A [NaNoWriMo] Novelist...

22nd October

Now playing:

How old are you? I'm older than you'll ever be. I've been dead a thousand years, and lived only two or three. I don't mind telling you : my life was ended by your hand, the kind of murder where nobody dies. But I don't suppose you'd understand. Call off the search; we've found her.

I really should learn to make these entries before I get tired, shouldn't I? It's pathetic really. It's 10pm and already I'm dying to get myself to bed. Year 13 in sixth form really does take it out of you. I guess I never really figured how much it would drain me. And this does NOT bode well for NaNo... XD

Tonight, as well as having Alex and Hazel around to plan everything out for the weekend, I managed to also sit myself down, write an essay and do a little NaNoWriMo planning. I decided that I wanted to have twins in my novel at some point this morning, having known that I wanted one of the twins to exists for a few weeks now. I couldn't decide at first which personality to give to which twin, which took some time to figure out, but now I think I've sorted it out. Cassidy (who is no longer the gang-fight daughter (that's now Ginger)) is going to be the intelligent twin, the one who always comes up with the routines for their acrobatic shows etc. and Vivienne-You-Can-Call-Me-Vee is the 'blonde', not-so-intelligent one. I think it should work well, and I think they might accidentally end up becoming central characters... >_>; Shh, don't tell Ginger, Danger or Q. They might hurt me while I sleep. -ninja-

Anyway. Other than the NaNo planning, and the excitement for this weekend (which is building up nicely now), there's only one more piece of information of any importance. And that, ladies and gentleman, and is that I have managed to nab a spot on the school trip that's going to Stratford to see Romeo and Juliet! Performed by the Royal Shakespeare Company! *scream of excitement*

I was gutted when I found out that we English Lit. students wouldn't be going, but the Lang and Lit kids and the Drama kids would be. However, once I'd resigned myself to this inevitability, an opportunity presented itself when Sarah said to me that her teacher had mentioned that there were five spare tickets. I almost raped her in excitement, asking her to ask said teacher if it would be possible for me to go. And it is. And I am. £27 it costs, but compared to the £130 minimum I'm dishing out this weekend for the London Scene with the girls (and Sam), I think £27 is entirely reasonable, and not at all expensive. XDD

I just REALLY REALLY want to go.
It's all good. Mum agreed.
: D
*does a happy dance*


And now it's bed time. >_o

7 days until NaNoWriMo 2008!

If I am Lolita, then you are a criminal and you should be killed...

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!"
