But that's t...Awww, I'm sorry to hear that. But that's the beauty of NaNo, it forces us to keep writing no matter what. AND I've discovered what we think wasn't good turns out to be much better than we expected. So yes, just keep trying! That's the attitude! :D Keep writing, it's gonna be great! And don't forget, rewrites can fix everything, but we can't rewrite something that isn't there. *preaching to herself* Besides, the plot is the most important thing, so you're right on track.<br /><br />Happy NaNoing, sweet girl!

It's just so encouraging to know people actually WANT to read my silly writings. I'll try to post some more this month. ^_^<br /><br />Thank you, girly! <333Christine Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15859881278385314279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139091376044743904.post-69752247723830992862015-11-07T20:37:26.826-06:002015-11-07T20:37:26.826-06:00Oh my, thank you! My secrets? Lol. Well...mainly I...Oh my, thank you! My secrets? Lol. Well...mainly I just get OCD during NaNo and write every second I get. Even right now I'm scolding myself for not writing. Such a problem. A big thing is I force myself to get in 2k words written before even touching the internet. Then after that I allow little breaks between every 1k words. That forces me to keep writing, so I can reach the words and get a break. I have to trick my mind to keep going. XD<br /><br />D'awww! Thank you!! Yes, all the strangling and fighting.

I'm having a blast with this story.<br /><br />*collapses from all the niceness* I can't wrap my mind around the fact that people actually want to read something *I* wrote. I'm so glad you enjoyed them! I'll try to squeeze some more in throughout the month. <3<br /><br />Lol. Well, I'd looove to try and get them published one day. But right now they all need some SERIOUS editing. Most of my novels are first drafts and disasters. o.o<br /><br />You are so precious.

THANK YOU! Nostalgic? Oh my goodness, you...AAAHHHH! THANK YOU! Nostalgic? Oh my goodness, you are so sweet! WRITING this book makes me feel nostalgic, just getting to return to everyone and such. Eeee! I love it!<br />Airen. XD He is such a mess. And Bryth and Riana, yes! Years ago it occurred to me that if those two ever ended up together for a long amount of time, they'd probably try to kill each other. I wasn't wrong. o.o I didn't even PLAN for their fight to get so violent it just...happened. Those two... *shakes head*<br /><br />I HAVE OBSESSIVE PROBLEMS. HALP. Except I'm actually not getting in as many words in as I did the other years. Life is getting in the way of NaNo! D:<br /> <br />LOL. The strangest things pop in my head during NaNo. I make the craziest posts while NaNoing. My brain just...I don't even know.<br /><br />Yeah, I kept trying to get into it but it didn't click until NaNo. Now I love it! Although the love may fade after NaNo. Who knows with me? XD<br /><br />Nice?? What is this nonsense? NICE characters during NaNo? WIZARDRY.<br /><br />YOU TOOOO! :D :D :DChristine Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15859881278385314279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139091376044743904.post-37243908542792281572015-11-07T15:18:10.689-06:002015-11-07T15:18:10.689-06:00(Reuniting the characters, that is.
