A [NaNoWriMo] Novelist...

29th November

Oh gosh. Only a day to go. I've just hit 94.5k words, and I'm totally on target to hit 100k tomorrow if I manage to get out another 3k tonight. I've no doubt that I can do it, but it's really sad to see another NaNoWriMo winding down. It's a hard month, but I know that when it's over I'll miss it. I'll miss the targets and the word counts. I'll miss thinking about my novel all of the time... I said last year that I was going to write 1k a day after NaNo finished, but I didn't. This year I have two incomplete novels to think about finishing during the year to come, and I still need to finished my NaNo2005 Novel Pride. 1k a day on these wouldn't go amiss, I don't think, but I doubt I'll be able to keep it going without the deadline. School (especially with exams and such) with definitely keep me on my toes, and I'm sure that will be much more important, so I'm really at a stage now, where I wish NaNoWriMo wouldn't end xD

Awwwww well, I suppose I'll just have to keep people poking me until I finished the novels, especially Portellan- A Love Story, since I'm loving that novel so much at the moment. I don't know if the affection will last, but I'm certainly hoping so.

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!"
