Current Writting Project:
Most of my other writting projects has been pushed aside to make way for The Written Happenings. I must had said something about it in this blog before, if not check out my NaNo account and you will find out the plot of the story.
I set a goal on the NaNo forum to be finished this story (40-50k words) before NaNo starts again for this year so I must get typing. It's only up to around 8k and I've run out of plot. Well in away I have, the plot has only just started and I don't know where to go with it.
Side note: Last day of hoildays before I go back to school! (Discounting Saturday and Sunday because in the school term you have them off anyway.) Scary frankly, where have all the hoildays gone?

Generated Story Idea
Okay, okay I sware this is the last blog spot today! :) But I had a lot of writtting news banked up and I ddin't want to make one HUGE post.
Heres the plot: The story is about a scribe, a college professor and a smart sailor. It takes place in a bakery in a large city. The story ends with an inheritance. A powerful magical weapon plays an important role.
---
Clearly there is NO WAY I could end a story with somebody receiving an inheritance, so I'll have to alter this idea a bit. Also rather then a backery, I came up with this story set on a boat.
Anyway, I also generated the bios for the sailer, the collage professor and the main character (and some locations in the story). But I haven't touched the scribe just yet.
I'm in the process of writting all my ideas down into Buzzword so I don't loose them/inspiration for this story. So see ya!
On a side note: I joined Twitter, finally, and I really enjoy it so I doubt you'll want to follow me! ;)

Tarnie in the Library
Well, I just randomly started writting the other day (look at the post before this for more details) and came up with a whole new story idea. Here is a snip of it for you readers:
Tarnie found herself where she had found herself at that time, three o'clock, for the last three days, at 27 Ash Groove three streets away from where she wanted to be. Where she truly wanted to be was at her home with her brown and white gerbil in his wired in play aquitment where she could what him for hours and never get bored.
The reason why Tarnie had found herself at that very house for five hours of her day right after school finished was this, her mother was a budding interior designer. And rather then taking sensible hours that didn't make her have to work over dinner she had decided to spend every waking hour at the house which she liked to call 'just the break I needed.' By break clearly not meaning a rest, or as the Collens New English Dictionary put it; 'to stop for a rest.' Which in the 1997 edition was the eighth meaning for the word break.
----
I really think this is some of the best writting I ahve done... in a while at least. It gets worse as I go along, so thats why you don't get to read everything that I have written.

Plently to update about!
I'm going to update a few times to day, first with some words I wrote on Dollie Diner.net:
Writting up date: I've put my NaNo on the shelf, maybe one day I will be brave enough to look back on it and possibly edit it and possibly let people read it (very doubtful) but right now I've started on a new story on Buzzword which is going along swimmingly. I'm yet to lose any ounce of the inspiration for it that I had at the beginning and I'm dying just to get back to it.
It's a differant style of writting to my normal which I am trying to keep up because it is better then my usual.
Also, heres so more writing on DOllie Diner.net about my NaNo result (Sorry to keep any reads in the dark for so long):
Anyway, for those of you who didn't notice (which shows how great a poster I was outside of November) I was away this November, and the better half of October, writing my NaNo which I am super proud to say reached 50k and I also ended my story, though I did stay up till 11:40 or something. So everything worked out really.

In the midsts of interNaNo hype...
Some of the head lines:
I PICKED my novel plot!
My Birthday's near!
New promting blog!
~-~-~-~-
Okay, so my birthday on the 12th of this month is coming up fast, even though I've already got a pretty good percentage of my gifts. ^_^ I've gotten two gifts so far out of the 6 I will receive. Pretty good 'eh?
~-~-~-~-
Finally, around a month before NaNo my plot is picked! I've desided on the 3rd one because it just seems so NaNoish and fun to write. I've got my word file all ready and I've started scratching down ideas and writing up a ruff outline! Things are chuffing along quite nicely.
~-~-~-~-
And last but not least my very own writing propt blog. Its not mad yet, but when it is I will add a post to this blog saying so and giving you a link. I know theres a lot of writing promt blogs out there, but mine will work like this. You are givien an object in your story and a list of questions and you must answer them by drawing a sketch. Doesn't have to be a good drawing, and more importantly you won't have to show anybody, but the fact is you have a perfect description of an important/unimportant/now to be come an imporant object which should help you with your story/writers block.
Heres a sample:
A lamp shade! Don't forget to choose this answers by what the owner would have/like
What colour.:
What is the pattern.:
Where is it in the room.:
Is it well taken care of.:
Theres not always the same questions for them. And it can be any kind of item. Also this new blog will have a muse jump start word war where I set you a challenge or time and worlds.
