So. Who's doin' NaNoWriMo?

ETA: Talk amongst yourselves - my to-do list has actually become a Need-To-Do list.

Nope.

inorite?

I should stick up an EP as well, but I fear that suddenly my slowtimes might start again tonight or summat.

Ah, to hell with it *opens SEMagic*
innerbrat: (smart)

[personal profile] innerbrat 2008-10-30 12:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Francesca, I think. She's already got two slowtimes in existence, so it cuts down my need to use LJ Login.
innerbrat: (squee)

[personal profile] innerbrat 2008-10-30 12:37 pm (UTC)(link)
And she's in.

Nope!

WriSoMiFu is aaaaaaaaaall I need. If nothing else, the mod-posts in that comm just crack me the hell up.

Oh, it's wonderful, Steph! It's really, really lovely. We try to write our ten minutes a day, we all take the piss out of ourselves, and everyone is encouraging everyone else anyway.

It's just...lovely.

I actually missed it - I was beaming so much when we had the first big "Right, MiFus! It's that time of year again" post.

*hearts [livejournal.com profile] wrisomifu*

And you never know, I may even get to do all those OOMs I keep telling myself to do for, oh. Everyone. Laziness, I has it.

...Also insomnia.

ETA: *grins wryly* But there's a DE for you "what are the plots you'd love to put in place, if only you had the energy"

Re: Plots

ONE DAY, I am going to bring Roderick Usher back.

And there will be a House of Usher plot.

One day.

One day, I will send Dara through canon.

One day...ah, crap.

I HAVE LOTS OF PLOTS I WOULD DO. BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER THEM!

But, eee, Roderick! House of Usher!

(also, I have a CD that has a track (not a song, as such) inspired by that story. Gives me the damn creeps)
calluna: (little flowers)

[personal profile] calluna 2008-10-30 12:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh? I have a bunch of Usher-inspired songs that I found on the internets. :o Which is it? I may have it!

Also, I just signed up for [livejournal.com profile] wrisomifu (HI I CAN SPELL). If there's anything that gets me through this next month filled with academic papers, THAT WILL BE IT.

That and lots of coffee.

Peter Miller's....um. I think it's called Diary of Madeline Usher. A woman walking in what I always thought was an underground carpark, but is obviously a tomb, just her footsteps going from one speaker to another (this is the main reason I know it - as her footsteps move seemlessly across the audio range, it's perfect for testing out speakers), with a ticking watch/clock. Sometimes, she says "I have a dreadful fear of premature burial", sometimes she cries. But mostly, it's just the footsteps and the ticking watch.

I HATE it. Hate, hate, hate. But, um. Claustraphobic due a nightmare, and it's mildly triggering.

...I like most of the other tracks on the CD? As they are awesomely, delicately haunting and intersting and DIFFERENT even from each other. But that one I can't stand. Still! It's, um, inspired by your canon.

And, muahahah. Muahaha. Excellent *steeples fingers* My second recruit!

*pats*

I'd be cool with it if the woman would just...not be there. I'm sure I'll find it useful to writing a ghost against or something.

BUT!

I am glad you are now a fellow MiFu.

Stupidly, yes! I'm churning out first drafts on three or four enormous bunnies that I've had floating around forever. I mean, I might as well, right?

I am still balking on official commitment, as the last thing I need is another deadline and project, but...

... there are things I want to write, and NaNo might be the way to kick myself into actually doing it.

I am torn. :(

And boy you better believe I'm making more tea.

You betcha!

and as of last night I'm tempted to do fic for it. I suspect it's out of the need for instant gratification.

Even if I had the time, I don't think I have a novel in me right now.

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-10-30 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not, but I did have the disorienting experience of hearing someone refer to it IRL for the first time in class yesterday.

I am, I need to get over my fear of word counts and also I have tons of ideas for Tiwa.

[identity profile] moofoot.livejournal.com 2008-10-30 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I most likely am not. I'm going to edit my novel from last year that way it can be printed.
