A [NaNoWriMo] Novelist...

8th October 2009

October is here again! You know what that means, right?

...

NANOWRIMO IS COMING! Haha. I'm excited about it this year, as always, although there is a lot of uncertainty surrounding how much time I'll have to write (what with my creative writing course demanding a lot from me) and whether I'll actually have an idea by November. It's entirely possible that I won't have an idea, which will be the first time in... Well, ever.

I think I'm having trouble because I've had to do a lot of work on my portfolio for my creative writing class recently, and getting a GOOD idea for that was hard and a lot of effort - so an idea for NaNo is also hard. Not to mention I've still got an unfinished novel that I need to FINISH, and which I don't really want to abandon. I guess I didn't really plan my year out very well, did I? XD Ah well, I'm sure I'll work something out.

Perhaps a story about a changeling child,
Or an Alice in Wonderland spin,
Or maybe a story about a person from a different world getting stuck in the local prison system.

Hey, maybe a combination of them all! It doesn't matter; it'll be a bit of fun. I look forward to it though :)

Tonight I'm going home to see my mum and my sister, and Tom. I get to see my DOGS AND CAT TOO! I miss them so much after not seeing them for three weeks. It's going to be good.

On the train I have a lot of reading to do, for my course, and maybe some writing too, depending on how long it all takes. :P But, it's going to be a nice relaxing journey, hopefully.

Also, I should start blogging more. After all, isn't that like... the tradition?
:3

Something like that. :D

I'll update soon!

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!"
