NaNoWriMo- Week One

So. It's already been a week since November, and more importantly, NaNoWriMo has begun. And I did a stupid thing: I decided to restart my novel. I had been planning on continuing on a novel I had started earlier this year, but I just wasn't feeling it.

So the novel I'm starting for NaNoWriMo is called VANISH. It's mystery/thriller YA novel, and I'm in love with how it's turning out. So I think for this month, I'll be focusing on plotting and writing the first draft, and maybe editing and rewriting if I get it done early. But yeah! I really love all the plot twists I have planned out for the book. And it'll definitely make you question not only the main character's sanity, but your own as well. MWAHAHAHAHAAA. xD But I'm quite proud of how it's turning out! It's definitely an emotional rollercoaster, with a betrayal right in the beginning of the book.

I love it.

SO MUCH.

So I may or may not be crazy. I just thank the dear Lord above that I didn't decide to switch novels later on in the month. THANK YOU GOD.

But yeah, I'm still alive!

Love you guys!

A Welcoming Post of Sorts

Hello there! This is my first post on a new blog- the beginning of an epic adventure. Now this adventure is one you haven't heard of before: my life (in which nothing ever happens and you have to read through my rambles. MWAHAHAHA. xD) and my experience with writing. So this blog is mostly about writing, but there might be some tidbits from my personal life in some posts. I'm going to attempt to update every week... I'm not sure if that's going to happen. xD So I'm currently on the first draft of my first actual novel. I'm trying my hardest to stick with it and not abandon it like I have with so many other attempts, because it has such a promising plot line and it just feels... right. Like with all my other attempts, they were just... BLAH, and this one feels so AWESOME. I feel like I've finally found my voice with this one. And I am definitely going to tell you when I need beta readers! And hey, if you like my blog, maybe tell your friends about i...

back from the dead // some life updates, the future of this blog, and new projects

*rises from the dead* Well. I'm alive! It's only been... *checks calendar* oh, you know... almost six years since I updated my blog. Oops. life updates Where to start? My last update was on the cusp of the beginning of my sophomore year, and boy oh boy did a LOT of stuff change. Sophomore year was hectic and quite honestly... I don't remember most of it. As far as junior year goes, I was part of my high school's production of Newsies in November, entered a relationship in January 2019, got voted for prom court... then that relationship turned incredibly toxic and I blanked out for a solid four months at the end of it.  I don't remember most of my senior year, unfortunately.  I broke up with that person in December 2019, started dating someone else in February 2020... And then the pandemic hit. I somehow graduated high school, went to college for a semester and then moved back home. I met my current boyfriend in real life for the first time in July 2020 (it's hi...

So I've already started a Google Form for a beta reader sign-up. If you're interested, please sign up! *NOTE* It will  be a little while before I start sending it out to people. It needs a LOT of polishing up. But I'm asking around for betas now so that I don't have to do it later. xD So  here  is the link. So that's all for the beta readers right now... AH. BOOKS. Also, later this year, I might be going to meet my favorite author?!! So her name is Jacqueline West, and she is SO AMAZING. AHHHHHHHH. SO you can find her blog  here . It's so pretty and sophisticated and AH. I really want to go to one of her events...  So I'm already almost done with my first draft?!! GAH. I think I might finish the first draft today. Maybe.
