Writing Hell 3.1

Happy March! The month of green, I think (because it is the color that I think of when I think March).

After a month without this, let's get back to work! Writing Hell, March first, 2012.  This time, I plan on posting every day.  I've gotten really bad.

So, this Writing Hell will last for 5 days.  In those 5 days, I plan to write a total of 15k. 3k a day.  I plan on not dying, even though I do have a research project to start writing too.



Excerpt from ENIGMA:



Starting word count: 3952
Ending word count: (expected) 6952

Advanced Placement

For those American students, you know what AP classes are.  And for the next year, I plan on taking 3, along with some Honors classes, and marching band first semester.  Watch me die this school year of 2012-2013.

And, as I think about it, I realize that so much is different now.  I'm going to be in AP classes.  I don't feel like an upperclassman (even though I've got a few months).  And then school's almost over!  At this rate, I'll be section leader for band in the fall.  Another factoid that will lead to my demise.

For this summer, I really hope I can just enjoy it.  I think I'll get some community service done, and start running (in preparation for band, and maybe tennis/track).

I have summer goals, I guess.  Let's just hope I can achieve them.

And now my random update is done. Ta-ta!

New Year's Resolution!

For 2011, my New Year's Resolution was to write three novels. I wrote two and a fourth. Or two and two sevenths, but I think the former sounds better.



This year, I plan on doing a few more things (which is probably silly, considering I'll be entering Junior year of high school) like...
  • Complete three novels OR finish writing a series/trilogy (Nightland is a four-book series; Rush is the first in a trilogy)
  • Edit one of my completed projects until I'm happy with it
  • Read 100 books
  • Be nicer to people
And those are my resolutions for 2012. I hope to get a jump start, considering how I have a whole week for break. Plus, I'll have a three day week in the middle of January. Then comes the two semester projects I'll receive... Oh what fun comes with this new year.

So, what are your New Year Resolutions?
