So, about NaNo...

-___-;; like every year, a quick start and then I stalled. The issue here is my beginning wasn't well defined, so I dragged things on and lost the rhythm for a bit, temporarily found it again, and then ran straight into "okay, this is taking a direction I was NOT aiming for", which is always an issue when you know exactly where you want your people to be in chapter four or five of the story but you don't have a clue how to get them there. I'm going to try to continue working on this version of the story's beginning, but even though there are moments I like in it, I don't think it's the right start for the story I wanted to tell, either. I definitely don't work well without a detailed plan.

(also i've been binging on sunhawk fics and any other long GW things I could get my hands on, which does not help any. XD;)

Yeah, that's planned. IN THREE MORE SCENES. I've got to get there first. DX

Write them out crappily so you can get to the point you want and then come back and fix them once you got your end goal?

nyooooo. i'm way too finicky, the crappy scenes would itch at me until I fixed them and i'd get all distracted. .___.
