A Basket Of Acorns
Soooo I'm not doing NaNo this year. It's partly because of school and partly because I've got overtime coming up and partly because I've currently got to finish editing The Monsters Of Moosic and work on this story AND work on two separate Heroine 'verse stories including the Heroine Addiction sequel. So, you know. BUSY. Hmph.
That said, I think I've got my classwork balanced right now to the point where I can focus a bit more on writing than I have the past couple of weeks. I've started to realize that I could write my Writing About Literature class assignments in my sleep -- hell, I wrote my poetry paper yesterday in a little over an hour and my professor gave my first-draft a huge thumbs-up -- and my marketing class only requires four or five more assignments. My speech class is the big problem, but it's not as bad as it was before I did my first speech. (Got an A+ and a compliment for being a natural up there, so that's good.)
School's not as much a problem as work, but we're currently not having overtime, so I've got plenty of time at night and in the morning to write and edit. So I can hopefully get a good base going on with this story before finals sneak up on me. (Post-apocalyptic lone-plague-survivor YA novel. AW YEEEEEAAAAAH.)
