A [NaNoWriMo] Novelist...

28th October

Today I went to the Pre Nano meet. It was organised chaos, exactly as described, and totally, utterly fantastic! I had so much fun, meeting people who're struggling with the same things as me, and chatting to them about gay ferret rape, and slug rape.... okay, the latter is a little disturbing. We drank coffee and chatted. Everybody was really friendly, and welcoming dispite the fact that me and Alex were the only two 15 year olds there....

I got a ration pack too, which I've had to put on top of my wardrobe to stop myself from eating the chocolate before November. I got dice, and a pencil, and a pen. I need new ones to! Sarah's so clever; she knows exactly what we need xD There'd also some great advice and stuff in there too. So I think that later I might pop upstairs and do a plot game with the dice, or something. My cramps are killing me, and there's nothing else to do. So I'll grab and coffee and go a read some.

I got myself a Guns N Roses shirt!! WHEEEY! I also managed to filch a ten pound note out of my mother in Waterstones today. She got me No Plot? No Problem! by Chris Baty. Founder of the NaNoWriMo. So far, I've already found like, three witty lines. I'm looking forward to cramming that into my last weekend of having a social life. ha! Like that's going to happen, though. I have loads of homework that I'll have to do. Already my positive outlook on that maths homework has gone downhill, after I took another long look at it, and decided that I didn't have a clue how to sort out the standard deviation. yeah, I know how to work it out... But I haven't got a clue why I've got to do it, and how it applies to my data.... WTF I also took another long look at what I have to read by tuesday.

I swear my English teacher thinks I'm magic or something. I don't want to read Lord Of The Flies. It's hbad! Not as bad as romeo and Juliet and Great Expectations were (Studied, not read my choice. I'm sure they're lovely if I could only stop picking them to pieces, writing essays and speeches, and just read them normally. Literature, poetry and prose was surely meant to be enjoyed, not critised...) I still have half the book to read. I didn't like them killing the pig and MAJOR PLOT SPOILER: I heard that Simon dies. That sucks asssss.

So yeah. That's exactly what I think. I haven't quite finished yet, but I think if I write any more I'll rub my arms and fingers off (my arm's rubbing against the table, and it hurts...) So. That's it now. Good night everyone.

About Me

My Photo
Name: Kitty Taylor
Location: Derby, Derbyshire, United Kingdom

I'm a 23 year old female, who spends much too much of her time online, and in the book store. I'm in love with writing, and reading and anything mildly creative, really. In the future I'd like to write professionally, because it's something that I know would be perfect for me, but until I come up with best selling material that will keep me in the moneys, I think I'll just head for whatever I can get. Got contacts in the writing business? Let me know, I'd love to learn more about it.

"Come on babe

Why don't we paint the town?

And all that Jazz

I'm gonna rouge my knees

And roll my stockings down

And all that jazz

Start the car

I know a whoopee spot

Where the gin is cold

But the piano's hot

It's just a noisy hall

Where there's a nightly brawl

And all

That

Jazz

Skit two!

And all that Jazz

Hotshot!

Whoopee!

And all that Jazz

Slick your hair

And wear your buckle shoes

And all that Jazz

I hear that Father Dip

Is gonna blow the blues

And all that Jazz

Hold on, hon

We're gonna bunny hop

I bought some aspirin

Down at United Drug

In case you shake apart

And want a brand new start

To do that-

Jazz

Find a flask

We're playing fast and loose

And all that jazz

Right up here

Is where I store the juice

And all that jazz

Come on, babe

We're gonna brush the sky

I bet you lucky Lindy

Never flew so high

'Cause in the stratosphere

How could he lend an ear

To all that Jazz?

Oh, you're gonna see your sheba shimmy shake

And all that jazz

Oh, she's gonna shimmy 'till her garters break

And all that jazz

Show her where to park her girdle

Oh, her mother's blood'd curdle

And If she hears her baby squeal

It's For all that jazz

And all that jazz

And all that jazz

Come on babe

Why don't we paint

The town?

And all that jazz

I'm gonna

Rouge my knees

And roll my

Stockings down

And all that jazz

Start the car

I know a whoopee spot

Where the gin is cold

But the piano's hot

It's just a noisy hall

Where there's a nightly brawl

And all that-

Jazz

No, I'm no one's wife

But, oh, I love my life

And all that Jazz!

That Jazz!"
