Things've been okay for me except that I'm a zombie now...

Having such a totally screwed up sleep schedule does have some benefits. Like many, many hours of being wide awake right after NaNo starts. I am pleased with this.

1) That prologue was not supposed to be so fucking long. I'm not even sure it counts as a prologue anymore. Damn it.

2) When you have to stop and ask yourself "Am I really killing someone with a giant undead raccoon monster in the prologue?", you are doing NaNo right. Or oh so wrong. I haven't quite decided.

3) Chris is still ahead of me. I've kind of resigned myself to this, and I'm okay with it because I love that universe and more writing in it is always a thing of joy. Still. Dammit, Chris. You make me feel inadequate.

4) DID I MENTION THE ZOMBIES?

5) I really need titles for these books. I've got a title for the damn trilogy, just not the books themselves, and that is annoying.

6) ...Yes, this song totally is on my playlist for this book. I make no apologies.

Titling is pretty much my least favorite part of writing. I will probably never have a title for my novel until it is done, so that I can make Mr. Ally read it and come up with one for me. Because, if left to my own ends, all my stuff would have Moll Flandersesque titles like "Brigit and Sian Argue a Bunch, Learn to Do Magic, and Kick the Bad Guy's Ass".

I'M SORRY. REALLY, REALLY SORRY. ♥?

GIANT UNDEAD RACCOON. That is.. Pretty much the greatest thing ever, and if that's not doing Nano right, then I don't WANT to actually do Nano right.

Stupid titles. Being problematic. *pets*

Firstly, WIN. OMG WIN. You're doing it right, I promise you.

No one's died in my story yet. It's really depressing. Oh well. I've got plenty of story to go. But I want undead raccoons. Why don't I get undead raccoons?
