Haven't updated in a while.
Julno is pretty much a fail. I'm probably ... around 16k? Yeah. ._. Anyway.
My day was spent chasing chickens with The Child,
watching AVPS,
and, perhaps my biggest accomplishment for the day:
Yup. I was bored. And so decided the eggs needed faces. The Child will, undoubtedly, be thrilled. Dad walked in when I was about halfway finished with the eggs, grinned hugely, and grabbed a pen, helping me finish the carton. I love my family.
Other than that, my day has been uneventful. Yeahhhhhh.
Off to write and perhaps not fail JulNo. Yeah, right.
My new challenge: update this blog every day. Why that may be a problem: I'm me. My solution: drag a few of my best friends through this with me so we can kick each other to update! Expect a lot of completely random (and sometimes even on topic!) ramblings and rants from me.

JulNo Day Twelve: Apathetic Way To Be
So, I've met a new character.
His name is Ben.
Just thought the general public should be aware of this.
I don't even know about him. I have to write him for a bit.
I don't have a plot. I have a feeling this will be very litfic, in that it follows no coherent plot but there is definitely a story there.
We'll see.
Kinda apathetic. Bordering on depressed? I don't know. Doing a lot of homework. All day. Big Test tomorrow. Fun.
I dunno. I have mood swings. I'll be happy again in ten minutes.
Later, bro.

Day 10: Holy crap, it's day ten? D:
I haven't written in a few days.
I'm really behind.
Eh.
So, Homework Train time! I'm not supposed to be on the internet except for school ...
So, naturally, I'm blogging. Of course.
Anyway, I'm not going to be around much for the next week. I'm going to try to keep up with JulNo. I'll hang around Gmail on and off; if you hang around there long enough you'll catch me.
In a generally bad mood since I got home.
Eh.

JulNo Day Nine: Behind D:
I think I woke up behind for the first time this JulNo.
I didn't write yesterday. (I was having too much fun roleplaying because CLAIRE was there!)
Anyway, I'm behind today. So, I have to write. Only I'm babysitting all day. Eh. I'll write tonight.
So i'm going to go. Will probably blog again tonight, after I get some writing done.
Yeahhhh

JulNo day Eight: Broke Even =/
Look, I missed a day again!
I'm ont even gonna pretend that I'm going to update every day. *shrug* 'Least I'm honest?
So, I was behind yesterday. Well, not really behind, but actually like, trying to reach the lowest possible word goal for the day, which was 11k.
Which I should have gotten DAYS ago. =/
Ah well.
Am currently at 11.2k and won't be able to write for a few hours. How horrid.
S'great though. I'm writing a lot of Truths at the moment, also James-Jamie scene. Kinda dropped the pictures. Got boring and I couldn't figure out many other ways to die that would be interesting aside from being sat on by an elephant. Which might actually be fun. I should write that.
My life is boring in that busy way that leaves no time for anything. You know? I'm not like ... super busy ... but I am. Still have homework to finish for the summer. And babysitting happens at the least, three times a week.
Well, wanted to post this blog before I had to go babysit. Nothing really important here, just thought I'd do my JulNo check in. I might post again after I've written for the day. *shrug*
Cheers

JulNo day Six: Avoidance
I'm so bipolar.
I really am.
Earlier today I had decided that I was GOING to get 100k this month, and I would sit down and write as soon as I could, and I wouldn't stop until I passed out. And now I'm staring at my word document wondering what the hell I was thinking.
This has been a daily routine for the last six days.
I'd like to shoot for 100k. But I'm going to just try to keep up with 50k.
I think I've gotten past the hard part where I'm generally unimpressed with my story and the world. It's starting to become its own being and take me for a ride, telling me what's happening. I'm having fun.
But that's just my main story.
I'm also continuing with Truths, because, well. Some characters just don't know how to shut up. I've also got going The Plan, because I forgot about it, and it really is epic. Truths is making me sad right now, but I think I have a Jamie-and-James scene that would be fun to write out. The Plan is going. I'm going to attempt to write Noah answering the door. (Generally annoying little-brother-ish-ness. Check.)
I'm behind on my main story (which I've decided is called Snapshots, cause I needed something to call it.) I've kept up wordcount with the other things I've written, but I'm a picture behind, I think.
Taylor vlogged today. Lauren's turn tomorrow, I believe.
Okay. Enough avoiding. (Ahah, Like Taylor said, only a writer would avoid writing with ...writing.)
Off to write.
Aiming for 15k.
Planning for 11.
I really am.

Whoo Day Two!
I'm currently at 4,470 words.
This is thrilling.
I'm loving this.
I almost forgot to blog.
I'm going to go see if there is a vlog for today, and if not, then I get to go yell at someone.
Semi-watching Doctor Who.
Sorta writing.
Off to write then.

Welcome to JulNo, procrastinators welcome!
It's July!
And guess what I'm doing.
Procrastinating!
That's right.
It MUST be a WriMo.
I used to have a plan for JulNo; the picture thing. Fifty different 1,000 word drabbles. Cool beans.
And then Claire told me about her JulNo, and that made me have an idea, and I'm probably going to do that now.
Thanks Cee, for once again proving that I lack the ability to stick to a plan.
Okay.
JulNo-ing now. Go!
