Noises and Kisses

I stole a meme about NaNo :)


AT THE START: DO YOU:
Have an outline? Nope!
Scene-by-scene? I'm not sure what this means... I write by the seat of my pants with very little planning
Know how it starts? I do now! That makes me happy, cause I had NO clue.
Know how it ends? As all romance novels do: with a happily ever after
Have your climax in order? Uhh.... not really... like I said, I don't plan
Know your main characters yet? Yuppers I do. His name is Herbert but prefers to go by Cole
Have a particular tone in mind? Maybe?
Plan to draw on your own experiences? Not really...
IS YOUR WORK GOING TO BE:
Funny? Yes, cause that's how I roll
Serious? In some spots, maybe
Sad? Possibly, I don't know yet
Semi-Autobiographical? Of course! Cause, ya know, I'm a guy, have run away to join the circus, and fallen in love with the Devil's son.
Based on another story? Not really. One of the characters/the setting is based off of a CD though
HOW HAVE MUCH YOU PLANNED? HAVE YOU USED:
A paper journal? Yup! I write on graph paper
Pens? Duh. I don't like pencils
Multicoloured pens? Actually, yes. I normally write in purple, but I LOVE writing in two different colors
A computer? Kinda
Index cards? Never used em for stories
Bulleted lists? Maybe? Wait! Yes!
Plot charts? Nope
Character charts? Nope
Character formulas? Huh?
Favourite writing resource? My brain.
ODDS AND ENDS:
A line you would like to use: "Shut up unless you want to end up my new talking head."
A scene you would like to include: Marcus the Zombie eating glass bottles
A concept you would like to explore: How a zombie continually gets out of its cage and eats its keeper ALL THE TIME
A cliché you would like to avoid: I don't know. I kinda like cliches.
A character you would like to use: Vladimir Dracula. He'll be in there, oh ya.
FORWARD THINKING:
Do you expect to be able to complete it? Of course
Do you intend to complete it? Yes!
Would you ever try to publish it? Maybe one day. I'm excited by this story!
What do you expect to get out of this month of frantic writing? A completely awesome and totally rad story :D
I CAN'T WAIT FOR NANOWRIMO!!!!

  1. Your story honestly sounds like it's going to be so much fun. But HOW can you not like pencils?

  2. I don't like pencils cause they fade and smear and you end up losing all work cause it fades away into nothing.

  3. But they have erasers... *sigh* to each his own, I guess.

  4. Some pens have erasers too. I guess it also goes along with I prefer to write on the computer rather than paper. All I do with paper is write down quick ideas and just crossing it out doesn't bother me much.

    But power to ya if you like to use pencils!
