Just set your own. It can be like 42319 if you want.

Kat Dakuu 04-21-2016 11:27 PM

yeah, you can type in whatever.

I've been sitting on this half finished avi for days, but thanks. I do have a high range of avi types. XD

Shadami 04-22-2016 12:57 AM

i might try it than. this month i mean. But definetly will try in July. I may use it to write stuff up for the URE. xD

Kat Dakuu 04-22-2016 01:00 AM

yeah, it's a lot less stress because you can set your goal for whatever and write or even using novemeber to write and camp to edit. I know a lot of people do that.

Shadami 04-22-2016 01:17 AM

i still need to get through to finishing the one i wrote for nano.. hehe... it is so far from finished. xD

xuvrette 04-22-2016 02:21 PM

My current NaNo novel had been going through 3 Nanos, and yet it only reach like... half way? through my already prepared sypnosis.

Kat Dakuu 04-22-2016 05:01 PM

Seems like it must be awful long xuvrette. :/

I haven't really finished much of anything lately except rps in this marked series. I didn't even finish my last nano novel though I only have one chapter left.

Shadami 04-22-2016 05:03 PM

Well I've decided that 50k words isn't actually all that many words. But i do need to get something else going with my story. Or pick up my sky pirates one again. man i was having fun with that.

Kat Dakuu 04-22-2016 05:45 PM

hmmm. Sky pirates sound fun. I think I remember you talking about that one before, perhaps?

Shadami 04-22-2016 07:11 PM

Probably did. i'm rather in love with the story. i just have to get my butt up and do it. It's what i finally worked on during my first nano. i had tons of notes. Got about half way trhough and than got super sick.

OMG I FOUND MY PHONE.

and i've had notes going on it for years. I'm just kind of writing as I go. I have a half plot but not a story.

xuvrette 04-23-2016 02:57 PM

Dakuu : ya, last Nano, the total word count is up to 275k. It would not be a book I want to read. :/ Kinda stressful to read so many words.
Only one chapter left? aww, I would have finish it! SO close.

Shadamimi : your phone? When was it lost and where you found it?
I like the idea of Sky pirate.

Shadami 04-23-2016 11:05 PM

its a inspired by ummm.. crap.. the amber spyglass series, and skies of arcadia the video game.

woah. the book you wrote xuvrette is 275k words? :O woW!

i found my phone folded in the blankets on my bed next to my computer keyboard. I don't have a desk anymore. xD cause all my things had to be stuffed into one room until I get moved out.

Kat Dakuu 04-24-2016 12:53 AM

Sha: [feesh] Write the thing! You sound excited about it.

Rette: I know right? X.X I just lot my steam and jumped on other projects and haven't been able to jump back in. Lately I only rp for writing and have done almost nothing for myself. I just can't get into it. I don't have a lot of time and rping feels easier even if half the time it's not much more casual in terms of character and plotting.

But um yeah....I thought Life Studies was bad when it ended at something like 180k. Rp was a wandering and long winded beast.

Bearzy 04-24-2016 01:56 AM

My novel is sitting at about 83k right now, and it's maybe going to reach 100k in this first draft? The second draft will be longer though, I know that for sure.

Shadami 04-24-2016 02:00 AM

well i can't write the thing right now. I have to finish my move. move date is anywhere between now and june 21st. and i'm pretty sure my notes are in one of the packed boxes already....

but hey i'll get back to it at some point. it was really fun to write . i don't have a story layout though. i was just kind of writing.

xuvrette 04-24-2016 04:34 AM

Shadamimi~ I suppose, after I finish the first draft, the editing would bring down the word count... hopefully. x.x
You are moving? Is it far? cause moving is hectic... *faints*

Dakuu~ I so wish I have your situation of last chapter! At least that would prompt me to finally finish a story.

I think I have a bit more time for July, feel like having the total word count up to 300k for the next November NaNo.

Bearzy 04-24-2016 04:45 AM

I managed to finish a chapter today! I'll be starting chapter 53 tomorrow evening!

xuvrette 04-24-2016 06:14 AM

Oh wow! Great break through!
*cheers*

Bearzy 04-24-2016 10:33 AM

Thank you Xuvie!!

Shadami 04-24-2016 09:44 PM

chapter 53. holy cow.

my chapters are really long. >.> <.< i don't care. actually i think i'm on chapter 4 or 5 of my sky pirates one.

congrats bearzy btw!

its not super far, its still in the same state. but its.. 60-70 miles away i think is the number.

Bearzy 04-24-2016 11:57 PM

My chapters are quite short actually, only about 1500-2000 words. They'll be longer in the second draft, but for now they're basically one day's nano goal long [lol]. When I started this project I didn't expect to get so attached to it.

Shadami 04-25-2016 12:06 AM

that's fantastic ^^ I can't go yup end of chapter. i just. kinda write. xD

Bearzy 04-25-2016 12:20 AM

I'm a drama slut when I'm writing. I love to create tension with my chapter endings.

Shadami 04-25-2016 12:27 AM

i write to much to hit the drama points? i have no idea. xD or i'm not dramatic enough to find a good chapter ending. i'm still learning to be awesome like everyone else. xD

xuvrette 04-25-2016 03:27 PM

Drama point? What is that?
Another term for... cliff hang?
