Re: Re: Re: Hmmmm... what's going on?
Thank you, QueenNormaJean maybesnow?! Author Icon, Schnujo's Doing NaNoWriMo? Author Icon, MsPhy Author Icon, Olivia: it's NaNo-Time 18000 Author Icon, BrandiwynšŸŽ¶ Author Icon, azrael Author Icon.

MsPhy Author Icon *Laugh* 3 cities? Timeline issues? I'm scared to tackle the timeline stuff... OMG! That's exactly what is happening when a minor character tries to outshine the main lead. You described that so well. I was trying to figure out what had happened. So, that's normal. I'll do just like what you say, let them drag me around in November and hope I survive.

Schnujo's Doing NaNoWriMo? Author Icon You are so right. I should do that. I think I struggle writing a novel so much because this kind of thing happens in the midst of writing, and then, I don't want to write it anymore because I don't know what's going to happen. Prepping definitely helps.

Olivia: it's NaNo-Time 18000 Author Icon Thank you... I had to laugh when you said "censurably less stressful, painstaking and enraging." Yeah... enraging is the right word... And you are right... this is probably why I'm not finishing my prep... *Facepalm* They are holding me hostage... so I just have to let it flow............ and let it go...

QueenNormaJean maybesnow?! Author Icon I'm glad to know that's normal. I've seen chats in Oct Prep forums about how characters go astray but don't recognise it when it's happening to me. So, this is how it looks like...

azrael Author Icon Glad to know no amount of preps would stop this from happening... *Laugh*

BrandiwynšŸŽ¶ Author Icon Have I level up? *Rolling* It's about time... Oh dear... I've joined Oct Prep for many years, but I usually don't know what I'm doing. I think this is the first year I'm finally getting it... like... ohhhhhh... That's why we are doing this. I'm a very slow learner. *Facepalm*.
