Can’t Stop This Feeling

Exhaustion. Exhilaration. Embarrassment. Excitement. All of these are words I can use to describe how I’m feeling right now. I’m exhausted because I’ve spent most of my entire day editing for NtC. I’m exhilarated because I’ve revised up to chapter 21 out of 23. Which means that I’ve actually edited for three of the five… Continue reading

I’ll Give It All To You

Apparently… I do have readers on fanfiction.net. I was completely unaware, seeing as the viewer ticker is borked. So… I guess I’ll have to rescind my decision to up and dip out on that website. Fortunately, I had the idea in mind… already… to have the documents in different files. I’m currently going down the… Continue reading

I Want It All

…and I want it now. Is that too much to ask for? I pressed myself so hard last night until I squeaked. But… I nearly edited 10 chapters in one day. So… Oh, I mean 10 chapters of Navigating the Curve. I’ve already written down notes on continuity issues I’m finding. A downside? I’m going… Continue reading

Lost All Control

Je m’appelle Juliette. J’aime ecrire… mais pas mon corps. Mon corps deteste mon ecriture. La fatigue… la. Je suis tres fatigue. Tout le temps. …Ma maison est maintenant en desordre!! Work on NtC in terms of edits is on-going. My body is suffering for it. I’m trying to shove all of the updates and edits… Continue reading

Same Four Walls

It’s December! I can’t believe it. The month blew by so fast… I’m still in shock over how quick everything went. Maybe NanoWrimo worsened my concept of time? Anyway… On AO3, I have the corrected chapters of C&R up, along with two new chapters of it uploaded. I realized an hour ago that I edited… Continue reading

What Sticks Out The Most

Fantastic news! I completed NanoWrimo today with those additions to NtC totaling just a smidgeon over 50,000. I get asked what was won. Here’s what Nano gives you: A chance to buy a t-shirt with the year on it and a chance to buy a placard celebrating your success. You pay for those items… shipping… Continue reading

Need To Know

Unfortunately, just finishing up another bit of medical research. I like to aim for as realistic as I can in my writing, so now I think I have more of a solid idea as to where I am in NtC. But… I’m tired. I’m almost at the word count I was supposed to hit for… Continue reading

Mad World

5156. That is my current world count for today. I plan on attempting to squeeze out at least another 1K before bed. Or maybe I’ll be up late writing… I have no clue. This contest has taken a lot more out of me than I ever expected. I’m extremely sleep deprived… and confused about whether… Continue reading

Far Away

The finish line is closing in. I can feel it. Since I am utterly without sense, I plan on spending tonight and tomorrow working to update NtC. I want to see how close I can push it to the finish line for NanoWrimo. I also realized I could have combined C&R and NtC together to… Continue reading

Secondhand Emotions

I remember I said before that I was feeling the strain? I’m really feeling it now. A hunk of my personal life has taken a backseat to NanoWrimo… and that makes me very sad to admit. I’ve decided that this will likely be my last Nano… it’s just too much pressure on my joints. I… Continue reading
