    Tom was taken, so I am DRRM. It's a combination of GRRM and DM I think is witty, cause my players say I channel GRRM since I'm a fat bearded guy with a similar hat who kills the characters they love.

    I don't know who these jackasses are who insist on using my name. Can you beleive this kid in High School called himself Tom too? Had to lay down the law. Think we called him Kevin.

    Day Two of NaNoWriMo!

    xD I was 100 words short yesterday, but honestly I didn't want to stress out over it. This week has been hell: lots of homework and a head-cold making it nigh impossible to make sense of that homework. Missed my dog's vet appointment. Heater is broken. Then I wrote two scenes for Chapter Fifteen of Frost Moon (Chapter 13 and 14 have been finished for a few weeks: I need to polish them up and then they will probably be posted sometime this month), falling short of 100 words by 11PM at night didn't seem quite so bad. I'm just happy I wrote 1500 words on a day where my brain was functioning about as well as a broken windmill.

    Trying to trudge my way through homework before I start writing for the day. I want to finish Chapter Fifteen and start Chapter Sixteen. X.X let's see if that happens!

    Wishing this extra-strength Acetaminophen would kick in and hoping everyone else is having much better luck,

    Day Three of NaNoWriMo!

    Hit the 5k mark with a couple hundred to spare. Finished Chapter Fifteen and Chapter Sixteen! Which means there are now 4 completed Frost Moon Chapters that will be polished and submitted this month. Who knew having an outline could be so helpful?

    Schoolwork is still beating my brains to a pulp, but I seem to be winning the battle with this cold.

    It would be nice to get a few days ahead in my word count this first weekend of NaNo, but I'm not gonna beat myself up over it if I can't make that happen.

    Day Six of NaNoWriMo!

    Supposed to hit the 10k mark today. I am approaching the halfway point of the entire novel, which is really exciting. After a double-chapter feature for one of the brothers, I'll have made it to Chapter 20 out of (roughly) 41. It really does pay off to have an outline. It really really does. xD

    Chapters 13, 14, 15, 16 and now 17 have been written and added to the 'edit later' pile.

    Currently at 8k, hoping to get ahead this Sunday since I have a busy next couple of days.

    I hope everyone else is fairing well. :)

    I've been home since monday and my writing always suffers in the home enviroment. So far I've written 2,500 words in four days. Come the weekend I'm back at work. I'll catch up then. You just see if I don't.......

    I'm at 2100 on Day 2, but I haven't actually sat down and written much today, so I'm probably going to reach 3300 by the time I go to bed. >:)

    UPDATE:  3,581 as of midnight. I made it! :D

    I didn't, but I usually catch up later. Last NaNo, I started late, as Sotek had to pull my arm to join. LOL

    Last night I had about 883 words, but forgot to update Nano. Today, added another 1235 words to that, for a three day total of 3615. Not bad. I tend to start a bit slow, but gain momentum and more importantly, a PoV for CA is done, so stuff will get posted soon.

    Jesus, I don't know how you guys do it. School this year has just crushed all my creative spirit to dust.
