NaNo - Day 3. Outline complete.

Okay.

I've looked at this thing long enough.

There are a million things going on in my life right now, I don't feel like I know enough about these characters to start writing. BUT. I cannot do another bit of tweaking to this outline. It's as complete as it's going to be right now.

Tomorrow, I write. I've got hella catching up to do.

It's on,

NaNo - Day 2. An Outline!

Okay, so it's evening time, Day 2. I have something like an outline!

137 rough scenes. Five major storylines. I'm not even completely certain how a few of the story lines are going to end. I'm getting excited, though. And I have a title so cool that I'm not even going to share it.

I posted a thread on the board and suddenly have three nemeses; the four of us will race to 150,000. Competition! Yes!

I'm headed into town to go see the Michael Jackson movie with my NaNoing buddy Su. Someone else mentioned the movie to me today, and when Su suggested going to see it tonight, I had to say yes right away. I believe in signs from the universe like that.

Tomorrow will be busy. My personal trainer gave me a grueling workout for tomorrow (an "off" day), but I'd like to spend a significant chunk of time writing. 6000 words per day is a lot, yes, but I'll have to do around that to keep on track for 150,000 by months end.

I love figuring out the accounting. From then, it's just type, type, type!

Yay! It's on!

Outlining. Damn.

I am in the thick of it, making lists of characters and scenes I only have vague, fuzzy notions about.

I should have started this two weeks ago. And, I can't figure out how to edit my outline structure in Word 2007.

Will try to go go go and have something like complete at midnight...
