This year is the year. I know it.
I've been trying Nano for years, and every year I think 'this year is the year'. But this year, 2007, really is. I'm absolutely determined.
So, what's the difference?
I like to think I'm a better writer. I'm in college now. I'm not doing maths anymore. And I'm a whole year older than I was last year.
Really, there isn't much difference, and I'm still suffering a distint lack of an idea. But that's okay! Because in 2007 I am going to make it!
My main problem with Nano has been writing something that I don't feel. And if you don't feel it, then what's the point? There is none. Because you're heart's not there and you don't spend every spare moment of every day thinking about it. I need an idea I can feel. So, this is this year's plan:
There is no plan. I usually plan everything. Characters, lines, ideas and even what will happen in every chapter. But this time, I will start writing without even having an idea in my head. I can feel free at last. I'm not restrained to certain ideas and writing something because it's important to the next chapter. I can write whatever I want and hopefully, it will feel brilliant.
It's scary though. For somebody who plans everything this is a terrifying prospect, and one that fills me with dread.
I need to kill the editor this year, even if it requires desperate measures. The editor will die. Mwahaha!
The worst thing about November is going to be my history essay. Damn Dave for not giving it to us in October... *woe*
Oh well. Good luck to me for Nano 2007.
