 |  This is a continuation of my blogging here at WdC |
|
This will be a blog for my writing, maybe with (too much) personal thrown in. I am hoping it will be a little more interactive, with me answering questions, helping out and whatnot. If it falls this year (2024), then I may stop the whole blogging thing, but that's all a "wait and see" scenario. An index of topics can be found here: "Writing Blog No.2 Index"  Feel free to comment and interact. |
| NaNoWriMo #18 Day 18. Holy crap, what a day! Almost 10k words today… because the characters told me what was going to happen. I killed a couple of characters off… including one who I was sure was going to survive. It has increased the tension inside the hut. And then one of the animals managed to get in through a broken window. The narrator managed to kill it with an extension cord while one of the others hit it with a pick-axe. An off-screen death, a tragic death scene, a commitment to a divorce, a lot of recriminations, emotions everywhere… My brain feels like mush. Hopefully I can finish this one tomorrow, then hit the demon woman story… Sorry, I want to give more detail on how this happened, but it just happened. I started to write and the characters argued, and they went outside, and… it happened. Attack… death… It was what I needed. I was talking myself out of killing some people; I had to let the deaths go ahead. It was what the story needed to have more pathos and more emotion, and to let the reader know the stakes are really that serious. It is exhausting writing so many words in a day. I’m going to bed.
