NaNoNews

I was actually about to go to bed, seeing as to how it's nearly 1AM, but I decided to blog.

Okay, so I've decided that I will do Camp NaNo. I am going to be working on a story I have brewing called The Wrong Devices. It's a sci-fi fantasy about this guy named Titan, who is turned into an Otro--a servant--to the government and has to kidnap the Veret--the queen, essentally.

I've already written some of it--roughly 8,000 words--but I'm gonna try to hold off until April. I'm shooting for around 60,000 words, give or take a couple thousand.

I am off.

Neglect, Updates, and Camp NaNo

Story time:

So awhile back, somewhere around July-August of last year, I made the acquaintance of this wonderful, artistic, singing girl over the internet. I helped her work up the confidence to actually finish and like her first song, I helped her put together a Bandcamp profile (click here!) and I even worked with her to make some album art. She's a great photographer, and here are some of the ones I made:

both pictures taken by her and edited by me

She has four songs on her Bandcamp at the moment: covers of Across the Universe by the Beatles, Eyes on Fire by Blue Foundation, and Brave as a Noun by Andrew Jihad. Her oldest song is an original, one that I am quite fond of.

Anyways, so why am I telling all of this? Because I was just editing her Bandcamp, and I remembered that I had a blog and that I should probably update it!

Anyways, I won NaNoWriMo 2013 by working on two stories. I got my original idea, which no longer exists in the word document due to immense hatred, and a co-write done. The co-write, which I absolutely had great amounts of fun writing and even cried a bit when it was done, will be available on Kindle soon! (Hopefully. I'm still a minor, so parental dictation and all that.)

Okay, so I completely forgot about NaNoWriMo. I've been writing somewhat a lot this year, but not much. I'm in a creative writing class, so that kind of helps. I'm not too sure if I'm up for this year's April session because school is so damn hard. I have, like, 3 Ds. We just started the last quarter and I have 3 Ds. (If it's any consolation, I also have 3 As and a B! ((Update: Just checked and saw I brought one of my Ds up to a pretty high C and that, in fact, one of my As disappeared. I am so confused.))

Anyways, that is all.
