about what's in the middle.

It involves undead pixie, a former cocaine addict, and a very creepy city.

Oh right, I remember that story.

It was really creepy...lolz. I remember mine was about two girls learning how to use magic and this murderer....I don't feel like reciting the whole plot right now.

Yah, I'm expanding that story :) Longer, with more evil plot twists, crazy heroines and villains alike (everyone's insane in some way in my lil' world), and creepiness in general.

Then there's the question of whether I'll be able to dedicate enough time to Nano wackiness this year, neh?

Creepiness... That won't be too hard, if you're writing all day. xDD I tend to write sad stories. D:

At least you can try... Even if you don't reach the wordcount, you have material to work with and define. :D

Hmmm, I scrapped everything from last year xD.

Yez. I was mindstorming from every freaking story I was writing because I couldn't decide which I should write for that year. :o When I finally decided what to write... I got writer's block'd.

Suz - oh, hahhhhhahahahaha. Bonne chance!

Life has been sucking my brain out of my ears lately ,so stuffies that I write will probably be creepy/tragic for a while.

Stranger - oh, November is definitely the wrong time to get the Block, eh!

What I love is reading my old Nanos (only two, but still) because I laugh a little b/c I was such an innocent happy easily-influenced person with a very cliché sort of fantasy style. It's just cute.

How do you work with a former cocaine addict as a primary villain?
