the man for aeiou
in December 1st, 2007 @ 08:25well, I think my one just needs to be finshed, and given tender love and care.
okay,okay, It needs to be a lot better, but I am puttung it down intill spring.
sometime soon I will start spectrum, which is about a kid who falls into the inner working of a book, and has to save the day in the genre spectrum. it has the answer to the question of the mini-muse (or mega muse, if you think of it that way). it is going to be great.

Cinnamoon who is procrastinating and must go back to NaNo now
in December 1st, 2007 @ 09:22My only question now is – what am I going to do all afternoon?
(First post?)I guess I’ll just edit.

Prarilius Canix, taking a break from NaNoWriMo
in December 1st, 2007 @ 12:15Mine conclusively answers the question of how HPBs came to be (Actually, the correct name is aichpibi, plural aichpibin, but that’s another story which one can find on the MuseBlog NaNoNovels thread). How they got into the Musiverse is yet another story which I have never heard.
2- Go to RRR SMAS-TT!!!

in December 1st, 2007 @ 13:12With all my non-NaNo-ing free time, I have several things in mind. I am going to work on the RRR SMAS-TT, work on two special secret Muse projects I’m doing, work on the video footage from our trip to Mexico and the Pumpkin Drop, and get some serious research done for my long-term project that I’m doing (with Philosophical.bunny, who has posted a few times) about recycling. That project needs a lot of work, it was seriously neglected during November.
I will also be able to post on MuseBlog, and not feel guilty about it!

in December 1st, 2007 @ 13:15I feel strangely lost without my NaNoWriMo deadline. I guess I’m going to edit and continue my story. Just as an incentive I’ll make myself go 1K a day.

Quintessentia
in December 1st, 2007 @ 15:09I have a friend who tried to do NaNoWriMo; sadly, she ended up with about 800 unpromising words. Basically, her problem is that we have a 49-hr school week, not counting sports games.

in December 1st, 2007 @ 18:44I actually wrote last night, untill midnight. Not for my wordcount, but I don’t think I can fall asleep without writting now. Sounds like a good habit to me though
Also added about a paragraph on the 1 1/2 hour drive to wisconson. I was actually porcrastinating and staring out the window and not feeling guilty O.o Weeeird.

curious and questioning is NaNoing and thus not on the blog
in December 2nd, 2007 @ 00:0615- For me, so is June, and June is when I have all my regents and finals testing too.
I have to write more.
So, what’s NaNoEdMo? I though we edited whenever.

separate pentity
in December 2nd, 2007 @ 01:23Yeah, if you don’t know who this is you fail at life, almost as much as I failed at NaNo.
10978 words of total and utter crap. I forgot to update my wordcount on the site, though, so it looks like I only have 2ksomething. And I didn’t even get to write Ttare who is the hottest character I have ever come up with ever. If I hadn’t made him up I’d totally do a bunch of not very PG things to him. Mm.
The sad part is that I probably wrote close to 50k total in November, but most of it was schoolwork so it didn’t count. Next year I’m writing a novel set at a boarding school where the main character is assigned far too many papers. And I’m going to include every single paper and college application in the text of the story and see how far I get. I bet I’ll win.

::DandelionsAreWildflowers::
in December 2nd, 2007 @ 11:25Without Nanowrimo I can actually work on my homework and actually study for tests. My Nano stinks. At least ten thousands words are the words ‘toy boat’ over and over again. It worked though. My vampires were uninvicible to toungue twisting.

in December 2nd, 2007 @ 19:2936-i dabble a bit in the transcribing business myself
(well, just with my mom’s stuff actually…) i’ve decided i’m going to write now. because i still have a story to finish. and what’s more, until it’s finished, i’m going to stick with 1667 a day (or try to). It’s reasonable, and it gets things done. so there, world (and homework)

in December 2nd, 2007 @ 20:12Kiki (31): Cool!
Beavo (36): Really? That’s awesome!
I’m kind of obsessed with editing…I’m not sure when I began to like it so much. I loved copy-editing in middle school, and then at the end of 8th grade and the beginning of last year I started to get really good at regular editing, in addition to copy-editing, and I sort of fell in love with it. So now I’m the co-editor-in-chief of the school newspaper, and get to do it all the time! Which is really fun
I don’t particularly like editing my own work, though. I don’t mind it, but it’s way more fun editing other people’s work. It’s also much easier.

Beavo (and such)
in December 3rd, 2007 @ 15:4537-I think I’m a better editor than her; she was looking over one of her previous transcription and I noticed a period that was supposed to be a comma. I pointed it out, and she still didn’t see it, so had to literally fix it myself with her mouse. And she was like “OOOOHHHH! I see it now…” Hickabickaduh.
I enjoy editing other’s work as well. But mine is so attrocious I never even try to edit it and hand it over to Mom (who takes editing her son’s work as a responsibility, not a favor).
Yes, I am so spoiled.
Well, okay, not that much. I don’t have a cell phone or iPod or computor or laptop or big screen TV *goes on for hours about stuff that he dosn’t have*

in December 3rd, 2007 @ 20:08I will ENTER next year. I will!!! And it will be humorous. Something about a writer writing about a writer. And their lives begin to collide with each other’s and mine. Also, other stories written by all three authors (including me) will begin to overlap each other. Or something.

in December 5th, 2007 @ 16:21I am typing up what I have written right now… probably about 700 words more or so. Mine would require finishing, endless self-editing, sending it to someone like Purple Panda and bribing her to edit it, revising, rewriting, and more editing before I could think about sending it out.

in September 28th, 2008 @ 17:18I still haven’t decided whether I want to do NaNo or not. I have absolutely no ideas for it, and, if it turns out anything like my last one, it will be awful either way. Plus, I’m probably going to be fairly busy.
